I understand why Lipnitskaya gets higher PCS. Because her flexible movements that most people dislike are actually difficult transitions. And I think she deserves that score, she has that "wow" factor. The crowd always goes crazy after her unique spins at the end of program. She does something original that nobody in the current field can do, right? But of course I agree that she is not mature, and skating with no sense except ambition.
This is correct. The judges are keeping it close. Her PCS, rightfully so, I 'm guessing, is much higher.
Actually looking at it now I agree. I haven't read the protocols but I'm guessing the TES is correct; her PCS relative to Julia's are much higher as you say. I am okay with this result.
Way to go, Ashley!
I don't care about Lip's jumping and contortionist abilities, she lacks musical interpretation and maturity. I would have Ashley in first, with slightly higher scores on TR and CH at the least.
Yes, this makes sense, I think, but I would prefer Tuktamysheva's mature interpretation over Julia's "circus contortionist-like" program!I understand why Lipnitskaya gets higher PCS.

And now Julia gets an edge call on her 3Lz. In China she got an edge call on her 3Flip. This is strange. Both Polina and Liza got low levels on spins. Polina had her 3Loop URed. Liza's GOE was overall modest. I thought her 2A was to die for
She has much higher scores on both TR and CH. It was the TES that got her.
