Sasha is such a machine
I wonder if she personally makes a point to do more weight training and muscle building than the other girls or if that's her natural build. But those muscles definitely show in her jumps and why her quads are huge and powerful compared to someone like Anna who's technique is based on rotating as fast&tight as humanly possible

Sasha's muscles are more obvious than with other girls, but some pictures show that most of them, despite their seemingly fragile look, have some decent muscle mass.

Wow they are really into it as much as Russia is.
A bit favorable towards Rika and Anna's spins are definitly superior to the other two's but it's all good, very cute that they hype up the sport like this.

Was watching Tiffany's live video and her and Guerreiro's stories. Plenty of information on what's going on

I'm thrilled about these Worlds.

Well this one's all over the place. Like Trusova having 9 for spins, uh...

Or like Shcherbakova with 9 for skating skills...

That one's pretty accurate though

You're right, this is more accurate -->

Oh no

 

[mrrice]

Oh no

This is really off topic but what does FSR stand for. Figure Skating Russia? I saw it in the prediction thread

Figure Skating Federation of Russia. Russia is banned from all Worlds Competitions, so it’s like an “Olympic Athletes from Russia” situation

To be clear that’s not even mentioned on the photo:

the criteria TV channel considered are jump, spin, expression (artistry), stability (consistency), experience (appearances on international competitions).

There are 6 criterias on the photo, but you only mentioned 5 except ... of course skating

That’s what the caption says.
If you could bring a better translation, that would be appreciated.

 

[Tonight's the Night]

That's a handy chart - does it update automatically?

Guess we'll find out on January 1st.

By the way there are other such charts/groupings on the site, like Olympic eligibility, coaches, nicknames, etc. (Originally posted by Doug Dorsey.)

But the strangest stat on that is experience, if we're talking international competitions shouldn't it quite clearly be Rika > Trusova > Anya?

Oh well, at least Anna's got the highest scores as little sense as they might make.

I'm confused. There's clearly one criteria at the bottom of the hexagon that is translated to as "skating" in the caption?

Edit: You might be looking at the second photo where it's cropped. Only the first one shows the "skating" criteria.
