2014 Olympics Ladies Short Program

[Antilopa]

poor girl, i'm crying

 

[elif]

I love this short program. Scores are so close

Mao fell on 3A and doubled loop.

Again I'm saying there is no Russian/Soviet judge in this event.

 

[bartlebooth]

All Japanese ladies bombed

 

[usethis2]

This is a total BS judging. I'm done.

 

[apgold]

3 US Women in the Top 7, wasn't expecting that!

 

[Chemistry66]

Mao.

 

[loop9497]

OMG, how terrible! I am devastated for Mao (and as a fan, too) right now! Literally in tears right now.

 

[ballerynna]

I don't know if she comes off b***** or what, but she comes across like she is trying too hard to be sexy or fierce or something and it just doesn't come across classy or professional like we are used to seeing in figure skating. I prefer a quiet confidence and let the skating do the talking and she comes nowhere close to that. Happy that she delivered tonight though, I never want to see her fail because other than her attitude, her skating can be quite lovely to watch. I just wish she'd keep in mind that she is a lady, not a wannabe sexy skater. Save that for the ice shows.

Okay, personal preference. I get it.

I like having a variety of skaters and personalities on the ice. I don't care about being a lady if that isn't who they are. I think Ashley is fierce and strong and if she doesn't like being a fairy princess I congratulate her. That's just my preference of course

Mao Asada JPN....55.51 (into 16th)

I'm so sad

 

[BostonFan2016]

Hanyu and Chan really Chan get too much focus and adulation from the other skaters ---- Yu na Kim will lead the way tomorrow. Japan and China one ice China ahead of two Japanese skaters behind Akiko??:disapp:

 

[gimble]

Asada's score seems a bit too low. I can see that they want to keep the top scores close and make tomorrow's competition more exciting but some scores are a bit strange. Some overmarking and some undermarking.

For the most part, there were very few mistakes. Kudos to the ladies.

 

[Panini]

Instead of Julia, they chose Adelina.

Individual OGM to make up for not getting team gold :disapp:

 

[sefan]

Oh no! That is just so harsh and heartbreaking

 

[sky_fly20]

What are the judges smoking? How can Adelina have higher GOE and PCS than Yuna I just can't

while I detest her PCS
Sotnikova' 3T-3T is huge, her first triple is like a quad toe !

 

[Vicky458]

What a joke?? Adelina got higher GOE and PCS than Yuna. Wow.. can't believe. No more figure skating in Olympics please.

What a bunch of bull! There is no way a Adlina should be any where near yuan or Carolina in PCS.

 

[colourmeblue]

I am disappointed with the final results that this judging is foreshadowing. :disapp:

 

[Ophelia]

Well...everyone go change their predictions for medalling right about...now.

 

[imisscohen]

3 US Women in the Top 7, wasn't expecting that!

That was exciting to see. The scoring for today was ridiculous, but the placements were mostly correct. But I'd move Adelina to 3rd and Ashley to 5th. Otherwise no real gripes.

 

[daphna]

The medals are decided - Carolina, adelina and Kim in any order. they are basicaly tied.

 

[Gigi13]

This competition is too intense I can't deal with this
