2025 JGP Baku Women's Free Skate

Going back to Panova has definitely been the right choice for Sophia. I'll be honest, she does not draw me in as much as some of Panova's other skaters do, but overall a strong skate for her.
Tech panel might hurt her chances here, but she has put herself (back) on the radar.
 
I actually want to reiterate that this tech panel was odd, for a lack of better words. Some skaters were treated very harshly, while others were treated much more kindly, and not neccessarily the ones I would have expected before the event.

Ope, just looked at the tech panel and things make a little more sense now. I don't want to think badly of people but....

Does it change the composition of the JGPF?
 
Depending on how the rest of the jgp unfolds, more likely it wouldn't change the composition of the gpf, but it would have changed the podium
Heard that the technical controller is from Israel?

I don't think so, so that's good at least. I just don't like it when the different standards within a competition are very obvious, it feels a bit icky even if the standings themselves turn out fine.

Big differences in generosity are not great across different panels (see this Ice Dance panel vs the one at the Italian JGP for example), but feel less calculated. 🙈
 
From what i can see, Canadian referee, and tech controllers from Israel, Slovakia and Turkiye
 
Yuseong with a beautiful dress, I love the sparkly pendants at the waist. She lands the 3A! A bit of a wobble after the heel spin in the fly ch combo; love the Ina Bauer out of it - and of course the glorious Ina Bauers in the choreo sequence. I do like the hydroblade at the end of the programme as well.
I think the commentators said the 3A was downgraded but I dont care...I still love her and her style and her artistry. She skated like a senior and she was clearly on a different level than the other skaters.....
 
Mayuko Oka stole the show for me, fantastic performeance. Too bad she didn't win, it was very close..
