2013 Europeans Ladies LP

Was Tuk lowballed esp on PCS??? Grr....

ETA: guess judges had to leave somewhere to go for Sotnikova and Kostner.
 
Gosviani probably gets top 6.

Joshi's program is tacky IMO. I appreciate that she works hard selling it, but it's beneath her and clichéd.
 
Joshi HELGESSON (SWE)

3Lz+2T - no speed coming out of 3Lz, eekes out 2T, maybe UR
3S
3Lo - stepout
CSp
StSq
3Lz - twofoot, stepout
3T+2T+2Lo - perhaps backend UR
ChSq
2A
FCCoSp - bad Biellmann
2T+2T - turn in-between
CCoSp
 
Carolina KOSTNER (ITA)

3Lz - yes!
2A
3F+2T - bit hesitant landing on 3F, could only add 2T
FCoSp
FCSp
3Lo
3T+2T
2S+2T+2Lo
CCoSp
StSq
ChSq
2S - stepout

Solid skate, will lose TES to Tukt, but PCS will keep her ahead I think
 
Disclaimer: I despise Bolero more than any piece of music except Requiem for a Dream, and I'd dock any skater -20 points for using it. But I think Carolina does as good a job as anybody at being able to interpret this vile composition, and at maintaining and building the tension of the piece throughout. She did have mistakes though (doubling salchows?). On balance, I think Tuk should stay in 1st place but I'm sure judges won't agree with me.
