2016 Rostelecom Cup - Ladies SP

[whatif]

surprisingly well skated event. So many clean skates and very high scores across the board.

I really thought Elizabet would hit 70+. And from look of things, on the brighter side of things, it is clear that she does in fact have ability to hit 70+ at the current state, because I'm guessing she probably lost about 3 points with the negative GOE and the deduction on the Axel. Also, it was clear that the fall made her spins go slow, which may have contributed to lower GOE. At least just for that, I am really glad even with the fall.


PS: would have still been better without a fall.

Elizabet's dress made her look so young that I had to cringe at the line "I got my man who could ask for anything more" ICKY!!

 

[Hyena]

Elizabet's program is great! Those falls that come right after you think they've landed it are the worst.

I don't mind Elena's program, but I think I get why others dislike it. I would have had Yulia over Elena here, too.

Todd Sand's hair is like a Ken doll.

He has always looked like that. I always thought that he Jenni belonged in a Disney Castle. They looked like a Prince and Princess when they skated.

 

[Sugarpova]

Still no sign on Match showing the event on my tv set((( but I did manage to catch Lena's dress & The Moment

Idk

For some reason I think Elena looked so tall. Man, she really grew this year. Program is so-so for me, but I'm happy she skated clean. Of course I'm happy for my girl, Anna! And the judging was very fair in this event, short of the punishment of Kanako, although I must say, the program isn't that good either. Looking forward to tomorrow. I hope Anna can hang on, but I have a feeling she cannot allow any mistakes. She's still not Russia's darling and I doubt she'll ever be so it always feels more than just good when she wins something against the 'darlings'.

Not a fan of Elizabet cutesy outfit which makes her look even younger.

Russian Nationals is going to be a bloodbath. I would have probably had Julia above Elena but it is shaping up to be a clear Russian sweep. So who will make Worlds? Evgenia and Anna seem a good bet but Julia, Elizaveta or Elena... who will get the third spot??

Maria will surprise you in the next GP event

 

[Yatagarasu]

Unlike the men, I really enjoyed the ladies event can't wait for the FS.

 

[Tolstoj]

Hi Tolstoj,

Word here is that she prefers to use the diminutive Bet, like Вета ...

Thanks, didn't know it.

She prefers Bet or the correct diminutive is Bet?

 

[matcha]

Radio in front of Lip, like, idts judges!

Anna's programs are literally my favourite of all the ladies this season.

 

[Sugarpova]

I haven't interpreted it as making fun of Lena at all Imo it looked like they were talking about being shown on tv screens in the arena thus waving & taking the mask off
Where ppl saw mocking is unexplainable to me *scratches head*...

It would have been interesting if she would have beaten Julia with that fall. I think Anna and Elena were to far ahead, but realistically I think she should have beaten Julia, if clean. Honestly, I don't see much difference between her and Evgenia, and if Evgenia can get these scores, why not her?

Anna needs to be clean in FS, or else "Cup of Russia Darling" Elena will win.

Agree. That was sensational. Just like her last SP at Worlds.

 

[Crossover]

Zijun is so underscored on her PCS...I think she should've at least been ahead of Elizabet who had a fall. I would like to put her ahead of Radionova though.

Hopefully the marks will come with consistency

Radionova messes up her 2A (a 0 from one judge) and gets a personal best.

Li and Hicks go clean and get a couple points below their personal bests.

YASSS Rostelecom inflation!!!!!
