Final Cup of Russia

[chasingneverland]

So Eteri will go 1-2-3 with her juniors. Seems familiar somehow. lol

As is tradition.

 

[Lzbee]

A smile at the end. This competition doesn't really matter for Kamila anyway but probably not great to be beaten by Kromykh.

 

[ruga]

Maya may end up winning.

Kamila's tech is higher now somehow and she has a huge lead since SP, but Maiia may win FP though.

 

[Jontor]

Is Maiia K going to win?

No, Kamila had a HUGE lead from the short.

 

[Skatesocs]

Kromykh probably does win the LP, but the comp goes to the one with 88 points in the SP lol.

 

[rollerblade]

Hmm. The opening minute is made worse by including the 4S, fall or no fall. The pseudo spread eagle squat was moved up in the program too, wasn't it?

 

[chasingneverland]

Kamila had a big lead from the SP, no chance

Kamila will have a higher TES even with the falls in the FS anyway

 

[Minz]

Yikes. I can’t believe that bolero is the program they are keeping, storm is miles better. She just skates through the music, whereas in storm she skates to the music. She’ll still win this though...

I know, I wish that they’d keep storm.

 

[nussnacker]

But Maiia sure made a case for herself for next season, guess Rusfed will finally start taking her seriously.

 

[emmaleemochizuki]

It's starting to look like trusova's skating when its ultra c after ultra c

 

[Jontor]

She only needs 147+ to beat Maiia.

 

[Minz]

No, Kamila had a HUGE lead from the short.

That’s what they say. You can’t win it in the short but you can certainly loose it.

 

[rollerblade]

Oh right, I forgot.... 2 falls. Go straight to bed, no dinner.... and no bed either!

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Maya may end up winning.

She'd totally deserve it!
Edit: didn't happen, though

 

[Jontor]

Oh, that was close!

 

[emmaleemochizuki]

Can I just say I can't get enough of watching Eteri

 

[nussnacker]

Maiia won the FS, congrats Maiia Biene

 

[chasingneverland]

Ooh closer than I thought...still wins though.

 

[yume]

As is tradition.

Juniors win senior competitions, novices win junior competitions.

 

[Shayuki]

Yeah, both the second 4T as well as the 4S were landed fully forward and should be downgrades.

I appreciate that she went for a more ambitious layout but definitely wasn't ready this time.

Also, shame that the SPs cost Khromykh the win, she really would have deserved it after the season she's had, especially after Medvedeva personally dragged her through the mud a couple weeks ago.
