2016 World Championships Ladies SP

[OS]

How come everyone in the final flight has higher PCS than Mao... this is madness!!

 

[Alchamei]

69+? Should have crossed 70!

 

[MaiKatze]

Rika, great. What a competition!

 

[snowflake]

Rika 69.89 in fourth place ... and she is happy

GO Satoko!

 

[smarts1]

It's crazy to think that a 65 these days barely puts you in the top 10....

 

[viennaskater]

Ugh what cr@p scoring!

 

[nolangoh]

Yes RIka's smiling finally!

ANd Satoko's coach being enthusiastic as usual

 

[Lota]

Finally the judges are going with Rika, not against her :clapper:

 

[Imagine]

Finally, the bathroom break has arrived.

 

[Krunchii]

How come everyone in the final flight has higher PCS than Mao... this is madness!!

I predicted this after Mao finished her SP, shame because I thought despite the mistakes she really sold the program

 

[Watermelondrea]

Now it's time for super super super tiny jumps with super super super high scores!!

 

[StitchMonkey]

She wasn't even accused of taking it, ever, so it's beyond disgusting that anyone would insinuate that she was.

What is disgusting about insinuating she is playing by the rules?

 

[gravy]

Sa-taco Maya-hara.

 

[berry8]

Go Satoko!!!!

 

[TatiMax]

Good Hongo
Now home Gracie

 

[jkun]

Will judges give a perfect Satoko the nod ahead of Ashley and Evgenia?

(I hope not, but if they put her right between them I could live with that. We'll see how that flip edge is for her today.)

Please no. She doesn't deserve to be in the 70s in my book. The GOEs she is getting lately is quite ridiculous.

 

[Franklin99]

PRE-UR issues aside, Satoko is a beautiful skater and performer to watch.

 

[Mikansei]

Looking forward to more choreography from Akiko in the coming seasons! Great skate by Rika

 

[TatiMax]

No now Satoko not Gracie

 

[SarahSynchro]

Satokos spins seem slow today...
