2014 Worlds - Ladies Short Program

[CaroLiza_fan]

So disappointed for Glebova. I had her in my Top 15 in the Predictions Game. :disapp:

But, on the plus side, it means Anne-Line AND Eliška have now qualified!!!

Looks like forgetting to wish them good luck didn't do much harm, then!

Russia needs that 3rd spot next year! Too many amazing girls.

Definitely. And with Julia, I would say they have a good shot of earning that third slot.

Too many good Russian girls and that's not a good thing. Donate some

And as for donating some of them to other countries, I would gladly take one or two off their hands... (*cough* Tuktamysheva ...and maybe Korobeynikova too! )

I'm very nervous right now. Fingers crossed for Mao.

 

[Mista Ekko]

Performing 2 quads and trixel.

Well, it could happen (The record, not your jump layout suggestion)

Her BV is higher than what Kim had when she made the WR,

And Kim only got around mid 8's for PCS, So ...

 

[whatif]

No need to worry for Mao, she will get the job done. Expect 72+.

Poor Carolina going right after three Japanese in a raw.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

I'm very nervous right now. Fingers crossed for Mao.

I'm as nervous for Mao as I am Yulia. This isn't healthy. I'm afraid I may have stayed up all night to end up being unable to watch

 

[OS]

Ohh this 5th group might as well be the final flight! Geez!!! Hope Zijun and Gracie can benefit from some score inflation effect. This may very happen you know.

Good luck all!!

Mao got 72+ twice this year in the GP (or was it all 3 times ?) For SP's with bad triple axles,

If she goes clean somehow, expect about 4-5 points more, the difference for the full axle + in GOE

And that wont be an inflation

Drink some vodka my friend. It'll relax you damn well

lol ditto i'm gonna goddamn hurl

I woke up to watch the pairs, then went to sleep for 3 hours and now I'm ready for the competition again

Who cares 4 or 5. She will do well enough to be in the hunt for Gold. Not everything is about inflation. You know, old man.

 

[MaiKatze]

I don't think I can watch. I'm also getting nervous for Mao.

 

[Meoima]

Please do you best, Mao, or else lots of your fans will die of heart attack. I will have to collect the corpses here.

 

[papa]

What places Anna and Julia would have to finish to get that 3rd slot?

 

[Mista Ekko]

Don't worry, If you were able to watch Lips crash and Asada fall apart in the Olympics SP,
You can sit through any performance of theirs

 

[whatif]

What places Anna and Julia would have to finish to get that 3rd slot?

Not below 13 total.

 

[TMC]

It's sooooo much better to watch when you're not emotionally invested... I was so nervous during the olys my husband had to pre-watch all my fave skaters live and tell me what happened before I could bring myself to watch

 

[hohoho]

I don't care much for ladies esp under COP cookie cutter programs but WOW is Kaetlyn my favourite!!!! She has the X-factor!!!! Add her to my list of characters the ISU shoul exploit the hell out of in order to bring new fans to the sport (Hanyu, Yulia, Anna, Jason, Kaetlyn....)

Osmond woke up the audience and the judges. Great job increasing the jump TES. Too bad about the spin. Nice energy. Loved it

...And watch their PCS drop like rocks

Well, now that Jenna's retiring, Team GB needs a new representative in Ladies skating. And no disrespect to her, but I can't see Karly Robertson even getting near an out-of-form Liza or Polina K.

And, let's face it, Russia doesn't seem to want these two any more. But I do...
