2026 Olys Womens SP PBP - Cheated Rivalry

[Spikefan]

And Petrosian leads OES, just as I said. Judges so obvious.

 

[Sally1214]

Did Kurt just call Gubanova "a little heavier than some of the skaters we've seen?" What's he talking about .... her music or style? Surely, not her weight because she is not heavy. Maybe, I misheard him.

 

[Private Citizen]

Call the E and give it a -2. No !, call the g-ddamn e.

 

[tony]

Lutz edge alert AND rotation alert.

 

[Karen-W]

And Petrosian leads OES, just as I said. Judges so obvious.

Yeah, Imma gonna need this ban to remain in place as long as Putin keeps up his war-making.

 

[JoannaLouise]

I will miss Kaori's perfect 2a when she retires

 

[Carolla5501]

Honestly, I quit watching and I no longer care. We’re going to give Russia a medal because they don’t deserve to have to pay for their sins.

 

[slicekw]

Waving goodbye during the donut spin should give Sakamoto so many extra points for, like, getting the idea of her song.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Yeah, Imma gonna need this ban to remain in place as long as Putin keeps up his war-making.

Yeah, I'm sure that is the prime Putin's concern.

 

[Braulio]

God damn technical panel, everything in yellow with Kaori, everything!

 

[tony]

So yeah, Lutz I really think was short of landing and I've been screaming give the e for years and years. So clean and ! is coming.

3F was a little off in the middle and she definitely reset on the landing, 3T was fine but the GOE shouldn't be sky high.

Nervy.

 

[marbri]

So I missed the first group. Did they yellow blob every jump and then some for the first group ?

[umronnie]

Yasss Queen

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

God damn technical panel, everything in yellow with Kaori, everything!

They are probably reviewing to give her Lv5

 

[Karen-W]

Only a L3 on the camel spin and under review for Kaori. And the combo also goes under review. If the panel is as harsh on her as they were on Alysa & Isabeau then I'm not sure she beats Alysa in the SP today.

 

[MsZem]

Yesssssss Kaori

Give this loads of marks.

 

[allezfred]

Never has been my favourite skater, but that was wonderful.

 

[Colonel Green]

Beautiful.

We now wait to see whether the tech panel has rediscovered Sakamoto's flutz after all these years.

 

[flyingsit]

If Petrosian got 8s in PCS, Liu and Sakamoto should get 12s

 

[Private Citizen]

Glad they're reviewing the combo, which looked as short as anything Levito did.

I'd love the judges to put THAT behind Petrosian .

I'll be angry if it's above third. Liu and Nakai were better, easily.

 

[Bunny Hop]

Skakamoto - Eeek, huge lean on the lutz in the air but landed. Axel good. Lots of ice coverage on combo. Spins and footwork great. Tech score behind Nakai (no surprise) but great job.

 

[canbelto]

She is such a beautiful skater. Love her smooth edges.

 

[my little pony]

omg you guys Im gonna miss St Kaori so much

 

[Jay42]

Nervy but she got the job done

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Kaori and Time to Say Goodbye is making me cry.

 

[skatingguy]

So I missed the first group. Did they yellow blob every jump and then some for the first group ?

Pretty much - technical panel has been very busy today.

 

[personwhoishere]

Tears and chills

 

[NinjaTurtles]

A bit tight and shaky throughout. You can tell how bad she wants it.

 

[my little pony]

I completely wiped that from my memory, although i do remember the conversation. But he defs was linked to the death of a 14 year old girl, not his ex.

actually the minor he ALLEGEDLY killed he also "dated"
