2020 Cup of Russia: Stage II

[elektra blue]

Don't get why she was 5 points ahead in the SP.

bonus points on spins

bonus points on spins

Daria got the bonuses, too. Valieva was just really generously scored. Daria was too... but not as generously

 

[flanker]

I'm pleasantly surprised for Daria that we're actually discussing her chance to beat Kamila!

I am happy for Daria but somehow not happy about the users who are brushing their teeth to tear Kamila apart. I guess the next thee days we will read about what's actually so bad, how she's overscored and othe BS.

Yeah, but Kamila had a really bad skate whereas Daria skated two absolutely clean programs and still didn‘t beat her. This isn‘t too encouraging, imo.

But good for her on being so consistent this early in the season anyway. It‘s a pleasant surprise after how much she struggled early last year and at the test skates too. I love this new confidence for her!

Kamila will come back, she had a shaky start at the JGP too and then won JWC and JGPF. She‘ll be fine. It‘s just a lot of pressure on her right now...

And Sasha:

I should remind that Sasha got bonuses today as well (as I predicted), just before anyone will start to rant about it

 

[Hyena]

I would have given higher PCs to daria than to Kamila

Yeah, it makes absolutely NO sense for her to be third in PCS behind both Kamila and Sasha. She definitely should have the highest based on today.

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Sasha looks so happy

bonus points on spins

Dasha got bonus points, too. PCS made the most of SP difference in which Kamila was really overscored.

And Sasha:

Daria messed up her last spin and only got level 3, that meant she also lost a bonus point. So she wasn't superclean.

Yes, Daria was visibly nervous too but she still tried to interpret the music and perform for the audience. I was rooting for Sasha but it was obvious Daria skated the most fluid program today.

 

[flanker]

Plushenko looks like Plushenko. Eteri somehow looked like Sergei Dudakov the last time

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Hihi, Plushy got a medal as well

Thanks, I must have missed that. Without that, she‘d probably have won silver, then...

 

[icybear]

Daria should have had the highest pcs of the 3 today. As hard as Plushenko and his team are forcing the ice princess look on Alexandra she still looks like she's churning out a series of movement that she's being programmed to display.

I wasn't trying to put down Kamila, rather it's good for Daria that she can be considered competitive with Kamila's level

[Thrashergurl]

The overscoromg of Kamila will not gain her many fans. She clearly should be third overall. Why are they trying so hard to hand her wins?

Sasha wasn't meant to be an ice princess in this program. She is skating the story, not Juliet.

 

[Hyena]

I'm guessing she also meant to do a 3Lz+3T, instead of a 3Lz+2T for her first pass? But someone correct me if I'm wrong about this.

 

[P44]

I didn't remember Kamila had this voice
