Double posting from the Kiss & Cry:
Curious if any of you have an opinion about why Lajoie & Lagha lost the choreographic steps in the FD. (Curious because if it happened to them, it could undoubtedly happen to other teams).
The bullet points on p. 8 here for the choreographic step sequence are the following: https://www.isu.org/inside-single-p...ications-fs/16863-isu-communication-2148/file
1. Performed anywhere in the program. (Well, it would be hard to miss that one).
2. Must be placed around the short axis and proceed from barrier to barrier. (So there's two parts to that one).
3. May be in hold or not touching. (Doesn't say it can be both so I suppose it's possible to muck that one up).
My guess would be #2: didn't proceed from barrier to barrier. Hard to see how far forward they come after the lift because the camera doesn't show the barrier. But it doesn't look like they come too far. So my guess is that they didn't come close enough to that first barrier.
Program is here.

It's only the 2nd element in if anyone else wants to take a look & hypothesize. (Only other thing I can think of is that maybe they get up to the barrier but don't separate until after they have left it and maybe the element doesn't start to count until after the separation). Thoughts?
