Titushkina was very impressive. 3Lz+3T, 3F, 2A. Very nice, easy looking jumps. She's quite elegant and polished (and tall!) for a 13 year old. Her spins are a bit slow, though. It was a great international debut, though, and she's definitely looking like a medal threat and a JGPF contender if she can keep it together.

Viljanen was also really pleasant to watch, with nice polish and good basics. Unfortunately, the video cut off and you could only see a 3T+2T and a 2F....

It looks like Ashley skated well; she just doesn't have the tech content.

Plus it was nice to see the jumps were not the first 3 elements. I liked the steps going into her 3F. Her skate is a bit sloppy, she has the Bambi look on the ice but that it is totally fine for a 13 year old. Overall a very very nice debut and I like her

She really looks promising. If she had a bit faster spins, she would score better of course. I am also glad that she will come to JGP Bosphorus.

I think we will see a battle between Radionova and Lam in this competition. Titushkina may get the bronze medal here.

I really liked that too!

Titushkina is much, much better than at previous season!
Htr slowness - her permanent problem, but now she is much faster.
Technical level much higher.

It's her best SP for all the time. Waiting for FS.

[dorispulaski]

Lam always seems to come up short. She tends to "own" fourth place at US championships, which is what she is doing still on the JGP.

I agree that Radionova should score bettr than Titushkina, if she is on. Titushkina isn't just slow in the spins, she looks slow overall, but a very promising youngster. Because of her size, you forget how young she is.

[Mirunna]

Really liked Hwi CHOI, lovely skater. Ashley was underscored in PCS, especially compared to the other skaters. She is in a different league IMO

[oleada]

Disappointing score from Lam. Only 48.40, with a -1.00 deduction.

[Mirunna]

Disappointing score from Lam. Only 48.40, with a -1.00 deduction.

That is not so bad. She is currently in third place and I don't see anyone beside Radionova(and maybe the Japanese girl) outscore her. She can still medal

[AlexRus]

Disappointing score from Lam. Only 48.40, with a -1.00 deduction.

This deduction is a hope.
It indicates that so low score is because a fall, not a low level.
So nothing is solved, Free Skate will give final solution.

[dorispulaski]

Current scores. Lam has lower PCS than Cain, but higher than Titushkina. It was probably a fall. Lam does not have the greatest head ever for competition.

Lam can definitely still medal, but I'm sure she didn't want to start her competition this way. And it will be at least 5pt she will have to make up to catch up to at least Titushkina, who does have higher technical content.

That said, Lam does have a great LP this year. I really enjoyed the clip from Glacier Falls.
