Anna and Camila were the two best skaters in the SP at this event, judging by comments on the Russian sites and in actuality. Trusova was clean, slightly more expressive than usual. The rest of the Ladies messed up on jumps, in various ways, even Kostornaya.
I loved Anna's programme, she said in the post-skate interview that it supposed to be more calm and restrained because it is about a "loss" (Anna's rescue dog passed away recently after battling cancer). Camilla was just perfection herself, smooth, floating and limber. Sasha was powerful with clean solid jumps and more expression in the upper body.
Anyone who is annoyed with Eteri's success finds something wrong with the programme.... it's a standard practice with fans. But it does not stop her from winning.....
