Both Julia and Ashley looked great, IMO. I thought that Ashley should have received the higher score, though, mainly due to her interpretation of the piece--very eerie and spot-on.
There was never a "case open." This is just a skating message board, not an inquisition or a court of law.
Fans (me included) will always have a beef or two or three with ISU judges and CoP, as long as the world turns.
Well exactly. If Julia makes the same mistakes in her FS as she did at COC - she will probably lose, as both Ashley and Liza skating clean would probably overtake her. However, if Julia skates clean, she will win.
i've seen julia's skate now. To me, she is a basically a junior skater with a pretty good 3-3 and a lot of flexibility. Her jumps are very small. Gracie gold's 3-3 is much more impressive, not to mention yu na's.

Julia's jumps are not small. You have simply picked that idea up from other posters. Her jumps may look small, but that is only because she is physically small. Relative to her own height, her jumps are completely normal in height.
You seem to have a beef with most of the ISU judges, though, since most of them scored Julia pretty highly.
If someone were to ask "Where's the beef?" -- I think they would find you chewing on it!
10 of 10 for effort, although I don't agree with any of it!![]()
Likewise![]()
Only after you had finished with it yourself - and then there wouldn't be much left![]()

The pot calling the kettle black.
I hope your comment made you feel better.
Nope. This kind of back and forth triviata only makes out-of-control, 3-year-old egos feel better (and we all have them, whether you realize it or not). Guess your "case" was never really closed, but I'm removing my ego from this nonsense. Enjoy the skaters you love.![]()
Absolutely not true. I have seen her jumps with my own eyes. Feel free to see my comments about her tiny double axel on the Cup of China thread, posted several weeks ago. Tiny girls can have big jumps, by the way. See Midori Ito.Julia's jumps are not small. You have simply picked that idea up from other posters.
No, girl. Midori is 4'9 and she jumped like a throw.Julia's jumps are not small. You have simply picked that idea up from other posters. Her jumps may look small, but that is only because she herself is physically small. Relative and proportionate to her own height, her jumps are completely normal in height. As she grows, so therefore will the height of her jumps.
What myth? You can't see she has a bad 2A?The other myth that is being put about is that she has a poor 2A. Nonsense. Again, it reminds me of Tara Lipinski's. Whilst it is not her best jump, as with Lipinski it is not going to cause her any problems as there will never be any need for her to upgrade it to a 3A
