Asian Open Figure Skating Trophy 2014

Very low scores for So-Youn and Hae-Jin, they probably received other technical deductions (< or e) added to the fall :think: Did Rika attempt the toeloop-toeloop or flip-toeloop?

Oh, man, << on their triples along with falling. That explains why Haejin's and Soyoun's scores are so low :ohwell: I hope they get it together for the free!

Sadly, it seems that promoting FS events is poor in every country (except maybe Japan and Korea). (I admit "cheap" means a lot to me - the last time there was a big event in my country, the cheapest tickets for the entire event cost more than my monthly salary - and that's without accomodation! :( It would have been literally cheaper for me to travel to an event held in another country, an a luxurious tourist location, than to attent an event held locally :bang: ).
I completely understand your point. My take is just that since most of competitions in Asia (apart from Japan and S. Korea) are free why they don't consider giving other countries a chance to host their competitions. Some others might provide us with better access (results or even streaming). Politics will end up killing the sport in this corner of the world too if it keeps going in this direction. :cry:
 
any videos from the event?? i want to see park so youn's program.. what david wilson's choreography looks like..

I hope for So Youn's sake that it's not too similar to Yuna Kim's past programs. IMO, both SY and HJ already have too much of Yuna Kim's vibe going on... I'd love to see them develop into their own persons. Also, am I the only one who's tired of Wilson's choreography???
 
Japanese ladies seem to be strong this year. Satoko and Kanako in seniors, Wakaba and Riona Kato in juniors, Yuna and Marin in novice division... Looks like Korean and Chinese skaters have a lot of catching up to do. Cross my fingers for Zijun Li to have her moments in the 2015 Worlds in Shanghai XD
 
Thank you for you kind words. This is why his coach and I chose this competition it has the benefit of being close to home but with fantastic skaters to compete against to gain experience and to know what he has to do to improve himself and be competitive.
Congratulation to you and your family. :clap:
 
Higuchi TES 58.77

Interesting that they both made two mistakes, but still Higuchi had a 7-points TES advantage... I guess it was because of BV and GOEs
 
OMG....So Youn's PCS. What happened? I just don't get it. 5's and 6's. :eek: This really surprises me because falling on a 3z is ok and even the << happens especially on a fall but...what happened to the rest of the program? :bang:

It just means that judges didn't like what they saw. I didn't watch the video yet, so have no idea what the issue was. But, hopefully she pulls thru in the long program.
 
It's great to see that most of the ladies vying for the top position these days attempt either 3lz-3t or 3f-3t combinations. But I do wish more skaters would try loop combinations (3lo-3lo, 3lz-3lo, 3ft-3lo, etc.) as well. Those have become so rare... I understand the risks of loop combos, but with bigger risks come bigger rewards. Don't loop combos give you more points than toe loop combos when successfully landed?
 
One question for those who read the ISU communications more carefully than I did :biggrin: Why is it written CCoSp3p4 instead of CCoSp4? I've already seen it a few times in the last protocols...

Yes, but they are the most difficult to rotate correctly ;) most skaters receive < and << for the loop combos, and that's why for example Adelina went from a 3Lz+3Lo to an easier 3Lz+3T when she began having her jumps downgraded, it was simply not worth it (even if she's not always able to rotate correctly the 3Lz+3T, at least it is less difficult and that's why she chose it, I guess)
