2019 Junior Worlds Ladies Short Program

[jillredhand]

Just when I was relieved Haein isn't skating in the first group tomorrow, Yuhana's SP curse strikes again... PS how does the tech box know a failed jump is +COMBO when the skater hasn't performed their other non-axel jump yet??

Because the required solo jump in juniors is the flip, and the axel has to be solo too. So if you miss the non-flip, non-axel jump, you don't get any other chance to tag a combo on.

Yuhana has the most amazing jumps. They are huge. I am so sorry she fell on the combo... if she hadn’t she would have a great TES score.

Shame about the fall and missed combo, but right now I just want to riot about the criminally low GOE for Yuhana's double axel. 0.99, seriously? That was worth +4 across the board!

Her 2A was the best so far... how did it get such low GOE? Seriously...

Juniors have to do a solo flip

 

[skylark]

Because juniors have to jump a solo flip. They can't put the combo on that jump.

Can anyone tell me why?

I really loved that Lion King program from Yokoi. Very spirited; so sad about no combo.

IF the ISU ever banned Spanish programs for a year a lot of choreographers would be totally puzzled as to what routines to give to their skaters.

 

[ancientpeas]

She had a beautiful back bend in that final spin. Reminded me of Yulia.

 

[Danny T]

Woahh such a cool haircutter to Biellmann :eeking:

 

[cheerknithanson]

That 2A deserved a higher GOE IMO.

It's just the requirement for the year. Last year juniors had to do a solo lutz in the short program.

I love Anastasiia's dress, so simple and elegant. Also ****** that layback spin!

 

[Baron Vladimir]

3Lz, 3T and 3F all looked UR

 

[Ichatdelune]

She has nice spins, I would have enjoyed her more if I wasn't so nervous right now... shame about the stepout

I think the solo jump changes every year. Last year it was lutz. I think it's in order to make sure juniors spend time to develop and train the jumps correctly. So, no way of avoiding a flip in the SP, if you have an edge problem, it encourages them to learn it correctly to avoid calls. Or at least that's what I guess the reason is.

Anastasia. Good program. :thumbsup:

 

[Noxchild]

Ahead of Yuhana by 0.01...

Go Young!!

 

[flanker]

Such a low score for Anastasia...

It's just a requirement of Junior SPs that isn't present in the Seniors. Each year, a double or triple flip, lutz, or loop is the required solo jump in the junior SP, the idea being to force juniors to have to learn and perfect all the types of jump, instead of relying on the "easier" toe loop/salchows too much.

No combo... why does this have to happen...

Because we wished on the monkey's paw for the junior men to have good SPs. Cursed!
