Grand Prix Final 2012/2013 @Sochi, Russia

btw how did the perf go? did she land all?

OH MY GOD!!! YES!!!

freaking unbelivable! I knew she can do it! I was crying by the end, to be honest I don't remember much of her program, cause I was so nervous and just kept chanting land the jumps.

GO MAO!!!

She holds the highest sp score, LP score and total score of the season.

medal ceremony now!!!

Watching in live is not enjoyable , I was so nervous, What happened to the other girls??, may be the ice problem that commented some skaters, I am super happy for Mao, she deserve this so much. Last december was a nightmare, she was incredible today

To get such a score - am guessing she did land everything perfectly!

All I did was listen to the commentators and when they said,"Wow!", I thought,"OH MY GOSH! NO FALLS OR ANYTHING, RIGHT?! NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY!!!!!"

It was pretty obvious that Mao would win first after her performance, without even looking at the score. However, she got 118 or something like that in NHK, but she messed up a lot there. Here, she score only 11 points more with almost a clean skate? Is that normal or fishy? I felt like she deserved higher. Maybe I'm just biased.... Lol!

Elizaveta scored 0.20 more than Mao in TES? But she messed up! Okay. I'M OFFICIALLY CONFUSED.

Mao did it!


I cried.

So do I, thank God I'm home alone, othervise my family would really think I need medical help.

I don't know how I'll survive until the worlds. I think i'm more nervous than Mao who's actually competing.

I told myself iIwouldn't do this, but I can't help myself so here it goes: TAKE THAT MAO HATERS!

mao sharing a little chat with wagner on the podium aww i think they were talking about ashleys fall, her hip hurt it seems

Her score is 196.80!!!!

looked a little bit conservative, though, mao is gorgeous for her almost perfect performance! she almost broke the 200 marks! great job! her late mother must be very proud of her.
i can't wait to see how phil hersh would report this; and how yu-na would score in nrw.

So sweet that Mao is asking Ashley about her hip - (since she banged it pretty hard) -
So so so very happy for her!

Now waiting for the protocols lol (seems like my day isn't over yet lol)

Well she wasn't clean - But the most clean skater of the day!

I'm pretty sure Mao got "e" on lutz and there were probably some UR's. But look at her PCS, 66!

I'M SERIOUSLY CONFUSED. I saw this, and I don't know how Elizaveta scored 0.20 higher than Mao in TES. I'm just confused! She messed up more than Mao!

Considering the injury Mao was really good! Now she has time to rest a bit, hope she come back even stronger!

That's very true. Her PCS is difficult to compete with. The only other person I can think of that can compete with that is Kim Yu-na, but she hasn't been in competition for more than a year. She and Mao are in a whole new level when it comes to skating; I think the PCS reflects that.

I found this.

How did Elizaveta score 0.20 higher in TES? But she messed up a lot!

That's sweet, hopefully the whole medal ceremony will be posted on youtube so I can see Mao receiving her first GPF gold medal after 4 years.

http://www.isuresults.com/results/gpf1213/gpf1213_Ladies_FS_Scores.pdf protocols, she got two UR and e on lutz, but that's ok! Just imagine without it she would get more then 130 )

LOL! I did the exact same thing as I did in the short program. I closed my eyes and muted the music during the jumps. Hahaha!

I guess she saying " I had a fall like this in worlds 2008, is really painful"

Two of Mao triples was downgraded - She had an e - and she doubled her Sal -
Liza had some considerable mistakes but she rotated all her jumps - And she did have a 3-3!

Here are the protocols http://www.isuresults.com/results/gpf1213/gpf1213_Ladies_FS_Scores.pdf
