2026 Olys Womens FS PBP - Missed Full of Horrors

[Hanna]

The Shark I think this can be counted as a nice ending to Lara's Olympics.

That euler-salchow does not get points from me though.

 

[my little pony]

LaNaGu!love her

 

[peibeck]

Lara was very conservative at the top of this program but really came alive halfway through.

Beautiful, powerful performance on home ice - what an Olympic moment for Lara.

SP: 61.56 = 18th Place
FS: 134.19 = 1st Place
Total: 195.75 = 1st Place

 

[Karen-W]

Aw, that was so great for Lara! So much better than the TE FS!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Guttman clean on the jumps!!!! Both 3Los looked a bit short but will probably escape with a q given this panel. Sad for that doubled lutz in the short, or she'd have had a very different Olympics. This should move her way up!

On the flip side, she might have skated differently in the free if she'd been in the final group for the free.

So wish Gutmann had delivered in the short and made the final group. I think a clean skate there and she would've shook things up.

I think this is going to lead for a long while, unless Amber is perfectly on.

To be fair, they're calling the e. For now.

But also Adeliia is the only one planning to do multiple quads.

In the SP one skater got an e, and three skaters got a <. Tons and tons of ! and q otherwise. Quads or not, call the rotation and the edges as they actually are. Across the board.

That choreo seq should have gotten way more than 1.5 GOE. What a great spiral for one thing.

 

[Jay42]

I think this is the best Lara has skated Jaws this season. So happy for her!

 

[overedge]

I quite enjoyed that. Especially using some of the lesser-known music from the JAWS soundtrack.

 

[Colonel Green]

Lara couldn't have asked for much more from a home Olympics.

 

[Lara]

Yes!!! That’s what I was hoping for!

1.5 GOE is a +3

 

[ks1227]

I am so happy for Lara Naki and that performance! I really wanted her to end up higher after the short program, but being able to skate this great long program cleanly, in Italy, must be a great feeling!

 

[beckab81]

Yay Lara!!!!

 

[Hedwig]

ah good for her

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I think some of these landings were fishy

 

[BaileyCatts]

Would someone please tell these idiot NBC camera people to not zoom in on faces at the start of the routine! Lara's opening movements set the tone for 'Jaws' and they missed her whole opening. They did the same to Ellie and Danny. Idiots.

 

[MsZem]

The Shark Has Attacked.

Yay Lara! That should slay some of the later performances...

 

[tony]

I think some of these landings were fishy

 

[alj5]

Great job from Shark-Naki!

 

[Braulio]

Attention Canadians: the women’s hockey team just scored!

NO spoiler please, there is a thread for any other sports news

 

[Finnice]

Lara is not dull.

1. I don't know why you're acting why I'm disagreeing with you. I specifically said something about it in the first few minutes of this thread. I was giving a reason why people might be more concerned about rotation calls.
2. I said they knew where the e button was because we've saw one very early on in this program and it took a while to see any URs or downgrades.

Nice job, Bruce. IYKYK.

 

[Sally1214]

Lara nailed it! Kurt's on a roll with his puns .... "she didn't look like a fish out of water" and he really wanted her "to take a bite out of it." Enough, Kurt. I loved her program ... and so did both Carol and Kurt. The judges did too .... nice score there.

 

[Rob]

Annoyed at NBC spoiling the hockey game results. I was taping to watch after skating.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Lara couldn't have asked for much more from a home Olympics.

She probably would have asked not to get an invalid element in the SP.

 

[MacMadame]

Who is the caller? I asked Chat GPT and I got a link to a song called 'Ladies LP' by the J Geils Band.

Um, ChatGPT is not a search engine. These sorts of queries are much better for Google.

Why does (almost) everyone revert to Adeliia when we have a World Champion with the worst most obvious flutz ever, skaters from the US and Japan with questionable rotation on quite a few of their jumps by default, etc?

Oh, it's FSU.

It's because we don't want her to medal.

Any chance we could avoid updates for those of us who plan to watch later?

And those of us who don't give a crap as well.
