Yikes, I haven’t scored poth yet, but I have a lot of deductions listed, so breaking from the pack here.

 

[allezfred]

Granny was clearly inspired by this competition to get her Granny do.

Sarcastically, I can’t decide if Poth’s nightie is an extra .1 or minus .1 LOLOL. Plus, it works with gone with the wind this next year? Ha.

I feel like I saw this dress in 2000, too.

 

[Jeschke]

I kinda like the music

 

[Clay]

The times granny was 16

Granny went from 17/18 to 70 something in 2001-2002 season lol. She just thought she had been around for a while and that’s why she got the nickname.

4.6/4.8
10

Spoiler: Granny ended up last in my ranking.

More pops than a bowl of cereal...

Don't worry about it. Of the 5 judges I've uploaded scores, her ordinal spread is 12 places.

I guarantee you're not breaking out too much.

Sebestyen

Now this is a costume, tulle skirt, fingerless gloves, and cheerleader colors!

-3z-2t great height on first jump
-1a
-weak spiral sequence
-2f

This is a disaster jump-wise and not a lot of presentation either

 

[Jeschke]

Dress!

Keep in mind the double flip WAS legal and even put her in the final group at the 2000 Worlds.

Shit, judging gets tricky here again during Yulia’s skate. I think some judges had to drink a bit here.

 

[casken]

Sebestyen

.4 axel
.2 layback
Only a double flip

4.6

I loved Vorobieva in 96, but I find the presentation here godawful, the jumps stalked and underrotated, terrible music cuts, and bad dress.

 

[Jeschke]

5,4/5,5

Vorobieva

Was she really from Azerbaijan or had they already started importing?

-3z-2t very long held entry edge
-3f <
-2a
-relaxed composed performance
-Euro standard of spirals, i.e., not great
-great fast scratch spin to end, I miss those!

Well done!

4.8/5.1

J. Sebestyen - what a bummer, I actually liked her program 0.4 deduction for both jumps I guess

4.8/5.3

5th

 

[skateboy]

Vorobieva
5.5
5.6

 

[ldec]

Vorobieva - now those were some wild landings

5.3/5.2

4th

 

[skateboy]

What the hell are those scores for Vorobieva??

 

[casken]

Vorbieva

I overlooked the UR for the combo but .2 for UR solo jump surely
.2 that I feel bad about taking for the end of that crazy combo spin traveling at the end

5.2 5.4

 

[alchemy void]

Love for Lenka. The second skater tonight with specially composed music, titled with her name.

This needs to become a trend immediately. I want a "Travesty for Tuktamysheva" SP next season!

 

[her grace]

Kulovana

-nice graceful arms
3t-3t slow going into it
-2s
-2a and hands down
-polished movement, could use more speed and power

Me too, but those music cuts were bad!

Legal, but not impressive. When you don't have a reputation or presentation, you need all the harder jumps you can get.
