The men's event should be the focus of how lousy IJS is, the expectations of transitions from crazy setups, etc. The ladies, a few actually did this IJS stuff well- Sotnikova's program was an IJS masterpiece-ugly, uninspiring-yet she ticked off all the boxes very well. She did it better than Yuna can at age 17 and not injured. What is the upset about? Adelina is a great IJS product. And since when doesn't the home team get more support? Russia had it down. Total silence for any non Russian, and likely intimidation to judges and tech specialists. This result should surprise no one and is not the worst I've seen.
