I agree with posters above that Liza’s problem is layout related. Let’s take the Finlandia LP as an example - 2 skaters with 3As, yet Aliona’s base value was 8 points higher than Liza’s. Both had 1 call: 1 UR for Aliona and an edge call on Liza’s 3F. But Liza also popped her important 3 jump combo in the 2nd half into a double Sal and didn’t even attempt a 3-3, plus lost levels on non-jump elements. These half points here and there add up and affect the factored GOE, which only makes it harder for her to catch up.
