2020 Cup of Russia: Stage III

[lariko]

Oh, no, 2Lo... but she got StSq4...

 

[flanker]

One single mistake, but costly

 

[EdgeCall]

Botched combo, no 3-3. Will they push her over 80 anyway? I hope not.

We see many beautiful dresses in FS. This one looks noble.

 

[LadyB]

That dress is beautiful!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Oof, she popped the -3Lo

That must've rattled her, I think this is the first time I've seen her not get a level 4 on a spin

 

[anonymoose_au]

So um please advise me how Anna got a level 4? Her step sequence seemed... uninspired? Like are the levels and GOE based purely on technical stuff?

 

[Jontor]

What happened? She was spitting out those 3Loops in the warm up---and then she just...froze?!?
And lost a level on the spin after...

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Well this will be interesting. Will the judges find a way to hold her up anyway or will Daria take the lead?

 

[lariko]

Ah-hah, expect the long judging session... drama!

 

[elektra blue]

don't be worried for Anna, she will bounce back in the free, after all she has quads and you all know she is a fighter

 

[YuBluByMe]

Scherbakova was snoozy again. I’m still waiting for the SP to grow on me...if it ever does. How costly will the botched combo be?

 

[Baron Vladimir]

I think she messed up her camel spin after the combo mistake. Who would say Daria will win the short

 

[Lunalovesskating]

Oof, she popped the -3Lo

That must've rattled her, I think this is the first time I've seen her not get a level 4 on a spin

It's not the first time. Happend several times last season

 

[Minoru]

3LZ rotated too much?

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Oof, she popped the -3Lo

That must've rattled her, I think this is the first time I've seen her not get a level 4 on a spin

My thoughts exactly. I wonder what her score will be.

 

[readernick]

Well this will be interesting. Will the judges find a way to hold her up anyway or will Daria take the lead?

Daria should lead. Tuk should be second. She popped and the 3Lz was bad. Daria was flawless.

 

[Ichatdelune]

So um please advise me how Anna got a level 4? Her step sequence seemed... uninspired? Like are the levels and GOE based purely on technical stuff?

I'm no expert on the rules, but as far as I know the levels are decided on a purely technical merit like how many difficult steps it has. Interpretation and stuff are judged via PCS.

 

[Lunalovesskating]

She will come back in the Free

 

[Jontor]

Anna is NOT happy...

 

[Hyena]

I wish they would give Anna something like Sofia's alien program. She could deliver it. Her programs tend to be nice but don't make me want to go back and rewatch.

Anna looks angry about the combo. I am 100% confident that it's going to fuel her to be squeaky clean tomorrow, she has that kind of "get angry and deliver on the ice" drive.

And that is...a ridiculously generous score given the mistake on the combo, even with the bonus points.
