about these scores.
Navka and Kostomarov scored 202.32 at europeans last year and 200.64 at the olympics.

Looks like they are really being set up to win a world medal this year with marks like those.

Yes the marks are just RIDICULOUS!!! Dear russians aren't you ashamed a little bit?

It happens in every Nationals around the world, so why criticise?

I expect to see similar marks for D/L at Canadian Nationals--maybe even higher.

Maybe not for B/A at US Nationals though, unless they have a completely new FD. With the current one, a FD score in the 95-97 range would be stretching it.

Nationals scores are ALWAYS bloated and exaggerated, not worth paying attention to. Each skating federation wants to make their skaters seem better than they actually are. This score doesn't change the fact that D/S are almost a shoe-in for the bronze at Worlds. Their FD has beaten B/A's consistently this year, and as long as they don't bobble footwork again, they'll be ahead of the Americans and the French.
