2024 JGP Wuxi Women's SP

Go Sophie !!

I dream for someone to skate to Julia Ducourneau's Raw soundtrack

I always wanted Yuzu or Shoma to use Tokyo Ghoul (the artist even drew both of them in the manga style) but alas...

 

[DemTuppesSeine]

Oooh she missed the combo. This is not going well.

I knew I knew that voice! It's "Million To One" by Camila Cabello.

Watched the film it's from a few months ago, and I have kinda blanked it out of my mind! It was not great!

Good to see Harshita RAWTANI (IND) again. Although she's been seen in competitions in Asia in the past few years, this is her first Junior GP since before the pandemic.

I always love seeing the skaters from India. You can always tell that they are there because they love skating so much. And you can see this in Harshita.

She goes into 26th position.

Uhoh are her first two jumps invalid

 

[Jumping_Bean]

And that's why it's not worth the risk to go for the 3A+3T in the Short - Way too easy to lose the combo completely.

(Ignore the two invalid elements, that will be corrected to a 3A+COMBO with -5 GOE and a valid 2A)

 

[TallyT]

Give her points for Eurythmics, and for a good cut!

 

[skim1001]

the quick turn around and the added pressure got to her it seems but she has great potential. I'm looking forward to see her develop.

Sophie! you must have a plan b if the 3A 3T doesn't work

 

[yelyoh]

Mia Kalin was ripped off. Sorry but this was a bad decision.

 

[Vemvane]

Lots of attack and sass at the start of Sophie's skate. Huge 3A, but missing the combo on it looks technically costly, as it has invalidated the 2A. Presumably that will be corrected by the technical panel? Great flexibility and centering in her spins, and I appreciate that she remained committed to the choreography to the end despite the difficulties with the axel and the flip.

 

[Jeanie19]

Sophie. Pretty dress. Shame about the 3A combo is so hard. She never gave up. . back to back competitions are so difficult.

 

[Idiote]

Oh no, this did not go well This dumb no 3A rule fur juniors needs to freaking go. Even if she can't reach the final, she can still have a redemption free skate <3

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Sophie! you must have a plan b if the 3A 3T doesn't work

There's no plan B in Juniors. You have one shot at the combo, and that's it.

Unless you mean that she should go for a different combo when the 3A+3T isn't working in practise?

(Ignore the two invalid elements, that will be corrected to a 3A+COMBO with -5 GOE and a valid 2A)

Oh phew! That would have been devastating!

But yeah probably not a good idea to do back to back GPs in such different time zones.

 

[TallyT]

Sophie! you must have a plan b if the 3A 3T doesn't work

I think the short time to prepare, all the travel and the extra pressure by being flung in with the expectation from her win just... was too much. Hopefully a good redemption skate in the free.

 

[Idiote]

Go Inga !!

 

[labgoat]

I would like to see her not rush through the choreography. All the travel caught up with her.
Well some lessons are hard.

Tango Time! aka Figure Skating in a nutshell

Oh phew! That would have been devastating!

But yeah probably not a good idea to do back to back GPs in such different time zones.

Certainly not as a last minute rush job. It was unfair to both Sophie and Mia to do that.
