Wasn't a score in the 120s a pretty big deal in those (far away bygone) days? The scores have gone up considerably in the last years.
Yes is was. A score in the 120s would get you a win. Not to mention you didn’t need a triple triple. Ashley got silver in the GPF in 2012 with a 3F+2T combo. You can see why people were so crazy about Gracie. Her TES scoring potential would’ve been insane in that field.
The JGP has changed dramatically as well. Polina won one event with a 165 in 2013. Now with the field we have, you be lucky to be fourth with that score. Heck even Karen’s 179 in 2013 May not even get you a bronze now!
This morning six girls went completely clean in the JGPF SP. with the hardest tech you can have without a 3A or quad. Two of them broke the WR. This next quad is going to be insane.
