Olympian1010 7,516 Posted August 1, 2019 #51 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Honestly deserved like a 56. in my opinion. mrv86 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

mrv86 2,926 Posted August 1, 2019 #52 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I think this is the first time I witness a duet/team receiving a lower score in free than in technical. thiago_simoes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympian1010 7,516 Posted August 1, 2019 #53 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Yes, there were a few execution and synchronization errors, but that performance was miles ahead of Guatemala. Cuba just lacks the cadence and higher skill level of the top nations. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,516 Posted August 1, 2019 #54 Share Posted August 1, 2019 got underscored in my opinion.

Olympian1010 7,516 Posted August 1, 2019 #57 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Good routine from Brazil. No major mistakes, but I don’t know if it was a technical as the top 3. Still a good showing. Should score 82-84. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

Olympian1010 7,516 Posted August 1, 2019 #58 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I see the judges are using an IPad Pro 11 inch. Good choice, not that I’m biased or typing this response on one... “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

She also occasionally has a very charming figure skating podcast. Always really loved her energy (she strikes me as very wholesome). Edit: on Twitter she mentioned she was announcing for the roller figure skating events, too xD Edited August 1, 2019 by NearPup Olympian1010 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
