Haven't watched anything yet but just by reading the comments and glancing at the scores, this was a very weak SP event for the ladies. Mistakes from nearly everyone...
Surprised to see Adelina in 1st place but it's not like it hasn't happened before. She can be pretty amazing when she's on...
Typical of Carolina to have one big mistake but it's early in the season and this is her very first competition. Did she even do any summer events?
Anna is very steady so I expected her to hit her elements. PCS come with the territory...she's a newbie up against veterans. If she pays her dues and continues to skate strongly her PCS will rise.
Plenty of URs for Kanako but that is her pattern. The past two seasons she starts off slowly with lots of URs but by nationals she's back on track. Kanako is really good at peaking so I'm not worried about the jumps. Haven't seen the program yet but the comments about it have me worried. I usually adore her SPs...
Disappointing Agnes...is disappointing.
What happened to Zijun?? She's more than 10 points behind 2nd place but if she has a strong FS she could pull up to 3rd or 4th.
I'll watch the videos when I have time. I'm pretty sure Carolina will still end up in 1st place by the time all is said and done. Adelina isn't known for holding it together in the FS but if she does she'll definitely end up on the podium. Anna is steady and if she nails her tricks I'm sure she'll stack enough points to stay on the podium. Both Kanako and Zijun are capable of 120+ FS scores so we'll have to see how they do.
