Team Helsinki Rockettes (FIN) | Free Skating | Lake Placid 2023 |

The Finns are always very strong skaters/teams. The fall was unfortunate. Lots of difficult entrances and exits to their elements and all performed with good speed. Well done 👍👏👏

[@HenrykBilor]

Amazing! For me the best :).

[@bryand6811]

Personally I feel like they should've been 1st despite the fall

[@Jfldhr]

They should have, the fall deduction was 1 point , however the camera angle didn't do justice for the Les supreme team.

@@Jfldhra fall can also effect the teams bottom score. Les supremes performance was well delivered and they deserved to win.

[@N1fan34]

Absolutely not.

They have fallen!!! They should have received third 🥉 place instead because the other Finland team was a flawless free program than this team, just saying! Every top team skated a flawless program but them!!! Please enlightened me why they received second 🥈 place with a fall?!!

[@agostinhorodrigues1289]

they had better tech calls and GOE (grade of execution), the other finnish team had a higher score in the free program but in their short Rockettes had a higher score so the total score was higher

@@agostinhorodrigues1289 Thank you for your insight though I took notes of the short program score; Finland Team Unique; 76.13 and free program 161.98 overall score 237.68 and they skated after the Canadian team Nexxice and the Finland Rockette short program score 78.61 behind the Canadian team Les Supreme, but they have fallen in the free program which should have been an automatic deduction and less than grade of execution to receive the 🥈 place medal, the free program score and the judges were generous of 160.95, overall score of 237.86 in my point of view because if it was another team, they would have been penalized because I saw it all the time: a fall is a fall and it's usually a RED for that element and don't matter of the grade of execution so I am sorry that the Finland Unique didn't receive the 🥈 place medal because in my book 📚, they should have gotten instead!!! Gave Finland Rockette a .20 lead over the Team Unique because that fall was not 🚭🚫 penalized with that red mark and minus negative mark and it should have been for that element but it wasn't and that is why that they received a silver medal instead of a bronze medal!; Because a fall is a fall and the skater is usually penalized or fallen out of a jump, spin or whatever: a mistake is a mistake and the skater is usually penalized and that's a fact and sometimes, the skater is off the podium and I witnessed this: Team Unique gave a flawless free program worthy of second 🥈 place than not 🚭🚫 a flawless free program in my book because a fall is a fall and a mistake is a mistake and they should be rewarded in third place: but congrats to all the medalists of Finland for their second 🥈 place and third 🥉 place performances!!!

@@gailjones1807 I think the fall was during a transition, which is why none of the elements had negative GOEs. It wasn't technically in an element, so there was just a one point deduction.

[@gailjones1807]

@@bookworm62442 I saw it again and her partner had to catch up for the next element, but I still feel the same, the other Finland Team skated a flawless free program and they should have received silver 🥈 medal instead of the Rockettes, just saying to me, Unique Team was technical but had artistry too; I felt their passion than the Rockettes, but it's subjective so it seems... congrats to all medalists for their performance!!!

[@bookworm62442]

@@gailjones1807 I also liked Team Unique better, but everybody has different opinions, and most of the judges just preferred the Rockettes. Skating is subjective, so what really matters is if the team felt like they did well, despite the scores.
