The first flight and final flight were absolutely stunning!
The second flight was pretty good and the penultimate group was a hot mess.
Which is why we love #TTW. Find something positive about the skater.I do tend to throw the word "stunning" around quite liberally, for example: barely rotated 3sal from Queen U.
I guess overall she can be pleased. Good job!
Her skating, such a shame 
-POTS-shortlist! There should have been a new drama costume!
Shpilevaya/Smirnov are great but he has to heal his injury first and I have a lot of doubts about Zhuck as a coach, her girls usually can't skate and their knees are pretty stiff
Shevchenko/Eremenko (I know, @SmallFairy willme), I luuurve their material and their looks, but she can not skate
But fingers crossed for a glorious future. #hopedieslastI watched it again (have it recorded). It actually looks more spectacular from the replay-angle, when he's rolling on his stomach. I'll get back to you when I find some online footage
"That wasn't very exciting". Meite - "She looks like an amazon"
Only real meltdown of the whole olympics. Bitchface turned into miserable face
Woke up in time to see momma doing her thing though. Yay
Im ok with the result but I can also see the argument with the PCS overscoring for Alina. Med was thrown under that train at the last minute just like Karenina.
Let's kick some ass at the Challengers next season please!
Closer to AbbaGirl than she is to the winner.
I too want Konstantinova to somehow end up at senior worlds so Gubanova goes to junior, but I hope it's because Zagitova is too busy to go rather then the Fed booting Sotskova. I think this is her last chance. And Polina! WTH? Is she injured again???I'm kind of relieved Olympics are over...now onto the important shit!
Russian Cup final ladies results:
1 Alena KOSTORNIA MOS 216.70 1 1
2 Anastasia GUBANOVA SPB 206.29 2 2
3 Darya PANENKOVA MOS 191.67 3 5
4 Sophia ISTOMINA MOS 190.40 6 3
5 Anastasia GULYAKOVA MOS 190.34 5 4
6 Polina TSURSKAYA 18.19 4 7
7 Anna TARUSINA MOS 187.51 7 6
8 Alyona LEONOVA St. Petersburg 179.32 8 8
9 Ekaterina RYABOVA MOB 172.16 9 9
10 Valeria MIKHAILOVA MOS 167.63 10 10
11 Lidia YAKOVLEVA SPB 158.28 11 11
Another good result for Gubanova here. This is my recommendation to Russian fed:
(a) replace Sotskova at Worlds for Konstantinova
(b) replace Konstantinova at Junior Worlds with Gubanova
Let's spread the wealth!
And not a bad result for Perkova, unfortunately she peaked on the Grand Prix this season.

And Luba/Dylan as well since it seems they aren't going to go to Worlds even with the retirement of Duh/Rad. Something seriously wrong happening with them.Where do you have that from?!
Wasn't there an interview, where they said, they might go for another season, then Vanessa retires; Cipres unsure what to do.
It was in the who's going to world's thread. I think. Or in the secret thread. I'll have to go back and look. There were no details other than the rumor was they weren't going.
-deluxe though, so sad for her!

Ladies Challenge Cup SP tonight, 7:30, central europe time.
Hongo, Klotz, Viking, Mrs3lz3t, Finn#2, Higuchi, random german diva chick, and Rizzochick (+ Honda,who does not fit in this list
So many similarities.

-POTS. [Performance of the Season, for those of you who are new here.]Team medals count for nothing, unless the skater has does something worthy of MESS [Most Epic Splat of the Season], MEEPOTS [Most Epic Ending Pose of the Season, or POTS or even a berth on #TTW.
Daleman is ineligible due to Rule #1, but even without her World medal, she doesn't meet Criterion #4 and arguably doesn't meet #2 or #3 either.
If the TES aren't there, no amount of PCS will save you. (and she's not excactly the first to use this music. Blah!)
@Jeschke Norwegian media is reporting thar around the world people are angry with Da Schott because she's German and is skating to Schindler's List?!?!? Wtf?? Did you hear anything about it? It's about as stupid as it gets
back then there wasn't much twitter and FB (it was discussed, though, sometimes passionately).

I'm not too ashamed to suggest it right now: what about Patrick Chan for the Hall of Fame?
- Is he brilliant?
- Yes!
- Is he a headcase?
- Absolutely!
- Splats?
- Are you kidding?!
- Heartbreak?
- For sure!
