And if S/B were scored at about 120 and Y/J had a couple errors they could be lower then 120!

Very nice elegant skate, they fist pump. Should be enough for repeat - sad, they won't be at Worlds...

Gorgeous skate from Y/J!
To me, they are the champions and skated like a true pair. Some great moments in that program! I really like them a lot

Well, Yu/Jin will clearly win after that performance. :) Much better way to end their season than their Universiade LP. Congrats to them.

Wow, what a beautiful and touching performance by Yu/Jin. I guess they're going to be the two time junior World champ.

Yes! Glad that Yu/Jin skated clean. It is sad they won't be at Worlds, but they will have more chances in future.

The PCS difference should have been higher, IMO.
S/B have great elements but are not yet "there" in terms of skating like a two pair.
Anyway, congrats to the medalists!

Program of Yu/Jin is simply different level. She has pretty consistent SBS jumps, they do beautiful throws and pairs element plus theit level of interpretation and skating is, at least IMO, far ahead everybody skating at this event. Not that other pairs are bad, they are also very good(especially S/B) but this is just something more.

AND Y/J's score does explain why S/B were not marked higher. Closer then expected.

True, they are not, but for me, Yu/Jin aren't really either. Still, they were definitely the best today, congratulations!

Yes it was amazing from them. For such a short time, they are improving extremely fast and I especially like that they seem to connect in a natural way very well one with another. I get instantly good vibes when watching them

Interview with Yu/Jin. Jin says:

- He cherishes the Second World Junior title as a perfect conclusion to their junior career
- It's their third time competing in Estonia: He loves it here, because every time they skated was better than the last
- Their future plans: Going to WC in Shanghai to study the strength of older competitors, to improve on their weaknesses
- Next season: they will do more all elements more perfectly
- They will stay a few more days in Estonia. What they want to see: Last time, they saw big ship, and want to see it again since they didn't get enough of a look the first time. They will cheer on the other competitors, both Chinese and foreign.

Yang Jin comes across as articulate and thoughtful, and gives detailed answers. :)

Yu&JIn deserved a much larger lead on PCS, their expression and togetherness was in a league of their own here. Lovely program too.
