IIRC Satoko Miyahara had the highest technical score amongst the Japanese ladies at the most recent nationals. She's only 16 but seems to have a good handle on the jump techniques. May I humbly submit her name for consideration?
Doesn't she have a lot of issues with URs though?

It's interesting because Mao has the same issues with URs but can do the 3A. I guess it matters whether the < is from bad technique or nerves during competition.

At 3:30!!! Plenty of height for a 3a IMO or at least the technique is there to improve upon. Just a bit more step up and she is home free
hmmmm difficult....
1. Tuktamysheva. I heard Mirai is landing some as well, but I don´t know how it will work. Based on power shown on double axel, I would say Gracie and So Youn should give it a try.

Absolutely fantastic, love the flow she got out of it, weren't there rumours she would try to train a 4T though?
I would have said Gracie for the triple axle a year ago, but in her last few competitions, her double began to fail. Did anyone see anything at SOI to indicate that it's back in form?
Poor Adelina, she is a powerful jumper. Her consistency is still in question but I expect from her the 3A and even the 4T so all the hatters would shut up.I feel bad for people who watch videos of skaters they don't like, dislike the video, then insert lame comment. It's kind of a sad way to spend time. She is not my favorite skater by any stretch but that gala is a heartfelt effort and I have nothing but respect for it. :yay:
