Miki Ando 2009 Cup of Russia

did you see the costume of Miki at cup of Japan?

i absolutely prefer this one at Russia!!!

she put the image Cleopatra at her Free Program this year.

she seems that she is not ready about program.
she didn't satisfy her own performance.

anyway,
she won the title both Russia and NHK (Japan) but see the score...


far below of Yu Na Kim at TEB at Paris.
even Kim didn't give us perfect performance...

what is going on...

Kim' score at TEB :210.03 pt

Ando Russia: 171.93
Ando NHK Japan: 162.55

Suzuki China:176.66

i am not familiar about skating techniques but i would like to know what is soooo difference between Kim and other skaters...
