Underlined pairs want to qualify for the Olympics (four spots available), fat skaters are major players.

 

[sillylionlove]

I so picture the Olys podium with Gold - Plushenko (again), Silver - Lambiel (again) and the 3rd overrated skater with a bronze - Chan (because Buttle is retired).

I really hope not!!!

 

[gold12345]

Well I think Lambiel has officially joined Plushenko in the "mega star power= outrageously scored" club. No matter if half of their programs are lackluster (for Evgeni transitions for Stephane jumps) they will still get "we bow to your feet" PCS from the judges.

Lambiel has been in that club for a while. It was one of the reasons why I sort of dreaded his comeback. What other man could get away with not having a reliable 3A? I wonder how he will be received at a bigger competition than this one.

 

[enlight78]

Lambiel tech score was save by his high levels on footwork and spins; non- quad men shorts with 3A can score up to 47 (Kozuko)in the tech when max out. So Lambiel tech score of 38 is reasonable. I believe that his pcs may be inflated a couple of points or maybe he really performed that well. Welcom back.

Like Jeremy's short, this wonderful thing must be well executed at the Olys and enter in the history of figure skating. Kudos Stephane!

 

[Hsuhs]

I want to hear what Joubert has to say.

 

[SamuraiKike]

OK I just watched Lambiel's SP..

The program is OK. nothing out of this world but the spins and straight line step sequence were OMG! and the 2axel was great so I'm perfectly ok with the huge GOEs. I still think the PCS are too high, he was obviously still green and a bit nervous. I hope he really trains night and day on that 3axel.

[MagicFairy]

Miriam Ziegler is on 4th place after the sp!!!

 

[MissIzzy]

Wait a minute, when did they switch Candice Didier for Gwendoline Didier? Was it injury or was it politics? At least she's in position to qualify right now but it's all too close...

 

[HCOSurfer]

Alissa

 

[Buttercup]

Wait a minute, when did they switch Candice Didier for Gwendoline Didier? Was it injury or was it politics? At least she's in position to qualify right now but it's all too close...

Injury. Candice hurt her knee earlier this month, which is why she wasn't at the French Masters. I guess she's not yet recovered; also, she just split with her coach. Gwendolyn did well in the SP, good for her.

I am very happy to see Julia Sebastyen up there - aged 28 and on track for her 4th Olympics with no mid-career break. How cool is that?

 

[demarinis5]

Congrats Alissa, Kiira and Julia.

ETA: Forgot to congratulate Stephane.

 

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Omigosh! Go Alissa! 60.38 points!



Do scores from Nebelhorn Trophy count as personal bests? Like Worlds, Europeans, NHK Trophy...

 

[evangeline]

What other man could get away with not having a reliable 3A?

Patrick Chan

Stephane has his quad, though.

 

[NatachaHatawa]

Thanks for all the updates everyone! It's nice to know that Stephane is in quite good shape considering his break, injuries etc...

 

[seniorita]

So many german channels on tv, none can broadcast the Lp of men:scowl:

 

[enlight78]

I think this might be bad news for alissa. She is peaking so early that by time nationals is here what will she have.

 

[snowflake]

I want to hear what Joubert has to say.

lol, me too. It's fun to read when the guys comment each others skating. May I hope for a little verbal war preceding the olympics
