Can I just say how much nicer it is to read along here than at GS?

Here everybody cheers all the skaters, nobody has weird, angry hangups with any of them, or starts arguing about skaters who are not even in the competition.

Really this forum.

the audience was as shook as me at the score 

Well... my podium is a mess anyway, but at least I got Alina... so Eteri swept ladies golds  (plus two other medals)

And again, what's happened to the tech panel overnight? 

And wow Caro almost got to the podium

Poor Waka, and Satoko kept her poise despite the shock. 

Not a brilliant gpf for jpn, across disciplines.

Jr ladies stole the show (and Alina is barely out of juniors herself )

And Maria got silver, as everytime I place her out of podium  I bring her luck  Now her chances for the third only spot are even higher

Please russians at Olys please

Yeah, in juniors Eteri-students got all three medals. And even another one of her girls skated clean at the grand prix finals. That competition was insane. Seniors weren't quite as clean, but it was still exciting. Eteri and her charges can go home with big smiles.

Not to mention she has another junior, who might be better than all of them, but is getting back from injury now.

Masha might have made her claim of the third spot much stronger now... 

She should pretty much have it now, I think, unless she does really badly at Russian Nationals.

The last few months, she has done a lot of medal-grabbing for Russian figure skating, even if she never won.

thought Satton will cement her place as one of the 2 ladies for team Japan olys for sure, but with this it's still open I guess 

I thought she had it in the bag until I saw that score.

I'm torn between being happy about tech panel doing its job and being flabbergasted

So flabbergasted, that I forgot to be happy for Alina for a bit.

Wish there would have been at least one Japanese lady on the podium.

Julia is just an ice-goddess, whether she comments or skates, it  doesn't matter.

oh, no ... Satoko is 5th ... no way 

Understand some UR, but this??

Huh????

Scores.... so nervous!

So happy for her and for Japan, especially after Yuzu withdraw, it's great to see this.

So exciting. She will beat Alina on PCS... what will happen..?

Short on the flip...don't mind!

Go Satoko!

Maria watching

Love the courage people like Alina and Alexandra Trusova have to put in so much technical difficulty.

Not her best, but still first in TES.

Wow!

Alina! The only thing that can stop her now is nerves.

Love her attitude in the K&C

Love how fast Kaetlyn is, but what happened in the end?

Oh no.

Her axels are great. Wonder if she turns them into a triple any time soon.

Masha is lovely and has been really consistent this entire GP series / finale.

I feel bad that she just has no presence for me.

I feel the same, even though I think she's a nice girl. Perhaps it's partly her programs (last year's were a snoozefest)

Good job, Maria!

Get those triples in.
