Bummer for Alina, hope she can regroup.

Evgeni Viktorovich to Nika, 'You overrated a quad. Seems like you'll land a quint soon.'

I mean - if anyone could, it would probably be Nika with the sheer height she gets in her jumps (oftentimes to her own detriment).

Alina - wonderful first 4S attempt in competition (even if I don't think it was fully around) and what a shame about the second half of the program. She should not be too upset with herself, she is a great performer and a joy to watch.

And omg, great skate from Dikidzhi and Popov, and I am trying not to get invested, but I am invested. So happy for both!

Awww love Nadezhda's glasses! How cute!

Go Liza!

Although is this the program with the creepy music? Hope not, because it was super creepy!

 

[lariko]

Omg, for a second I hoped that Popov would win silver, but if not, I am hoping he did enough here to stay on National team.

"Bravo!" man returns with avengence!

Sad to see a +REP but nicely done.

Is a +REP the same as a bombo?

Eeee nervous for Sofia T now! Oh I hope she can podium that would be so epic!

Nah it means they did a jump that they've already done two of before. In Liza's case it was more than 2 lutzes.

I always wonder how that can happen. I still remember when Dima forgot to jump an axel in the FP.

Oh wait I forgot...you can do two of the same jump but one has to be in combo...or sequence or something. So Liza stepped out of the second Lutz so got the +REP.

Go Inga! She's a great spinner!

 

[Jasira]

Sadly I have to leave know and miss the rest of the competition. Will see you at one of the next competitions

Wow Veronika M killed that! Great program!

Nika Z clings to 1st, but here comes Sofia A!

 

[lariko]

Omg, Alina Gorbacheva, 4S! And then falls… I am legit crying. Gosh, I wish her program held till the end. I really hope it will still put her ahead. Argh. She is awesome.

 

[anonymoose_au]

That first 3A got HUGE positive GOE?!

Yeah no.

 

[lariko]

Ponteleenko is another one of my ‘remember, don’t get attached’, but I can’t help it. That girl! So tiny, so much spirit. And Dikidzhi’s team-mate

 

[anonymoose_au]

Hmm my stream must be behind, because Sofia A's score showed up on the results page a minute ago.

Well I guess we have a winner. I'm still hoping Sofia T can make that podium!

 

[anonymoose_au]

Wow Alisa has quads too!

Super nervous for Sofia T now...should she try a quad and her 3A?! Too risky? Or should she YOLO?
