2018 Worlds Ladies FS

[Colonel Green]

Wow, that's an extremely light FS by Kostner in terms of tech content. There's no way she can compete with Zagitova even if she gets 80 PCS unless Zagitova makes serious mistakes...

Aiming for a clean sendoff, perhaps.

 

[frida80]

Has Mirai given any indication of whether she plans on retiring after worlds? I'd hate for her to retire on 4 underrotations...

She'd said she'd continue. But after that vblog, I'm not sure anymore.

I want to Carolina take gold medal so badly. If she skates clean she will show everyone that figure skating is not all about backloading, monster jumps and we can enjoy her flawless artisty. God please listen my pray

 

[saphire]

Wakaba got better score than Cup of China!

 

[Shayuki]

Did she take out the Lutz and the 3-3 or something?

She has a Lutz but she has no true 3-3. And she repeats the Salchow.

 

[evasorange]

For the sheer fairy tale aspect of it I kinda want Carolina to win.

Honestly same. How amazing it would it be for the 30 year old veteran to beat the teen wonder who was a baby when Caro was in her first Olympics?! It’s gonna take a miracle at this point though

 

[wusswuss]

Fair opinion. Still, her PCS went down from Russian GP for that, also... I guess next season she'll be at 68 PCS.

i agree that she's been underscored in PCS, she's such a fast powerful and beautiful skater

 

[Warwick360]

Higuchi to Camp Orser ASAP. SO MUCH POTENTIAL.

Orser camp does not automatically mean she's going to do well. I mean, look at Nam. Personally I want Eun Soo to go there. I think there's enough Japanese experts in skating.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Ugh, Kostner stuck with the cocktail dress

Hoping for the cactus catsuit?

 

[nolangoh]

Most other skaters have their PCS going up over the season, especially the Olympic season. Wakaba? Her PCS has gone down from the first GP to the second GP and down even further to worlds, even though this was her best skate.

Not only her, Zijun Li last season suffered the same situation it was even more insulting. Marin this season too, she used to get the same PCS as Alina last season but now it's just...

 

[ericka141]

These Russian commentators never shut up....

 

[nocturnalis]

Kaetlyn’s OG success was enough for me. I won’t be that upset if she chokes.

 

[ancientpeas]

It's really hard for that to happen, though.....

Never say never.. ask Sean Connery.

 

[vitamintea]

I've watched Alina's SP way more than I've seen Osmond's FS, and I was waiting for the music to change into Moonlight.

 

[Alchamei]

Wait for Kaetlyn's second half...

 

[HollyRose]

All I want now is Carolina and Satoko on the podium, please I love my Tiny Queen :sad21: And it would really be lovely if Carolina could win in front of her home crowd :luv17:

 

[wusswuss]

I can hear Kaetlyn's blades, Patrick chan style

 

[Ophelia]

Now you are up to something, Borser say he is getting two new skater that he needs to train from the basics...

Yep, and he needs a ladies star since Daleman and Elizavet aren't really star material.

Higuchi is one of those skaters with so much potential, but her future really depends on what coaching environment she's in.

 

[Shayuki]

Yikes, Osmond's not feeling it today it seems. Pretty wobbly.

 

[Alchamei]

She did the triple Loop!
