2016 Youth Olympic Games Ladies

[Shayuki]

I feel like I might be correct about her not being capable of getting bronze but in a different manner than expected, she could be getting silver instead. Interesting.

Hate this music, though.

What I find kind of weird about this competition is that it's probably going to end up with the results everyone expected, just not in the way people expected them to happen.

Never mind, Diana could play spoiler. That was pretty.

Diana... That was so beautiful to watch. :luv17:

She fistpumps. Good skate with some small mistakes. Enough for medal?

FS: 57.50+49.29 = 106.79 (PB), 165.60 (PB), 5/16

 

[silverfoxes]

Told you she could...

If she doesn't medal I'll be really upset.

edit - I'm upset.

 

[Shayuki]

Her PB's like 97?

Needs to improve upon it by like 10 points.

 

[Tolstoj]

BTW i don't know why Maria's PCS are so low in this competition, in this FS she deserved at least 120.

 

[Totentanz]

I think Diana will get the bronze here if not silver.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I just realised something. If Nikitina goes into 6th, my predictions will have the right 6 girls in the Top 6, but only with Yuna and Elisabet the wrong way around.

But, after that performance, Diana won't be as low as 6th.

Awww

 

[dna5019]

...What? :shocked:

 

[cathlen]

Bravo, Diana, that was beautiful! The competition ended on high note

 

[bartlebooth]

Only in 5th - but Team Latvia is on the rise!

 

[Hanmgse]

5th???

 

[Shayuki]

It's curious how this performance was considered worse than splatfests.

 

[Tyranid]

Brian Orser inflation pts. i guess?

I mean, I have huge respect for Orser as a coach but many times his skaters get the "benefit of the doubt".

 

[cathlen]

She lost more than 3 points in PCS to all 4 ladies. Wonder why that much.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I think Diana will get the bronze here if not silver.

Erm, she went 5th.

But, hey! I'd have guessed 4th, so you were not the only one putting her higher.

Congratulations to Polina for the clear best performance of the day, Maria for holding it together in the FS ad climbing up 6 places and Diana for performing two very nice programs in this competition!

 

[silverfoxes]

Well, 3-5 were very close and we have no good quality video of the SP, so no use complaining since it changes nothing. Diana can be proud of 2 great skates. She's getting better all the time & Latvia is going to have a very strong team in the near future...so watch out
