2014 Olympics Ladies Short Program

[jkun]

I mean, it wasn't a her best 3Lz-3T. I will still be upset if Julia manages to get 1.40 again though. In fact, if there's another flutz and its not called...

They had to leave the score low enough for Gracie and Julia to beat.

Haha they might just do that. But that will be a judging fraud.

Oops. Bye bye long program, maybe.

Aww!!

I do not think she was really underscored. I mean at Vancouver she collected 4ish points from her spiral sequence. There is no spiral sequence anymore. That said, if Yulia scores 74 for her short despite her jumps I will be quite upset indeed.

Was this girl in the pink dress the first full fall?

 

[billie]

Referring to her (Yuna)interview, she felt something wrong with her legs during warm-up. So she was nervous and had no confidence on jump starting the program.

 

[jkun]

gracie is not beating that.

 

[Panini]

One clean performance, two more to go. Team Yuna/Mao/Carolina! Hoping Julia/Gracie/Zijun have good skates too but the older skaters are my sentimental favorites.

3Lo - very round landing, forward, hung on (good she didn't do +2T)
LSp
2A - stepout, hand down
FSSp
CCoSp
StSq

Disaster skate with two big mistakes - might not even make the FS

Yes.

 

[hurrah]

Hey, I just looked at Yuna's 3-3 in slow-mo (am watching it on digital tv here) and the second jump looked, really, really borderline. I think the caller is generous!!

Exactly. That and the lower GOE scaling mean she has to do much more work to break 75. Her components went up quite a bit since Vancouver as well.

 

[Ambivalent]

At least the 75 score is 5 full points higher than her 2013 Worlds SP
