That second triple lutz...I dont think i've ever seen a jump so beautifully express a note of music in my life. This program is an exquisite masterpiece. I'd like to put a frame around it and hang it my living room.

Lu was robbed. Kwan's performance was mechanical and slow compared to Lu's. I think the judges wanted a new champion and felt that Chen had her world title already.

I don't think you can put Kwan and Mechanical in the same sentence... Wanna see mechanical skating? just tune in for today's figure skating. CoP = Mechanical skating.

Thank you nutjob. Lu was robbed! As a civilian observer, I can say that Lu's performance was graceful, daring yet confident; passionate yet deliberate, what contained potential energy releasing itself as gracefully as the flight of a bird. In my eyes she earned the GOLD. Operatic in performing to Rac

No prob....this was one of the rare performances where one forgets about the technical elements being performed. They just appear as lovely decorative touches that accent the majestic music.The jumps give the appearance of being totally different from everyone else.

It's interesting, Lu chen had many problems with performing this program throughout the season, while Kwan had skated Salome nearly perfectly every time. Did this effect the judges? I felt that her 2nd 3-lutz represented the fact that everything came together for her (the sun came out in the music too.) In my mind all of her former troubles had been forgotten, it all came together when it counted, and I would have given her the gold.

Absolutely beautiful. I love what Peter said- as far as I am concerned, there should be all 6.0s.
Lulu will be better rewarded for her late jumps in the new scoring system.

Michelle out spun Lu. Lu's flip was a bit higher. I tell ya I would have hated to judge this event. It was very close. Michelle's program had more fire, where Lu's was very calm and reserved maybe that made the difference. Not all the judges agreed and I'm sure fans will argue about it forever.

Spinning in the old system, used at this time, was a secondary skill, the jumps gave more weight to the marks. :)

Que hermoso programa. El de Michelle Kwan es tambien muy lindo, pero el de Lulu es muy superior en lo artistico, y casi igual en lo tecnico. Lu Chen se merecia sin dudas el oro.

This was a great performance and I don't even watch skating, nor do I have to to know that. Captivating is just ONE word for it. I saw both performances and I also think she should have won!

Who cares which of Chen or Kwan should have won. Both were outstanding that night, there was no loser and the biggest winner that night was skating.
