2025-26 Channel One Cup

That's what I want, both B/K and M/G delivering at their best.

Actually I thought M/G looked a bit tired.

Well, to me it's just a show event, not really super important. That's why I relax and totally enjoy myself with the world's best figure skaters.

Liza probably stopped a little early, maybe she thought when they go too slow it doesn't really count anymore?

Surprisingly low for S/B?

They started with a tight position, so they couldn't use the angular momentum later on like the others.

Still M/U couldn't hold it longer either.

 

[Mathematician]

Quite impressive from P/Ch

Too bad this event does not give PCS points for execution.

There definitely needs to be at least a minor multiple or even some constant amount of points added on.

 

[Mathematician]

Ustenko is smart!

Constant points will not change the outcome. It's the potential point spread among the teams that makes the difference.

Why was the clock stopped so early?

Ustenko is smart!

They won this contest at two previous events.

Probably the judges saw change of edge or something.

They got these points later anyway.

What do you mean? A constant I mean a set-value bonus added onto their time based on the difficulty of their position.

They counted the entire time after re-watching. Ustenko is clever he didn't drop her after the horn.

Usually, Katya usually looks at the stopwatch in this lift. And now, because the time was stopped earlier, it seems to have confused them. But nice that they held on anyway.

Ok, a positional base value makes sense.

Yea, "positional base value" is a better way to put it.

Soloviov: would be great to have such replay at every event.

It was a bit difficult to see when exactly they start counting, resp. when they considered the starting position reached.
