2017 World Ladies SP

Oooh, is he on the panel right now?

Nope

 

[andromache]

I really thought Karen's combo looked clean during the zoom-in of her feet in slow-mo.....guess I'm the only one?

I did read it.

And half a point is all it takes. Less than half a point is all it takes. What if in the FS that half a point Wakaba missed out on in order to keep her below Carolina ends up costing Japan three spots? Only half a point then? Point is, score properly so that the placements are right because sooner or later, there is going to be a mess.

This is very difficult in the current scoring system, I mentioned that as well. When humans score things like this can happen, they don't know the outcome, they score each element and the components. Should we go back to 6.0? Then I would look at the placements of each judge and I would also find fault with this outcome.

 

[Matilda]

I frankly think Karen deserves higher PCS. Happy for her at any rate.

 

[desertskates]

Good Morning from sunny Arizona! Trying to catch up to where we are. Must pop top on Red Bull. Must find Jackie Wong's twitter feed...

 

[satine]

Gracie wore it better.

Agreed & I don't care much for either version..

 

[Stolmov]

Bravo Katlyn

 

[Alchamei]

The best skate of Angelina this year! Jumps questionable but she's happy!

 

[SarahSynchro]

nope

Phew... but Friday is another day....

 

[Violet Bliss]

Oooh, is he on the panel right now?

Of course not.

But the screen showed 11.00 after the first combo. That kind of score usually means no underrotation score-wise.

but it can get reviewed down.. the ticker is not final... hence tes drops... in this case they didn't drop it

No surprise that Chen's underotation is overlooked by the judges. How come everyone else not from the US got punished harshly?

Kostner was not. Her spin was so slow that my clock's second hand moved faster.

 

[gravy]

ArE YOU TRYING TO JINX US

NGL, I was secretly hoping he would accidentally let go of the aspergillum and smack one of those guys in the face.

I see it as right at a quarter. So extremely borderline, I wouldn't argue with either call- like it literally looked right on the line to me.

 

[shyne]

The inconsistency in rotation calls at this competition is mind bothering.

 

[Princessroja]

Yay! A good skate from Angelina this season!

 

[draqq]

Kuchvalska:

A bit low on the 3Lz (probably <, actually definitely <), but fine on the 3T+3T (second one could be < too) and 2A. Fine spins apart from the final layback spin which got wobbly right at the beginning of the illusion entry.

She has actually has competent artistry, though she could work on projecting more and have stronger edges.

 

[Ilvskating]

OMG，Karen's combo is not called and got + GOEPoor Zijun

I think it was right at quarter. It depends on the angle of the camera too. The tech panel camera might not be the same angle as the one we're seeing on the stream. Let's consider that before we start lynching them.

 

[Sackie]

I was pretty sure they would make sure there were 2 USA ladies in the final group after the short! And it looks like that will be the case! Feeling sorry for Gabby now - she is going to get dumped!
