2019 World Championships Ladies Free Skate

[anonymoose_au]

I suppose we are watching different streams.
On my, Zhenya has a pokerface on, and only starts to smile when she sees the camera is doing a closeup on her.

Ok Zhenya isn't as happy as she would be if she won a gold obviously, but I think you're been unfair to her. She had a bad injury last year and has been working hard to overcome it.

For whatever reason she felt she had to move onto a new coach, that's her right. Was it the best decision for her career? Who knows? But she's the only one who can decide what to do with her own life.

Actually it doesnt look like, whenever she doesnt know she is on camera, her face is pretty not happy. When she sees the camera is on her, she starts smiling.
You can see Liz and Alina smiling nonstop, while Zhenya has a pokerface most of the time.

I can only have a good, hearty laugh at this because it’s beyond ridiculous. Your intentions are so obvious.

Personally, I‘m happy for all the ladies on the podium. They all looked happy and proud. Congrats.

She got 3 points for it.
A clean 3A would have given her 10 or so, max 12 (+5GOE across the board), so +7 points, max +9 points against her current score.

She got 223, against alina's 237, a difference of 14 points. Imho, even with a clean 3A, she would be second, because of the SP mistake.


But i agree that even the way she skated, she deserved a medal here.

I would disagree. Her jumps are smaller and heavier than ever. Her axel also got worse than before, with axis issues on almost every jump. Her Lutz is still a flutz.

My God, your Medvedeva hate is extremely tiresome.

That was her best skating all season, give the girl some credit, she's doing the best she can with what she's got. She knows she still has a long way to go to rework her technique.

The power of Eteri! The podium all current and former students!

Maybe next year’s podium as well!

 

[theharleyquinn]

Other two girls are bubbly all time for some reason.
But i suppose people see what they wanna see. They want to see improvement and happiness with the coaching change, they see it. They wanna see hapiness with losing a tournament, they see it.

I would hardly say Alina has a bubbly personality.

 

[oatmella]

As someone who was kinda outraged that Liza missed out on going to Worlds

Evgenia proved she was worthy of the spot here!

No doubt that she will continue to work and improve.

 

[SarahSynchro]

I would hardly say Alina has a bubbly personality.

Heck, neither does Lil Bet.

 

[theharleyquinn]

More than anything, I'm very impressed that Zhenya was able to improve her spins over the course of the season because they were in bad shape between her back issues and time off the ice. I was really impressed.

Heartbroken for Kaori, who really had an incredible season. I hope she and Benoit keep growing together

What are you talking about? You are a painting a picture that is not reality and stemming from your dislike towards her!

It was six men of Indostan,
To learning much inclined,
Who went to see the Elephant
(Though all of them were blind),
That each by observation
Might satisfy his mind.

The First approach'd the Elephant,
And happening to fall
Against his broad and sturdy side,
At once began to bawl:
"God bless me! but the Elephant
Is very like a wall!"

The Second, feeling of the tusk,
Cried, -"Ho! what have we here
So very round and smooth and sharp?
To me 'tis mighty clear,
This wonder of an Elephant
Is very like a spear!"

The Third approach'd the animal,
And happening to take
The squirming trunk within his hands,
Thus boldly up and spake:
"I see," -quoth he- "the Elephant
Is very like a snake!"

The Fourth reached out an eager hand,
And felt about the knee:
"What most this wondrous beast is like
Is mighty plain," -quoth he,-
"'Tis clear enough the Elephant
Is very like a tree!"

The Fifth, who chanced to touch the ear,
Said- "E'en the blindest man
Can tell what this resembles most;
Deny the fact who can,
This marvel of an Elephant
Is very like a fan!"

The Sixth no sooner had begun
About the beast to grope,
Then, seizing on the swinging tail
That fell within his scope,
"I see," -quoth he,- "the Elephant
Is very like a rope!"
And so these men of Indostan
Disputed loud and long,
Each in his own opinion
Exceeding stiff and strong,
Though each was partly in the right,
And all were in the wrong!

MORAL,

So, oft in theologic wars
The disputants, I ween,
Rail on in utter ignorance
Of what each other mean;
And prate about an Elephant
Not one of them has seen!

Damn, they've been quite harsh on Zhenya this competition while letting others slide.

 

[kevinVchicago]

Oh, mom Elizabeth shy "No, you go" (to father Lilbeth) "Let's go, let's go, they said that two can go too" It's about picture together at the end. So cute

[emoji847][emoji847][emoji847]so cute!

 

[vitamintea]

I think Raf behaved pretty unprofessionally today by snubbing Eunsoo after an emotional program. Who knows what happened, but she was clearly upset after some mistakes and the least he could have done was a hug, some kind words, etc. Especially when he should know all eyes would be on them.

I knew Evgenia was ready after the test skates. I was arguing for Liza instead od Sofia... and now it looks (even Sofia didn't skate badly) i was probably right

 

[Mishaminion]

I saw no snubbing, what.

 

[kevinVchicago]

I love that everyone is defending Zhenya this year. What a different story from the last two years! Am I right, though? [emoji1787]

Everlasting love to LA DÉESSE! I cried a lot for her this morning. What a beautiful end to the season.

 

[theharleyquinn]

Raf handed her her guards and walked away and was visibly icy in the K&C. The camera didn't catch him saying a single word to her.

I think it's best for everyone if she switches coaches after this season. I largely expect it.

 

[ancientpeas]

Guys..not the time or place to debate the Eunsoo-Mariah-Raf issues please. Let us wait until we get an official comment from Eunsoo please.
