She was such a beautiful and artistic skater. But jumps and consistency were always a weakness, particularly in long programs. I wish she had tried ice dance in competition after 2006...I think she would have been spectacular!
@studyhardplayhard50862 ай бұрын
She was mentally weak. A poor competitor. She was always so up in her own head. She thought she could win the judges over with her flexibility and "pretty" skating. Too bad figure skating is an actual sport requiring technical elements. She wasn't a great skater, but she does have a cult following.

Problem was she came back as the same Sasha who couldn't maintain her focus. she should have spent those years out of eligible skating with a sports psychologist and come back in the grand prix series and at pre-season events such as Campbells, if it still exists, not at US nationals. However, she would have only been as high as silver at the Olympics, even though Cohen is a superior skater the judges will always have " you had had your turn" mentality or a 'wait your turn' mentality. The former would have cost Cohen the gold as it did with Plushenko.

vistaprime What, Sasha Cohen the superior skater? I'm sorry, but you are divorced from reality. In 2010, Yuna Kim with her huge 3Lz-3T (on the correct outside edge), Mao Asada with her 3As. Sasha Cohen even if clean would be 20 points behind those two.

@Juice_Lover1233 жыл бұрын
I'm curious as to how they graded this program. Her only remotely clean triples where Salchows. But, no combination on either. She used double toe loops in combination with the opening Lutz and Flip, so did she intend to NOT put the Salchow in combination? Adding a 3rd 2TL would have been overrepeating that jump, disqualifying it anyway if she'd used it. Was the Lutz supposed to be a 3/3, which explains the absence of the 3 Toe? Did she not get credit for the second Salchow? I don't see how she could have.
@ronaround744 ай бұрын
The limit on double jumps in the long program didn't take effect until the 2014-2015 season, I believe, so Sasha could have tacked on a 2toe to one of her salchow attempts with no penalty.

It wasn’t that she did not work seriously. She could not compete all season due to her injury (tendinitis in the right calf). We were lucky we even got to see her come back to the nationals since she very much could have withdrawn from it. I’m sure she gave out everything she possibly physically could.
