It is harder to jump with what is understood as textbook technique. Huge jumps that look beautiful are in fact more difficult to control. Smaller less spectacular jumps, often with "optimised" features like prerotation, are more secure and use up less energy. There is a certain trade-off.Just making a general observation really. Many of the folks that people seem to use as examples of great technique (Liza, Caro, even Yuzu) have a history of poor showings or even entire seasons :scard7:.
I just find it curious.
