2017 GP Rostelecom Cup Ladies SP

Also, that PCS is so inflated it's not even funny!

 

[sunnystars]

Her technique may be her weakness but Elena never fails to show her heart and fire on the ice.

Elena's TES is lower than Valeria's...

 

[ruffledgrouse]

The screechy violins, her makeup, and posture are the stuff of my nightmares. Sorry Elena...

But the dress was nice?

 

[solani]

How did Kostner get 37.93 in TES? :disapp:

Look at the protocols later, last time she had only level 4 elements in her SP and good GOE. Quality.

 

[nolangoh]

I like Elena, she is a charming charismatic girl. But higher PCS than Wakaba...?

 

[MaiKatze]

Oh no...is that Carmen??? Rhumba Carmen?

 

[SarahSynchro]

Elena really got the short end of the stick when it comes to birth dates in relation to Olympic years... not that anything can be done about that, because it is what it is...

But the dress was nice?

She stole the fringe from the latin ice dance rhythms.

I really liked Wakaba, she was radiating happiness. Until the scores came up. But good job :thumbsup:

Lena's first 2 spins looked slow, and combo scratchy. A shame because I liked this program at WTT and the dress is much better. She also looked unhappy in KNC

No no no not Carmen this pitchy violin kills me

 

[GGFan]

I randomly love that I'm getting a lesson on which syllables to stress in Russian names. I've been butchering them all along . . .

 

[Anni234]

Is it my bad musicality or do the background beat and Carmen beat not match very well?

 

[sunnystars]

Ooof
Another Carmen

 

[NoNameFace]

Elena is for me just herself with this 'edgy', a little non-defined way of movement, a little too wild/uncontrolled, she would not be the same, sassy Elena with diva attitude, selling programs like ice to Eskimos, the dress is spectacular for me - but I'd change the hair, this dress begs for a little retro/jazzy hairstyle with headpiece, jewelry clip in hair or something

 

[SarahSynchro]

Oh no...is that Carmen??? Rhumba Carmen?

Of course it is, you expected not to hear Carmen during an Olympic season? Buckle up for the warhorse ride!

 

[icellist]

when did tursynbaeva become a pageant skater?

 

[pearly]

I love the bright red accent on Elizabet's dress.
Nice work overall, however too young for this music. But I hope she does well.

Very nice skate, wise choice to not do the Lz/F in her SP

SP: 32.71+31.21 = 63.92 (SB), 5/10

Ooh....your avatar

 

[ruffledgrouse]

It was a good call for Elisabet to use a violin remix of Carmen- the original score is too heavy for her to carry. That was my fear
