2026 Olys Womens FS PBP - Missed Full of Horrors

[MacMadame]

Curious and checked Petrokina’s Euros FS score, it’d give her around 215 total. She can stay ahead but it’ll have to be excellent.

There has been an "It's the Olympics!" boost to most of the scores.

Coach with short "blond" hair looks like mezzo Joyce DiDonato in profile.

Ok @MacMadame I’m going to dive into your peanut butter cups now. Bombs awayyyyyyyy…..

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Go Sofia!

 

[Matryeshka]

And it's calorie free, right @Matryeshka ?

Yes. Everyone knows while certain skaters are out and about on the ice, calories don't count, cause your heart races so fast you might as well be doing an entire cardio routine. I mean, emotional support calories are a thing. Some have stuffed pierogis, some have vodka. Dumpling potato, fermented potahto.

 

[PRlady]

Gorgeous 2A from Sophia. Love her skating.

 

[overedge]

I guess it wouldn't be a skating competition without at least one Andrew Lloyd Webber program. Ugh. Why did it have to be Sofia's?

 

[slicekw]

So Amber’s sitting at 214 and the best scores in the last two years seem to be between 220-227. But, again, very event-relative. Just to give us an idea of what we’re looking for.

Samodelkina's jumps are just so huge and beautiful. Please, Raf, put all the work into her spins and footwork during this coming off-season. No need for her to lose levels and give up easy points.

 

[Wyliefan]

Sofia is throwing down!

 

[personwhoishere]

I just love the Sunset Blvd score, after seeing it last summer I hoped someone would skate to it

 

[MsZem]

Sunset Boulevard is so awesome, and also not a warhorse! I approve.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Samodelkina's euler actually has some spring to it - it looks like an actual jump and not a mistake!

 

[Yazmeen]

Ya know, not every triple jump has to have arm/arms over the head…

To me, it takes away from the jumps with the constant repetition of it.

Gripe, crab, complain.

 

[Lara]

Carol Lane saying Isabeau suffered in the SP from being US #3 (sadly probably true). Kurt added lack of speed as a reason.

Nice going from Sofia!

 

[tony]

Such effortlessness to the rotation of her jumps -- 2A is between +3 and +4 for good reason. She always lands with a kind of swoopy ease, too.

Don't think this program is as good as her short composition or presentation-wise but she's so consistent. They will have to start rewarding her eventually. And she actually does a decent Euler so all the points for that.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

As Carol Lane just said, Sofia is ready for her closeup!

 

[millyskate]

I fell.asleep again - fortunately mr milly woke .e woth a comment on Samodelkina's TES.

 

[YourBorneo]

I’ll never understand switching mid-song from Glenn’s version to Nicole’s version of With One Look.

 

[Braulio]

Wow Samodelkina nailed it!

 

[Wyliefan]

Amber's trying to start a standing ovation for Sofia. Cute.

 

[Matryeshka]

Sofia needs to lean into this role more. I need a turban and some fur and for her to go full on KMT bedazzle. I think gloves could work with the character but they need to go to the elbows. She needs CRAZY EYES.

 

[slicekw]

Samodelkina's jumps are just so huge and beautiful. Please, Raf, put all the work into her spins and footwork during this coming off-season. No need for her to lose levels and give up easy points.

She really has so much quality, and the Ina Bauer and that lean-back glide are scrumptious.

I love Amber waving to get the crowd to applaud more.

 

[my little pony]

I really like Sofie Samovar, she has a bit of zhuzh to her

Step Sequence 3
3Lz+1Eu+3S

3Lo
Choreo Sequence
Layback Spin 3
Change Foot Combo Spin 3

Group 3 picking up where group 2 left off. Sofia needs to improve those levels on the non-jump elements because the jumps are lovely.

SP: 68.47 = 12th Place
FS: 138.99 = 3rd Place
Total: 207.46 = 2nd Place

I switched to hockey.... be back soon

Ya know, not every triple jump has to have arm/arms over the head…

To me, it takes away from the jumps with the constant repetition of it.

She probably learned them that way, so changing would be a major technique issue.

 

[Karen-W]

Her smile reminds me of Katia's. Sooooo much to love about Samodelkina, so much raw potential!
