[Sam-Skwantch]

Thanks to every for posting links and the great play by play but I can't keep watching without sound. Hopefully there will be some YouTube videos at some point. Enjoy everyone and go Julia!!

Next group:

Laurine Lecavelier FRA: Competed junior internationally but is being sent over more deserving senior. Typical french pick!
Dasa Grm SLO: Back at Euros after Glescic retired. Still havent figured out how to pronounce her name.
Marta Garcia ESP: First time Spain sends a second lady!
Anita Madsen DEN: It's all about her coaches
Danielle Montalbano ISR: Decided to try singles again after a failed partnership with Krasnapolski who is competing here with his new partner.

I like Daša Grm, but if the girl pops her 2A again as she always does, I'm going to drive to Budapest personally and shake some sense into her: this time, at least go through with it, even if you fall or 2-foot it!

The PCS is a little weird indeed. There is a 21+ total point difference between first and last place, but less than 3 points overall in PCS.

Everyone was more or less equally terrible in the presentation department.

I don't think anybody deserved higher scores but a number of skaters certainly deserved lower ones.

Dasa Grm SLO: Back at Euros after Glescic retired. Still havent figured out how to pronounce her name.

My guess: GY-rym

Also: First time ever, I am not saying 'NOT AGAIN' after seeing a skater competing to "Carmen."

Anita Madsen DEN: It's all about her coaches

They are both SO HOT.

Dasa Grm SLO: Still havent figured out how to pronounce her name.

Just like the commentator does.

 

[Ziggy]

Finally somebody presenting the program really well! Go Lecavalier!

The post-zamboni PCS bump will be well deserved in this case.

LECAVELIER, Laurine FRA

Carmen by Lana del Rey!!!!!! Now this Carmen I can hear again.
3Lz-2T shaky landing
3F, hand down
Flying Camel Spin
CoF Combo Spin
2A
Layback
Some voidy steps to finish.

Pumps fist. Sloppy jumps but landed. Should lead. The program was interesting but fell flat in the end.

LOL they deserve the best PCS in interpretation and performance

 

[SaraM]

First 3-3 attempt, Daša Grm falls on second tripple... :/

 

[Frenchie]

OK, bye, I'm leaving for Budapest now.

 

[machin]

Grm is coached by Dorofejev !!! First time I see one of her student.

Lol. Don't bother, she's a hopeless case. Very inconsistent.

GRM, Dasa SLO

Tamara Dorofejev as her coach!
Sassy movements to start
Went for 3T-3T but ugly fall
3F, fall again
1A disaster!
Flying sit spin
Circular step sequence, first one so far I think.
CoF Combo
Sloow layback

Meltdown. She seemed very cautioous befoer every jump and it cost her. All excitement and effor of presentaion died out quickly after the jumps. Looks really dissapointed.

A sighting of Kryger sitting next to Jorik Hendrickx in the audience.

START THE ROMANCE RUMOUR MILL!!!1!

Just to balance out all the drooling you girls are doing over the coaches...

I have always tended to find French girls attractive.

But Laurine LECAVELIER is seriously HOT!!!

Dasa Grm SLO: Back at Euros after Glescic retired. Still havent figured out how to pronounce her name.

Hang on, Gleščič has retired?!

Ach, I always thought she was hot too!

GARCIA, Marta ESP

Awesome voidy costume!!
The sound is really bad or is it jst me
2Lo-2T
3S
CoF Combo Spin
2A - lovely flow
Flying sit spin
Steps dont go at all with the music
Layback with Bielmann to finish.

Low levels on everything, but presented very well and she just seemed so happy to be here. Should be proud of herself despite the results.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

So according to the "Zamboni PCS Bump" theory does That mean Julia will get an extra level of PCS bump than Adelina? I think there will be a resurfacing right before that last group.

How do you know what our sex and/or gender is? You shouldn't be jumping to conclusions.

GARCIA, Marta ESP
2Lo-2T

She did do a 3Lo2T, but she must have gotten 3Lo<2T
