Ladies SP

Becky Bereswill (Carousel)

Very expressive
3F weird takeoff, fall, bad UR
FSSp3
3Lz very tilted, saved it, 2-foot, +2T
Great posture
SpSq4, gorgeous unsupported spiral
CCoSp4
2A beautiful
LSp3
Definitely not her best, she is very disappointed.
 
Man, the way things are going now, Alyssa could be the leader heading into the Free. :eek:
 
probably not, with this bunch of judges. You just don't know what they are thinking or more likely, what they have already thought it through before the competition even starts.
wow - so if Mirai had rotated the 2a and landed it more or less clean, that would have been another 4 points? She would have tied Caroline, roughly?
 
I don't know why it would be so bad if Alissa went to Worlds. Other than Rachael, who else would go? Ashley hasn't been all that consistent either, and Caroline and Mirai both faltered in the GP.

Seriously. Rachael and Alissa would be my bet too based on this entire season.

I agree. Even when Alissa fell twice at CoR and recieved a bunch of downgrades, she still scored in the high 90's and it didn't seem to affect her PCS.

I have no problem with Alissa. But I don't like the the way the judges are doing. It seemed they clearly made up their minds somehow, shouldn't they judge on the performance only not on the previous GP events?

I totally agree with you and the rest. Alissa has actually had an incredibly consistent season--her strategy to start competing early and often seems to have paid off.
 
Alissa was really on tonight. I don't think Ashley or Rachael are better than Alissa, even when they are on.
 
Laney Diggs (Piano Concerto No. 1 in E Minor)

3Lz 3-turns +2T no sped whatsoever
CCoSp4, great broken leg
SpSq4, nice edging
3F looked UR
Fan spiral to 2A
LSp3 nice haircutter
SlSt placed well to music
FSSp4
Slow program overall, but nice spins.

I honestly don't get what you mean about the judges. From the pbps, it sounds like the judges have been pretty fair. Caroline has dodgy technique and wasn't flawless. Neither was Mirai. It seems as if the only skater who had a really great short was Alissa. Am I missing something? I don't have IN, but for those who do and are watching, do the scores and placements seem fair?

I've been too busy with PBP to really look at PCS (which, frankly, you can't judge that well from the TV or IN) but Caroline and Mirai both made very major mistakes which added up to a lot of points. Even beyond the obvious, Caroline lost a lot of points on her layback and Mirai lost a ton on that 2A.
