2017 Europeans Pairs FS

[whatif]

J6 or French judge really tried it.

 

[nolangoh]

A +3 GOE across the board is so satisfying to look at (Bruno and Aliona sky-reaching 3Tw)

 

[Violet Bliss]

It is good and relaxin to know that the judges know what they are doing

But some of them have clumsy fingers.

GOE on T/M final lift ranging from -3 to +3 And they also got a 10

Hmm.... the same judge that gave them a 10.00 was the same judge who gave them a +3?

Anyone able to clarify which country Irina Medvedeva represents?

In all fairness I think it did come out about right... I think the appropriate GOE probably would have been about zero- there was a glaring issue but there were also several good bullet point qualities- and the total GOE was only just slightly above that.

 

[whatif]

Well, T/M aren't (almost) 74 PCS skaters either. It is what it is.

sure.

Watching Vanessa & Morgan with my husband...His comment when the camera shows John Zimmerman: "Yeah guy, run your hands through that mane while you still can!"

Just like the Russia judge gave T/M a 10.00 and +3 on their last lift.

 

[atsumiri]

sure.

And S/M 75.44 ......

But she was also giving out sky high PCS to S/M and J/C too! So I don't even care!

J1's PCS are
Nothing lower than 9.50 for any team in the final group.

Speaking of really trying it , on top of T/M's 10.00 and +3 on a flawed lift, most surprisingly, the same judge gave S/K 9.75 for SS, PE & IN, 9.50 for TR, and a 10.00 for CO -- the equivalent of 78.00 PCS. For a performance with a fall. LMAO

Technically she gave high scores to everybody =)
some of her stuff:
a +2 on S/M 3T+2T+SEQ and a +3 on their 3S
+3 on J/C 5BLi4 and their FiDs4 also
She was also the one who gave highest PCs to J/C btw
Also gave some high goe's to M/H

Looks like a happy one that loves everybody to me =)

Russia is celebrating these days.

 

[Li'Kitsu]

What an amazing last group! Such a great evening for skating, and I hope all of the teams are happy and proud of themselves.

Can't lie though, enjoyment-wise I'd have that podium reversed. What a beaaaauuuuutiful LP from Aljona and Bruno, and there are simply no words to describe the Frenchies!

 

[luckyguy]

The last group was simply amazing. One thing is clear. When Savchenko/Massot do not make mistakes, nobody can beat them.

 

[Sabrina]

Why did Aliona jump a 2A Th? I guess that's the easiest throw jump among triples.

 

[Meoima]

The last group was simply amazing. One thing is clear. When Savchenko/Massot do not make mistakes, nobody can beat them.

Even if she did not fell in the SP, they would not be able to score 80 like T/M, they did pop jump in LP so the score in LP might be higher. It might be very close.
They need 3A throw to win T/M. But with her injury, this is a huge achievement. They should be happy with that.

 

[bobbob]

Great skate from EVERYONE, really fantastic!

Once again though, Tarasova and Morosov receive incomprehensible PCS. TES they were amazing, maybe deserving even more than S/M, but their components should have been 5 points lower. Skating skills are good, but choreography and interpretation? Anyways worlds will be exciting! I think I'd still have to favor Queen Sui and Han, but Tarasova/Morosov, Savchenko/Massot, Stolbova/Klimov etc. will make it interesting. If clean, even J/C could contend for a medal, something we could not have envisioned before this competition.

 

[sarama]

T/M's last lift was definitely problematic, but for example the commentators I was listening to didn't realise that at all, I guess some judges did the same, although I think it was pretty obvious and they are supposed to be paid for noticing mistakes.... Anyway I hope at least these scores won't be revised... they deserved to win, even though they desperately need some more charisma on the ice: they are TOO NICE, which makes them cute but boring, they need lessons from Ksenia or Trankov on how to sell it a little more!
