Well, you have your opinion. Rochette is thought to be elegant and lady-like by some.
I agree with you about Lepisto though - she's gorgeous.
I would just point out that if the US were paying off judges they wouldn't do it for Rochette. They have skaters of their own.
This is Leonova's performance, so I will comment on it - she is really cute. She reminds me of my favourite all-time skater Slutskaya - costumes, spunk and apple-cheeks - it's all there.

what is the name of this song?

Rochette has no style, who cares if she can junp she is plain. Lepisto has a nice dancing style. The artistry in the Canadians has never been there, yet, the US makes sure they get high scores, wondering if the judges were paid off or threaten, a style the US is well known for.

definitely! i totally agree with you. I just see any QUALITY skating here.. i mean, she is all right, but is there more to it? i guess not..

(2) And since spiral IS a required element, it should look nice, but here it just doesn't!
She is an athlete here, but there s no expression whatsoever..

well, it's kind of myopic to call a good split position ridiculous ;) esp. considering that it's not that hard to achieve (it's nothing like required in rhythmic gymanstics), but a nice extension in figure skating certainly adds quality to the skating.
But like you said even if one doesn't have that much flexibility, one can strive for clean and graceful lines, not like in Leonova's case here..

She is the exact same build, has the exact same air positions and feel for the music. I see it...
that was a beautiful program but she does need to work on her spiral sequence and her layback was quite traveled and her jumps are beautiful but a triple triple would be amazing =)
it was nearly a clean program

I really enjoyed watching her skating, very emotional and energetic. And the music is fabulous. Beautiful!
