What about Sofia Vazhnova's program
(I like her!)? :pray:

Thanks for vids puremagic, but could do sth with that music quality? It's barely audible. :ohwell:

Unfortunately this broadcast seems to have had absolutely horrible audio. But about 21 minutes and 30 seconds would be a good spot to start.

Overall this competition was rather weak but I liked Vazhnova as well. Seems to have some promise with her skating and the state of her jumps is probably alright as a 9-year-old. And the best thing is she brakes to a stop fast.
 
Puremagic, could you correct Anna's name to Shcherbakova? :pray:
The pronunciation of "Sherbakova" is completely different and incorrect, thanks in advance. :agree:


Hey people, who's you fave discovery since establishing the thread month ago? :)
Mine: Uliana Vasilieva. :love::drama:

I noticed she has this child hyper quickness in some of her "short" instinctual moves (don't know how it's called in English) as 8-9yo Shcherbakova and Valieva. Like when they move their heads around just like small birds - in a blink of an eye. :laugh:
I think it's good indicator of future physical capability (speed, agility).

I'll nominate the 12-year-old Ksenia Chistyakova just for her jump technique and correct edges on the jumps. Of course, score's not that high and as a 12-year-old she really should be in junior category already instead of novice - But it's so rare to have a girl with very clearly correct lutz and flip edges and to jump them both like this. And with this technique. Ah, and the last spin also was interesting.

As an alternative, you can write Schtscherbakowa. :biggrin:

During his visit in Russia, Lewis Carroll took pleasure in collecting the trickiest Russian words to pronounce and transcribing them into English. One of his favorites was “Zashtsheeshtschayjushtsheekhsya” – a declined form of a word for people who protect themselves.

In that German manner, the word "защищающихся" would become "zaschtscheeschtschayjuschtscheekhsya".
 
Vazhnova with weaker LP, still visible talent, but very hesitant skate.
Other girls you guys mentioned have some nice jumps, but speed of skating is mediocre and they're telegraphing much.
Overall, I agree with Shayuki, average level tourney.

Most girls seem to struggle at this competition so yeah she had a couple errors but my sound isn't working and she's a skater that I can watch even without my sound and not get bored with. Probably not able to be a four or five star because of lack of 3-3 but I am very impressed :)
