“There is a certain dullness to the performance” - love the Toller shade

LOL yes... Natalia showed 10x more personality smiling and waving in the kiss & cry than she did in her entire long program.

Beyond Ito, Trenary, and to some degree Yamaguchi (who fell twice in the free skate), the other women in contention for a medal (Lebedeva, Cook, Sargeant, and Neske), only had triple toe and triple sal, with the occasional triple loop thrown in for good measure.

She never went through her program with the music??? Very odd.

@premierrules are you saying Cook was better artistically. Hell no. Yeah this was boring and bland, but atleast she moved and stroked well. Cook looked like a novice skater, stumbling around on basic stroking and steps, barely able to hold her arms properly, and her music, hahaha, she had godawful music and music cuts. Lebedeva was clearly robbed to be placed below Cook and Sargeant in the LP and should have easily won the bronze overall.
