I don't think you are getting this are you? They all had to do a "flying routine".
How much skating did Sam, Beth, Ray do in their flying routine?
Yes but they do need to show they can land on the ice surely, not spend the whole of the routine off the ice.

I think you are the one not getting it, the flying routine is supposed to combine flying AND skating which the others did

Well you are clearly not a long term viewer then, because I've seen far better than that.
I clearly am. You just clearly have a dislike of Hayley, hence your thread title about flying then attack her for her solo skate. Who was better then?

I agreed with it as well.
Nope your not, I did too
Good! I am surprised the routine was so unpopular. Yeah the flying isn't the best week on the show but it was gorgeous from Hayley. The finish was somewhat clunky but if the judges are going to ignore mistakes Ray has made over the series, why shouldn't they gloss over one that is partly a product of the flying rig.

There are some really bitter people on here why can't people just admit she was good !
Perhaps these "bitter" people aren't wowed by mediocrity , that could be another possibility .

Did they really, putting their feet on the ice is hardly skating on it. How much skating did Ray do then, I must have switched off mentally as I cant remember much?

As part of their "flying routine", much is made by the judges of quality of the transitions between flying and skating. In Hayley's case - none, but not marked down for it. Difficult to mark as the work was done by the flying operator rather than Hayley meeting the ice comfortably.

How much skating did Sam, Beth, Ray do in their flying routine? - more than Hayley.

I loved Hayley and Dan's flying. I thought it was beautiful and I agreed with Karen, it was the most beautiful flying theres been on DOI. I never enjoyed Suzanne's flying as much as everyone else did. I hope Hayley gets through tonight.

I hope so as well but even if she goes into the bottom two she still has jai ho as a back up.

I'm not anti-Hayley by any means, I voted for her when she won her series but what I don't understand is that a couple of weeks ago the judges were criticising her for her lack of technical ability and now they're awarding her 10's all over the shop. So has her skating skills really improved from mediocre to perfect within a couple of weeks or is this some kind of stitch up?

In jasons Case its anyone other than Beth in the Final.
the others are bad enough but believe if Jason could he would vote solo to have her leave. Haley was good in her year but hasn't been good this time. Its a joke her getting those score and beth getting lower. The only difference is Haley gives the stage School smile

My problem is that the judges mark Hayley high for performance but don;t mark her down for techncal, yet they mark Beth down for performance but don't mark her up for technical. It's so wrong and totally unfair on Beth.

They have stretched every point for Hayley to make sure she gets to the final. I am embarrassed for them and this includes Robin and Karen.

Both girls' routines virtually omitted skating ng, but Beth' s was physically more demanding. Hayley' s was more acted.
Beth's routine was more interesting too. I really hope people have voted for her. It would be funny if Hayley and Ray were bottom two (they'd have to save Ray )

There is no "hate campaign". People are allowed to comment on someone even if they don't like them.

Get over it.

I can't see how they can comment on "transitions" to and from the ice when Hayley did two vertical landings and takeoffs without even moving on the ice. Shameful marking.
Yes, and they specifically stated that 'transitions' were what they would look at when marking a flying routine. I think Hayley is probably a lovely lady but I am totally disheartened by the favouritism shown towards her and the disregard shown to Beth. I agree Beth's performance isn't always quite there but Hayley's skating is so poor in comparison to the others. For Hayley to get the marks she did tonight is just ridiculous. Thankfully Chris spoke up for Beth at last.

As a piece of flying skill, I enjoyed Hayley's routine. The music & choreography matched her performance & overall it was just lovely. However, I'm not really sure why flying is in the competition at all ( I never was, but it just seems even more out of place this year than ever before )


She didn't skate so it seems wrong to criticise others for bad transitions when we didn't see any from Hayley. Plus I do think that the ladies have an advantage in the flying if they are skating with a partner.


So yes - as a piece of entertainment, I loved Hayley's routine. As part of the Dancing on Ice competition, I think she was marked too high.
