I'm really hoping this was a one-off bad skate. Her JGP skates were brilliant - I was rooting for her to challenge Kamila and Alysa! She's very polished for a junior ... I truly hope she can bounce back by JGPF.

Definitely my favorite junior! I hope this will not become a pattern, but anyone can have a bad skate.

For Anna, she can switch it to 3Lz-3T which may help her score higher in the SP, but she needs to practice 3Lz-3Lo as much as she can. The big advantage of her being able to do all 3 types of 3-3 is that she replaces a -2T with another triple. These BV differences will matter a lot when she competes with the rest of the big scoring ladies later in the season. Their scoring potential is very close so every point matters. Hopefully she can get the combo rotated.
Along with being able to do a quad or 3A, the ability to do all triple combos (-3Lo, -Eu-3S) is also important in maximizing the BV.

You don't understand Anna's strategic goals.
What 3Lz+3t are you talking about? Let it be done by skaters who want nothing in the future.
Anna has already shown 4Lz+3Lo and 4F. She wants to fight Sasha, Alena and Alina. Not skating like a Princess with 3+2.
Some skaters are happy when they jump something once. It immediately appears on the Internet. In the Crystal a different strategy.
Or do you really believe the official version that Alena and Kamila learned their difficult jumps in a week?
You will still have many surprises from Moscow. And of course the girls will tell you how it all turned out easily and quickly. Right After it is inserted into their programs.
P/S Of course, sometimes they have to throw firewood on the fire to keep you interested. The main thing that everyone was not bored.
I don't remember 4Lz3Lo from Anna. Sasha did in only once on camera.
This combo is useless under the current COP.
You'd prefer to backlog -3Lo combo but backlogging 4Lz? Not sure any male skater may do it.

Any male skater.... What can they show if compared to Sasha or Anna? I'm not sure even Chen can perform Sasha"FS.
I just looked at the planned content from the skaters and Liza has no 3-3 combo in her FS. She jumps 3A-2A+Seq and 2A-3T-2T and 3Lz-2T as her combos. That is not a clever layout isn't it? She leaves a lot of points.

At least she is back to 3F-3T in her SP

I miss the dance videos from Eteri's group, they used to be posted quite regularly but I haven't seen a new one in a while - does anyone know if there are any?
This combo was one of my faves, I'm not sure if it was posted here? It's quite an oldie, though!

Alright SP just ended - Anna breaks her SP curse, being the only one to clear 70 in a field of splatfests. They still don't seem happy with her score, but a big improvement from Lombardia and Skate America!
Liza - adding the transitions ruined her perfectly solid 3A. Doubled her toe too, ending with a 3F+2T. PCS low as usual. Rough skate, but her main competitors were not greta either, so her 3A's in the FS will give her a good advantage.
Sofia - consistent still, but jumps seem barely squeezed out. UR's seem to plague her now, and PCS hitting an all-time low. Sad for Sofia...

Liza has a very good chance at making GPF with just a silver. Considering You fell and Satoko had all sorts of issues, silver is very much within Liza's reach. Not sure her GPF is lost already

she will lose the tie breaker against Zagitova, the only chance for that happen is Zagitova or Kihira will be out of podium in NHK

To be honest nobody had gold options against Shcherbakova. What Tuktamysheva just said goodbye is the season. In the GPF they will be Miyahara or You next to Kihira vs the 4A.

If Liza goes clean she can even win this. With Anna getting ! on Lutz I don't see her ending with a big score. So it will come to who is more consistent. I bet Anna, but I wouldn't say it's obvious.
Generally SP event was forgettable.
Sasha, Alyona, Anna, Rika, Alina = 5
There's ONE more spot, with You, Satoko, Liza, Mariah in contention. Liza with a silver will most definitely have a good shot at making GPF. Let's not spell doom and gloom just yet, especially with the wrong facts.
What a nervous SP that was!
Anna - finally no UR on the 3Lo but she got a ! call on the 3lz instead. StepSeq level 3 this time. I love this SP by Anna, I don't understand why the judges don't share my love...
Liza - oh my. Liza had a great chance here when You had such a disastrous skate, and then Liza fell on her 3A as well!! And what happened with the combo? She didn't even seem to go for the 3T. It's not over yet. She needs a clean free skate and I think it looks like Miyahara is her main competition now. Liza desperately needs to finish 2nd.
Sofia - solid skate. But her jumps are so tiny. Got UR on the 3T and the other jumps were all borderline. She has a good chance to better her SB though.
What's up with the StepSequences this season? Only Glenn and Honda received level 4.

76 SP was within her reach within the SP and let it slip away,
i Guess season is over, the 1 season breakout curse for Tuk isnt ending anytime soon.

Considering both Zagitova and Kihira have both been known to have bad skates, I wouldn’t count Liza out just yet.
