Urgh...
Looks like Australia won't be sending figure skaters to the Olympics for the first time since 1972.
Sucks to be down under at the moment!

scrambling an awful lot and still getting high PCS?

I believe that the rules allow for an additional lift that isn't scored as a Technical element but is considered part of the choreography, and that's how it's labelled. I think.

It doesn't sound more ludicrous to me than a skater who finishes 17th in TES and still gets the highest PCS!

Pretty much exactly the same routine they have performed for past two years. However I can not believe they chose that disastrous music for Olympic season. I smell EPIC FAIL.

Here is Alissa's Sp

She skated clean, but I just don't get the fire from here that I feel Zorro need. She looks beautiful, but I wish she would have brought a little more character like she did in her Don Quixote exhibition. Also her entrances to the luzt and the axel looked really out of control...like she was heading in on direction and then jumped in the other direction.

Well, that's the CoP. You can be awful in TES and good in PCS -- or vice versa.

Czisny won with two triple jumps, is that an ISU record?.
Can we imagine what will happen if she land all her jumps in one program? With a 17th place in TES she still got 1st in PCS, this really get me thinking that all skaters should focus more on spins, spirals, speed, and even take drama lesson, and get a pretty "look", that will land them in some decent placements
Thank you, feraina! freshly posted on youtube!
I thought it was a decent program...other than underrotation calls, it was pretty well skated...I dunno if i like this outfit better than last year's tho...but she's gorgeous either way

Just check out the uploader's channel - they have uploaded a few of the ODs from different skaters.

There's a third possibility: you can be good in both.

Thanks for posting the video, Feraina. That was actually a pretty good program overall. Just by looking at the protocols I thought it must have been a disaster. Alissa is a classy skater -- I can see why she gets such high program component scores even as she loses points for technical errors on jumps.
