Figure Skating Champions SURVIVOR: Ladies QUARTER-FINAL (WITH POLL)

[Amy03]

I'm torn, but I think my vote will have to go to Mao this time. Hard because I love her, but I just don't think she's lived up to her hype.

NO SKATER, and I really mean NO skater, has gotten more hype then yuna kim, and if anyone hasn't live up to the hype it's her, having the judges, and a (flawed) system that totally boosted her scores, and still only delievering a few clean skates in her career (through not having half of the the difficulty or the risky programs that Asada had) That's not living up to the hype!

so if you are voting according to who hasn't lived up to the hype you'r vote should rather go to kim


No one has changed figure skating history more then Mao beeing the women who has showed the most difficult technical content in figure skating history... and people still talk about not living up to her hype, what more do people expect, what more can she do, that she hasn't already done, how many medals and title does she have to collect more for people to recognice what unbelievable achievement she has accomplished...

it's really sad when one uses such baseless argument to vote for Mao!

[BaileyCatts]

Probably the Trash Can has already used FSU's poll quota for the month.

What?? NNNNOOOOO!!!! How will we ever decide the championship then! Must.fix.polls!

[dawnie]

Someone needs to put Amy03 on hara-kiri watch when the polls are fixed and Asada is voted off.

I will vote for Yuna in this round just for you!

[Amy03]

I will vote for Yuna in this round just for you!

hahahahahahahaha

I still haven't voted for yuna myself yet, and i would much more appreciate if you would vote for Irena i have been trying to get rid of her for several rounds now!

[l'etoile]

Amy's come to a rescue for Mao!

[Amy03]

Amy's come to a rescue for Mao!

any time, any day

My vote this round will be Mao. She has been weak for years and never quite reached expectations.

I don't think Kim was overhyped as much as her technique on jumps was soooo strong. And she had decent spins within COP specifications. Mao had issues on most of her jumps, whether UR, prerotation, wrong edge and her spins were not always fast and centered.

Sorry Mao.

[bartek]

hahahahahahahaha

I still haven't voted for yuna myself yet, and i would much more appreciate if you would vote for Irena i have been trying to get rid of her for several rounds now!

OMG, her name is Irina, not Irena... And there is no way she should be voted out before Mao. Irina is superior to Mao in many many aspects.

wheter i pronounce her name irene or irena i think everyone knows who i'm talking about, but if that offended you i will try to remember that her name is pronounced "irina". it wasn't my intention to offend anyone, it's just that where i live irina is not a very common name, so it's hard get used too!

you are free to prefer whichever skater you like, I couldn't care any less, but that doesn't change the fact that there is heaven and earth between there skills both technically and artistically!

(but tell me bartek did my little rant about yunas hype get on your nerves is that why you are soo overly sensitive lol)

[museksk8r]

Voting Mao Asada again.

[Olesh]

My vote is for Kim

[Excidra]

hahahahahahahaha

I guess I am voting for Moa this round..

[gingercrush]

I voted for Irina and hope others follow. I've succumbed myself in the knowledge Asada will go this round or next.

[michiruwater]

Mao, definitely, in this round. Hell, I think she should have gone a few rounds ago, lovely skater though she is.

Mao. Mao is a great skater, but the other 3 are all time great skaters.

Yes there is heaven and earth between Irina and Mao. Slutskaya is a superior skater. The only side of skating Mao is better at then Irina is her line/stretch/posture and artistry but the latter one is very subjective.

Technically Irina is a better skater. User judgejudy has already provided the comparison of their jumps and spins so I'm not repeating that. Irina has also better skating skills.

Besides technical aspect, Irina has better consistency (Asada even in her prime years used to be a bit inconsistent), longevity, a lot more titles.

I completely don't understand why your "little rant" about Yu-Na would get on my nerves??? What's more, it's you who is "soo overly sensitive" person, if there ever was one

[bartek]

Mao. Mao is a great skater, but the other 3 are all time great skaters.

I still hope Mao can join this group.
