Ugozhaev doesn't have his tech minimums according to the ISU list. There's still a little time for him to go get them, but not much.Yeah, nobody could figure out why Sarnovsky popped two lutzes when he'd never popped a lutz before, including Kirill himself. But attaching -Eu-3S to a 1Lz is not something you see often. Good presence of mind.
People are discussing if there is any point in sending 15-year-old Ugozhaev with one unsuccessful quad attempt and a bit of an UR problem to Junior Worlds, but I hope we won't now have reskates for Jr Worlds too, those poor boys' nerves are not made of steel. There is the issue of Lutfullin of course, and who will stay at home if he's selected. By placements it should be Kovalev, but he needs this competition for turning senior.

There are 10 days between the end of RCF (and juniors usually skate last) and start of JWC. How will any of the guys have a meaningful preparation for JWC when they are forced to peak two weeks earlier?
