Worst SP of Marin's life.

Marin just completly ditched jumping pass, what

I'm curious. Does that count as an attempted jump entry if you don't even attempt it? Maybe she could have actually done the solo jump later.

Is is Cathy with her? :love:

But this is a bad sign. To bomb that badly at a no pressure event...

It counts as an invalid element.

I worry about her, her career looks miserable to me right now... she needs to get herself togerher or change coach if it doesn't work. I hope she will keep going as a figure skater and won't choose celebrity life or sort of double career.

I know but at what point? It's not like she even started doing a jump. She just skated through.

I think she still could add it somewhere? I remember when Yuna once did smth like that at GP France and commentator said that she may put it later. Not sure how it is with rules right now.

I hope Marin finds new motivation. This is too sad for words. She look like she wasn't even care.

Yes!

But this is a dangerous sign. To bomb that badly at a completely no pressure event...

She didn't look that bad to me health-wise, and she landed some OK triples in the warm-up. Perhaps she just couldn't decide whether to go for her old jump layout (3F-3T, 2A, 3L) or try a new one (3Lz, 2A, 3F-3T?)... She was warming up her loop just before her skate.

It's sad that she didn't take the opportunity to skate the hell out of her program, but maybe it's best that she got it out of her system here...

She couldn't.

"What is an attempt? In principle, a clear preparation for a take off for a jump, stepping to the entry edge or placing the toe pick into the ice and leaving the ice with or without a turn is considered an attempt of a jump, receives no value and blocks a box.
In some cases, which need to be decided by the TP, the preparation for the take off without leaving the ice might be also called an attempt, e.g. a loop jump take off when the skater falls before leaving the ice, or a skater steps onto the forward take off edge of an Axel and pulls back the free leg and arms, starts the forward movement to jump into the air with the free leg and arms passing through forward but at the last moment does not leave the ice, etc. " Quote from the Technical Handbook Single Skating

Lolz at the Cathy Reed comments. I feel sooooo stupid now. Passed her a few times tonight and looked at her thinking She looks the spitting image of Cathy Reed! But it cannot be her, so she has a twin out there.
Doh.
