2009 GPF SP - Yu-Na Kim 3-3 / Miki Ando 3-2

[Thepickyone]

Yuna's jumps are perfect. It just LOOKS right.

[Irin081]

Yuna's 3-3 is perfect!!! I cannot believe her jump was downgraded.....

[YK219]

We all shall watch during this Olympic games. How they will mark the perfect 3-3and cheating 2-1 jumps..hmmmm..

This is why sometimes I do not like watch figure skating. :(

[INA101a]

Those techies responsible for wrong calls totally lack professional ethics.

[INA101a]

Incompetent techies... less capable than a three-second slow video. Just replace them with a video reader.

[eoeokim]

Unbelievable! 3-3 judged as 3-3<, 3-1 judged as 3-2. interesting sports...

[centhoover]

they said if your in rome act like roman..if your in Japan act like japanese if your in swiss act like a blind judge like Myriam Loriol-Oberwiler wahahaha

[D8island1]

Yuna's second 3T is more perfect than Ando's 3Lz jump.

[Thepickyone]

@D8island1 true that

[xerxes343]

The technical judge ( Myriam L) should feel ashamed. Get the judges who downgraded Yuna's jump out and Be aware of what they are doing.

[Izabelllee]

In 2008 COC, Yuna's 3-3 got 'Wrong edge' (SP) & 'Attention'(LP). Myriam Loriol-Oberwiler(Swiss) was tech-judge.

In 2009 4CC, her 3-3 got 'Attention'. Hiramatsu Junko(Japan) was tech-judge.

In 2009 WC, her 3-3 got 'Attenton'. Myriam (Swiss) was assistant.

In 2009 GPF in Tokyo, her 3-3(SP) got 'Downgrade'. Myriam Loriol-Oberwiler (Swiss)was tech-judge.

I cann't believe in Myriam(Swiss) any more and she must be a big blind.

[eoeokim]

hahaha. they must be a BEF to each other.

[happys1215]

ando's air position's so baaaaaaaad

[hahassong]

you know........

we will check ISU sponsors.....

you obviously understand the reason.

[sacoski]

Myriam Loriol-Oberwiler......

Maybe she doesn't know how to count 1 2 3. lol. Shame on you.

[xerxes343]

2009 GPF was totally a joke. The technical judge who downgraded only Yuna' 3-3 should feel ashamed. IOC should be careful to choose the judges this coming Olympics. Otherwise they are going to lose real figure skating fans. " I don't know how it could be counted as a downgrade" S.H (NBC)

[ewanjungkim]

Shame on you Judges.

Tech-judge was Myriam Loriol-Oberwiler (Switzerland).

[ChrisitineVaio]

I can not believe that the Swiss techincal specialist did not downgraded Ando's under-rotated jump but downgraded Yuna's fully rotated jump.

[udakacandra]

Weird !!  I think yuna completed her jumps. Shame on you Judges. It's not good for ISU.

[ChrisitineVaio]

Wow, I can not believe that Ando got more points with that jump. It is comparing 3-1 jump and 3-3 jump. Are judges out of mind? Can they count the number of revolution????

[KseniaSemenovaFan]

don´t know what to say, i´m not an expert in skating but yuna´s jumps are just beautiful and i would say yuna completed her jumps!

[pairmint]

Yuna's jump is more exquisite than ando's that already proved from past competitions, and this final judge was so weird that ando didn't get downgraded on her jumps as well as had a higher score than yuna furthermore yuna got downgraded lol

[pairmint]

if she'd got downgrade on her jumps,t should happen to Ando MiKi more than her(yuna). Ando proved lower quilty of jumps. shame,

[Fr0stiePixie]

Are you effing SERIOUS!!??

This is an all time low for the Japanese tampering with the judging system. If Yuna's second jump was a double, then Miki's should have been downgraded to a single. A FIVE-YEAR OLD could tell you this! HOW much money did you have to shove down the ISU's throat to have them tell you, with a hand over their hearts, with both eyes WIDE OPEN, that those two jumps are the same? They are seriously mental, to scam people like this. This competition is utter garbage.

[keunwp]

sad... just sad.

[wirelessme]

Yuna's 3-3 was perfect. but downgraded? haha...very weird....only Money=Judges can explans this. very shame on you Judges!

[sjboy10090]

I heard technical judge who gave Yuna Kim "down graded" is also gave Yuna Kim "Wrong Edge" for her flip jump from last season at Cup of China. Weird. Only this judge is being harsh on Yuna Kim.

[brknpixel]

Video doesn't lie does it? Well the fact of the matter is that as you see on the rink bill board - JP is the #1 source for the ad revenue for the ISU. It is their national interest and that of ISU to make sure Ando wins the Tokyo finals...ANY MEANS NECESSARY. Maybe it's time for a new ISU or put a cap on how much each participating nation can contribute in terms of ad dollars...remember...money talks...even in sports.

[sjboy10090]

@brknpixel

this sad....truly sad..

[imxpnsv]

I agree. Yuna has perfect 3-3 jumps. Cant understand the judges..

[sjboy10090]

Ms. Lynch was i believe Technical judge who gave Yuna Kim downgrande while all other judges gave Yuna Kim extra points for her triple triple. Downgraded for jumps received GOE from every single non technical judges? WTF

[bigworld3025]

exactly!!!!

WTF!

[jolazzzang]

fucking judges go to hell

[jugglesolace]

What a dirty way to pull up Ando Miki to first. So disappointed at how this smell of decay never leaves figure skating even with the change of system.

[wirelessme]

dirty Japan and judges. Yuna's was perfect 3-3.

[paperjuly]

ISU must be kicked out from Olympic with this dirty and crazy judges.

[dusdktkfkago10]

Can't believe Yu-na's triple triple got downgraded.

Go to H*LL you japs!!

[lemonlikelove]

f****ing japs are cheaters!!!!

f*** you japs!!! you guys fed the judges something! ARG!!!

I mean don't get me wrong, MIKI did well bc she didn't make any mistakes, but that downgrade was just unfair. And overall, even though yuna didn't do one jump, she still performed better...

btw, i'm not korean, just incase some people might find my comment offensive and biased... but you know it's true

[ehdtkqorl123]

this kind of attitude doesn't help the situation at all. calm down.

[smilejc85]

I'm absolutely furious! how much sushi were they served for discounted?

[sharonyrose]

Everybody can see whose jump should be downgraded except the blind judges.

[dalbilee]

what's the matter with the TS?

Is he/she blind or something?

Ando did 3-1 and no deduction or downgrade?

[dcwko1]

come on japs do fair play !

[carrollton100]

i have to agree with other comments. can't believe Yuna's jump got downgraded. crazy japanese judges......

[jolazzzang]

downgrade on yuna's toe jump?? fucking bullshit

[nanalee18]

look at Ando . her second jump is 1 and half? rotation?? LOL... ridiculous.. on the contrary.. Yuna;s jump got downgrade? crazy Japanese judges
