If they have properly called Osmond's Lutz, Mai might have squeezed on that 3rd place. And Wakaba might still have a chance for the GPF.
Osmond killed 2 Japanese skaters tonight. urghh
She should score about 210 to beat Wakaba total score.
she actually can beat her i believe in the zagi powerI'm picturing Evgenia watching Alina's FS, turning off the TV, and go train a 3Lo-3T-3T-3T-3T-3T-3Lo combinaison. Fourteen times in a row.
If Polina gets second and other skater than Ashly wins, Polina will battle with Wakaba for the last spot. Comaring their scores Polina will need massive scores in Skam to beat Wakaba
I disagree about easily. After Alina skated clean, Kaetlyn would need to also skate clean-ish - she needed +8 points above what she got.
She popped a jump and fell. Maybe it wasnt a bombed skate but it wasnt very good. I'm just bothered to see people complain about Alina's (desrved imo) PCS when she skated perfectly but nothing about Kaetlyn who didnt. I disagree about her being the best in terms of SS but that is subjective.
I see people complaining about Alina's PCS but what about Kaetlyn's? She got 70(!) on a bombed skate and she doesnt interpret the music very well. Personally, I dont see how she scored over Mai in the FS but that is to be expected of course.
Can't wait to watch the CBC version of Alina's FS :dev3:

But then with massive scores, Polina would be first, so i suppose second means no GPF for Polina.
Mathematically Mai still would have been in 4th. Osmond's lutz has been called clean (certainly not "e") for a while now. But no matter what I guess certain folks will keep adamant.
Also I love the people who are suddenly all upset about Osmond not getting scored high enough and (rightfully) only placing 3rd, because it's inconvenient for Wakaba... whereas every other time they would be salty as heck and automatically say she is overscored.
so many complaints... i think the judges got this one completely right.... with the way things have been judged for a while...
Mai : many complain about PCS. FWIW : i have seen her live and was so excited because she made a huge impact on me last year. It is unfortunate to say that she doesn't project her music. She is very focused and looking down for most of the skate. Lil Bet was like that too but she is now reaching out better. Both are quite small and have beautiful refined skating that shows well on the screen but those details are hard to see live and they need bigger movement and more impact in their skating to grow their PCS.
Did you see? In K&C Daniil passed a toy to Alina. She was playing with it and doing so covering her sponsor on the jacket. So Eteri took it away from her to show the sponsor with her classic expression. Priceless.
Depends. If Ashley is first, for example, no
Poor Wakaba out of the finals now based on these results for France :sad21:
