Man I've watched too much GP today I keep expecting English announcers and am like "WTH" when the Russian starts

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Davai Polina i believe you can make nats!

 

[anonymoose_au]

Star Wars she does look very Jedi in that costume

 

[AlexBreeze]

The combo is heavily under
And than solo double Axel

I hope I didn't curse her +SEQ.

Polina

 

[EdgeCall]

... and there's the fall.

Was she injured? In general she is great but something is wrong.

 

[yume]

Her take-offs are like Gubanova's and her landings like Radionova's.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Almost clean skate from Polina, 1 fall is honestly not bad for her but yeah some jumps were under, Im not sure she did enough to stay ahead of Ksenia G tho Please be enough for nats, not making any nats 2 seasons in a row would be so disheartening

 

[Jontor]

Not really what Polina wanted, but she got all the jumps done. This will not beat Gushchina which means Polina is in grave danger not to make Nats.

 

[AlexBreeze]

She lost 12 points in TES.

Some point during last season she has started to UR a lot

 

[EdgeCall]

Did Safonova skate at the start?

Yes.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

What was that pop Vika But at least she recovered nicely

It was not even enough for a pop. Weird attempt, I have never seen it before.

 

[Jontor]

Solid skate from Nesterova, but that popped Axel could be expensive. I suspect it was meant to be in combination?

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Maria i beg, lets make nationals!

She had 2A+Eu+3S planned.

 

[Jontor]

She had 2A+Eu+3S planned.

Yes I thought so, she was missing a triple.
