World Team Trophy - Day 3

[Nika09]

160 without 3a nor quads, only 7 jumping passes and a PCS disadvantage compared to men... (with factoring it to .8 vs mean at 1.0)

kevin reynolds scored 150... landed two quads??? yeah it's getting interesting

Kevin should start putting tanos on everything he can and miming if it wont help.

It's 5 AM for me already...but this ladies competition makes me regret nothing

She got 2.00 GOE for her lutz, ok. This score is honestly ridiculous. Mai's and Wakaba's PCS are too lol.

The problem is if the judges don't care about it, she doesn't care to correct her edge either.

All of us should stop to encourage bad programs like Ashley, Wakaba, Mai, Kaetlyn etc. Next season if they want to win they have to do something beautiful like a jump of the rope or a phone call

Beautiful kimonos! I love japanese victory ceremonies!

I don't know, she seems to have the personality where she would care. But it's hard to fix.

Sleep well (if you don't have to work or something:agree

3Lze is always where. It's like the emperor's clothes, everybody sees it, judges pretend it is not there.
Of course Mai and Wakaba have higher BV, they both go for two 3Lz.

But they only got 4 jumping passes in the second half, not 5.

How so, if I might ask? I thought Wakaba getting lower PCS than Ashley is what's ridiculous, for example.

I actually enjoy Wakaba's performances more too, the thing is Ashley is getting high scores in PCS for a while. Wakaba for me always performed this program well but suddenly she got boost like that. Mai didn't care for presentation/ interpretation at all, she was super careful to be clean. I enjoyed both of them but this is just funny.

Presentation time!

Never seen the World Team Trophy before! Do they get medals? Or their own personal little trophy?

Is there someone in the team boxes all ready sweeping? The Japanese are so efficient!

Wow, the male pair skater and dancer in Team Japan are massive compared to the rest of them!

OMG Shoma is indeed tiny, so cute!

When you give Mai 70 PCS, and I love Mai, I'm really looking forward to her growth, then what do you expect for Zhenya? That's the problem of inflation, it goes up and builds across the board.

point of my post, i found Mai's PCS high before seeing Evgenia's, i think both are higher than it should be, my main problem is with TES though

 

[Yatagarasu]

How so, if I might ask? I thought Wakaba getting lower PCS than Ashley is what's ridiculous, for example.

I think it's Mai that's the issue. She should have been below Wakaba. Then of course, Zhenya had to go up from her.

 

[MaiKatze]

Took a shower during Med, so I guess she won? Anyway, how sweet are Wakaba and Mai...they seem to get along well and honestly are happy for one another.

 

[Yatagarasu]

The friendship of Wakaba and Zhenya is just so wonderful, that hug :luv17:

 

[Mirunna]

But they only got 4 jumping passes in the second half, not 5.

True, but then look how Med only does combos with the toeloop, both Mai and Wakaba use the loop in their three jump combo. When you have all scores on papers, Mai and Wakaba have a higher BV. And with their execution today, I can't understand how they are so far behind Med in TES! It's frickin 6-7 points on TES only. It makes 0 sense

 

[Li'Kitsu]

Katya gets my personal gold medal for most amazing and fun team captain

 

[frida80]

Team USA are huggers! So cute!

 

[anonymoose_au]

Aww it's nice to see everyone congratulating everyone else! So nice to see!

The two Zhenyas get MVP awards!

Also...I wonder what Latin American and South America think of the USA getting to be just 'America' in Japanese.

Ashley's short program music FTW!

 

[frida80]

It looks like all the pair and dance men are much taller than the rest of the skaters.

 

[frida80]

Huh, I passed 2000 post I didn't realize it! Yay me!
