Yesssssss at Satoko delivering. So many ppl write her off bc of her jumps.
Mao, Mao, Mao. Sigh. Still hot and cold. I really thought she had ladies skating in the bag when she returned, but it doesn't look like that.
Hmm, I seem to recall plenty of indignation about Gracie's triple flip edge!
People were discussing it, but it was mostly in good fun, including the slo-mo video.
With Mao it's usually endless complaining and nitpicking about everything she does (or threads about how her flutz is the scourge of ladies' skating.)
It's the negativity that is off-putting, not the discussion in itself.
The Japanese commentator is keep saying Satoko's programme is flamenco. I heard it is Riverdance. I'm confused
Exactly. I don't know what's wrong with her :noshake: But anyway, figure skating needs Mao so much more than Mao needs figure skating. She won so many times and doesn't have anything to prove to anyone, so trying this insanely difficult layout is actually a great ultimate challenge. In the end she could prove many doubters wrong with a clean lutz (she did it in competition practices many times) and good 3f-3lo combinations. Her 3A is already much better.
lol you need to calm down, it's not as if they scored a 67 point SP with a fall (*ahem* Medvedeva)
The way the mechanics of a loop jump work forces there to be inherent prerotation, and this effect is absolutely magnified when you're attaching a loop as a backend jump to a combination. Mao's triple-triple was fine and landed absolutely backwards.
Wagner's PCS Ranges from low 8 to high 8
Miyahara's PCS ranges from low 6 to high 8. Got lower SS and Transitions even though she is better than Wagner
Asada's PCS ranges from low 7 to low 9. They gave her high 7 on transitions which i believe is just right. the first part of her program is pretty much empty.
