2021 Rostelecom Cup: Women's Short Program

[chasingneverland]

Liza isn't my cup of tea but omg I admire her tenacity, etc. Her 3A!! And her spins, performance, etc has improved!

 

[yelyoh]

I can't believe I actually like a Tuk program but I like this one. And the jumps!!!! Trusova better bring those quads.

 

[brigit66]

Eh, it is a WR TES and her choreo, interpretation, and performance (as well as ice coverage, spins, etc) are stunning. It's high but looking at Maiia's PCS with that skate..(although I think Mariah was too low)

What you mean by choreo is stunning..Every russians coming up is stunning. med was stuning, Zag was stunning, Anna wa stunning.
She is slow, her choreo is mediocre and lots of poising, her crossovers are even worse. Spins are very good.Thats all. Combo is plain bad and "flip" too

 

[lariko]

Oh, forgot to add, Schizas!!!

 

[Tomadeur]

I think until now she did everything she can to get the third sport for olympics. If she skates like that at nationals she should be the choice behind Valieva and Shcherbakova.

On the other hand, Elizaveta skating so well on the GP is just gonna make it harder on everyone when she gets left off the team anyway.

 

[Jontor]

Except for the top two, the rest are all surprises. I can't believe Bell is 3rd and Schizas 4th!

Will be an exciting free program tomorrow!

 

[rollerblade]

Top 2 took social distancing too seriously from the rest of the women.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Well, I'm satisfied with the standings though I agree judges were a bit generous to Maiia K (clearly they're giving her room to climb back onto the podium tomorrow). Gonna catch up on Pairs and Men and see you tomorrow!

 

[alexocfp]

Broke 80. Liza is fine wine.
Getting better with age.

 

[yelyoh]

And having said that I think Tuk should not be getting those PCS - too high But whatever, it's FSing.

 

[Totentanz]

Mariah Bell in third place with only 3+2 combo explains the struggle we all have been through this SP

 

[elektra blue]

Except for the top two, the rest are all surprises. I can't believe Bell is 3rd and Schizas 4th!

Will be an exciting free program tomorrow!

as unpredictable as men...well you know girls can do it better

 

[YuBluByMe]

A so-so event for me overall. Only Tuktamysheva stood out to me. I think this is the best SP she’s had and her 3A is as solid as ever. The men were probably better, but they certainly weren’t great either.

 

[brigit66]

we do, otherwise it would get boring let them do their thing nothing is going to change anyway

Yea, I agree nothing is gonna change. another russian will come up with inflated score in their FIRST SENIOR competitions like she was genius, which is pathetic. If you really accept that almost junior skater gets 38 in PCS and it is normal I feel sorry for you. SHe is chosen. IT is offending for other skaters, not you and me. It is plain disgusting

You are pretty right that Evgenia, Alina and Anna all were/are special skaters. Otherwise they wouldn't have been this succesful.

Them being great doesn't mean you have to like them. But with the statement Kamila is slow on the ice you disqualify yourself in any objective discussion imho.

No, they werent but it is forbidden to talk about it
Yes, she is slow , I saw her live

Hmm, I think that's still Sasha if she's healthy. Even a watered down Sasha can beat Liza when both are clean. And Sasha can score 77-78 with just a 2A in the SP.

 

[jenaj]

I think Liza's 3A is just as good as Kamila's and I think her 3Lz is better. Kamila had a very shallow edge on her lutz, from the replay. I also enjoyed Liza's program more.
