How would you compare her to Trusova? I always felt like they were similar in the aspects of their skating (outside of the jumps, where Sasha has more and better quads). I feel that Tuk May have believed she was undermarked because Sasha was getting better scores than her on spins, steps, components, etc, even though she also had less transitions, didn’t have the strongest step sequences, and had weaker spins than some of the others.
(I know you didn't ask me, but still)
Compared to Sasha, Liza is a much better performer as far as living her music goes. With Sasha it's one of the most extreme cases of "My coach has given me this music to skate to and has told me at what moments I have to lift my arms, where to look and to make a surprised face at minute x". Perfromance wise she's totally disconnected.
But, as an Eteri girl, of course she has way better spins, steps, transitions etc than Liza. Jump content not to mention.
I feel like Liza and Mishin are painfully oblivious to the fact that tech is more than just jumps and components is more than just interpretation of the music
