2022 Junior World Championships: Women's Short Program

[Seven Sisters]

Random thought while watching the lovely Jia Shin—

Know who would be fabulous doing La Boheme? Mikhail Kolyada.

I miss Minchae and Chaeyeon.

Minchae I'm not so sure (her back still seems to be an issue), but Chaeyeon would've done lovely as well. I wanted Jia, Ahsun, Chaeyeon for the JW team but KSU goes by Nats results alone so

Wow Nina, what is this, Belgian Skating Renaissance? They have Loena AND such a promising girl!

Another really nice skate

SP: 36.68+26.99 = 63.67, 3/37

That was cool too, despite the saccharine music.

 

[TT_Fin]

3rd?

 

[elektra blue]

Her surname pronunciation is being quite challenging for the commentator

it's Ted we're talking about is it the water wet?

 

[balabam]

I think like other 42

 

[EdgeCall]

Not so bad either.

Maybe Loena has a little bit of a Yuna Kim effect on Belgium?

I fear Rion is either stressed or injured, her jumps have been off ever since Nationals

My thoughts watching her at CdP
Rion is often injured by the end of the season
The years she competed at JGP events she didn't make it to or past Jr Nats

This is a pattern I've seen recently with Okajima's skaters
Wakaba and Rion have been tenacious and fortunate enough to have recovered from injuries and return year after year
Other extremely promising students of his were not so lucky
Some fans don't like Mao Shimada being with Hamada but had she stayed at Jingu she might not even be skating right now

This was also my concern the moment I realized Okajima was part of Kao Miura's new coaching team...
Sorry, to be off thread topic

I'm about to throw up help

 

[bartlebooth]

The speaker in the arena is nailing "Pinzarrone", instead

 

[lariko]

And that’s why I love juniors, lots of unexpected results!

 

[elektra blue]

I'm about to throw up help

don't throw up because of nerves! do it because of alcohol!

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

NIINA! I'm up in the air for adopting her so I hope she can have a great skate here!

 

[balabam]

it's Ted we're talking about is it the water wet?

I would use: Is it this seventh glass of wine good?

 

[anonymoose_au]

Aww Vivien's not going to make it. I am saddened.

 

[elektra blue]

I would use: Is it this seventh glass of wine good?

after the 7nth glass it doesn't even matter anymore

Good thing that Loena got two spots for Belgium.

 

[lariko]

Did she UR? I don’t remember any obvious mistakes in Papp’s skate.
