I feel so sad about Alina's meltdown. She was tense before the program and was touching her nose. I have cold this weekend - may be she as well? Anyway, her first combo - her visiting card with rippon lutz - she did not rippon it. That's for those who think that tanos and rippons are a piece of cake once a skater masters them - looks like not at all.
Rika's jumping skills are fantastic. Artistically, well, she has a lot of time ahead of her. But with such jumps she will be gold contender in any competition this season and a big irritant or, positively saying, stimulus for Eteri. Next step will be standard 3A and possibly quads in her team starting next season.
Russia does not need Tsurskaya and Gubanova both winning the last 2 events. Hope, they will be pushed against each other next week. It can be informative for the fed as well. I remember Gubanova's competing against Tsurskaya was interesting already 2 years ago.
Although we don't know details. Gubanova just scored 69,5 in SP in a local competition but then skipped FS. I wonder if she is OK.
Eunsoo Lim girl is a future star - the best I've seen from Korea recently.
