2016 Trophée de France Ladies SP

[YuzusHydroblade]

While I like the concept of Medvedeva's SP, I don't like the childish hops she does at the beginning of the programme. We don't need hop scotch on ice to know she's an innocent girl out and about.

I am not sold on the hops either, they look silly IMO. But i ADORE her dress :luv17:

 

[andromache]

There are parts of Evgenia's SP I like, but it's too dependent upon her innate girlishness, big eyes, and immature figure to pull off something like this.

Mark Hanretty throwing Averbukh's choreography under the bus.

 

[Tyranid]

Medvedeva has 42 TES.

She'll beat Tuktamyshevas 44 at some point lol.

TAT is super impressed with the effortlessness of her skating and the difficulty of jump entries.

Evgenia's jumps looked solid this night.

 

[Trewyn]

I had seen and not minded Evgenia's copy-paste FS but the choreography with all the awkward hopes and juniorish poses really put me off in the SP. She has elegance, I'm sure she could pull off a more mature choreography. No competition for her here. She's going to the GPF as the top qualifier for sure.

Maybe she should take him to a hypnotist to convince him to take the flip out.

(In all seriousness, yes, she does.)

To be fair the flip was only the tip of the iceberg today.

 

[snowflake]

Evgenia is just so amazingly consistent and clean, tech 41.99 so far.

 

[Crossover]

I really can't appreciate her flawed and muscled jump technique.

So the Eurosport UK argues for WR.

EDIT: LOL, only hair from Mao's WR.

 

[4everchan]

ok.. i am confused... i thought they had options for the solo jump.... could be either a double or a triple... i guess i am wrong... when did they change that rule??? recently or years ago? hehe

It was a double but it's still invalid. The solo triple has to be a triple or zero credit.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Eteri's hair looks lighter from two weeks ago.

 

[qwertyskates]

Effortless perfection.....Evgenia!:agree:

 

[tulosai]

Etri looks better with her natural hair color, I'm sorry.

 

[randomfan]

?!?!?!?!?!

 

[Violet Bliss]

Go Gabby!

 

[Yatagarasu]

She missed the WR by what, 0.14?!

 

[nolangoh]

Thank God Mao's WR is still here

 

[EdgeCall]

Maybe she should take him to a hypnotist to convince him to take the flip out.

(In all seriousness, yes, she does.)

This is far beyond a flip. Gracie cracked in Boston just like Yulia cracked in Sochi. Isn't it tragic that Gracie and Yulia do not speak a common language? They would have so much to talk about to each other. Maybe it would help them.

 

[DexterK]

Eteri loves a large collared/slightly bulky coat and light denim. If anything is consistent in figure skating...

 

[sallycinnamon]

It is almost a world record..what the heck.

 

[SarahSynchro]

GO GABBY GO!!!
