Could it be deliberate to prevent in-sight bloodbath as many here expected? Overlutzing may lead to traumas.
Bloodbath posponed to senior nationals...

Bloodbath posponed to senior nationals...![]()
I didn't find anything in the official rules that would fully explain this situation. According to the rules, she can compete both at MS and at CMS levels.
I had to search for unofficial information (an insider) - the RusFed opposes participation in the one Cup competition more than 2 representatives from one sport school. The decision which of the three A should send to CMS level was made without presence of this insider. Perhaps the choice fell on Anna just because she's already participated in the Cup at MS level.

JGP Final will be skated before senior nationals.
Sad to hear the 3xA competition is postponed to JGP
Can you do a 3A SP in both levels? Or is it like junior/senior with the ladies?
If not, then they might just be giving Alena more chance to compete it.
Hmmm, that's a bit disappointing.. maybe there was not enough spot or something.. or they don't want Anna to compete against Trusova before JGPF, who knows..
Content of junior ladies short program for 2018-2019:
a) Double Axel Paulsen;
b) Double or triple Flip jump;
c) Jump combination consisting of two double jumps or one double and one triple jump or two triple jumps;
d) Flying camel spin;
e) Layback / sideways leaning spin or sit spin without change of foot;
f) Spin combination with only one change of foot;
g) Step sequence fully utilizing the ice surface.
(junior men are allowed to do 3A in sort, btw)
Yes. it's like junior/seniorOr is it like junior/senior with the ladies?
Yes. it's like junior/senior
MS name for seniors. - qualification to Senior Nationals
CMS name for juniors. - qualification to Junior Nationals.
no. she have already qualified for both Senior and Junior Nationals.In that case does that mean that Anna is still unqualified for Senior Nationals given that she participated only in one MS competition of required two? 0_0

It's not really convincing explanation considering how many there were cases of 3 or more Panova's (Snow Leopards school) skaters participating in one comp - as far as I remember at least.
1. but there is no such rule at all(in documents both of RusFed and Ministry of Sport), RusFed just tries to prevent it
2. did Panova' girls had 100% chances to sweep the podium?
3. the source is very-very close to Sambo-70
4. this is the only answer I've been able to get


Main reason is most likely this
