Shame about the fall, because dialing back the difficulty had them on track to the only clean skate of the season. They look super fast & super solid lifts, just not consistent on the difficult elements (3Tw and 3Th) and prone to letting errors affect the rest of their skate. Good levels too.

Nice skating so far. Looks like I picked the right event to watch.

Of course there are errors: they're pairs and they're juniors, so they start with two strikes against them.

many of these teams are also new and unpolished, but you know what? the level already looks higher than last season

forza Polina e Gabriel!

the British navy sank them

Oh dear, that were quite a number of broadsides that went amiss. Will it be the gallows in the K&C?

It's cruel to reauire the BODS from the juniors.

Polina looks so tall now, I wonder how tall she actually is. At Italian Junior Nationals, she almost towered over Irina, who is 162 cm. Their levels weren't very high, and lots of negative GOE, but not a lot of big errors, just a bit of polish needed.

It's not required in the Free, and they certainly would have profited from doing a different death spiral. Same for the other Italian team.

Maybe they don't have time to train two different ones?

 

[elektra blue]

not their best outing

Team Japan:

Brown pants!
First throw she barely made it off the ice.
The combo/seqence was a huge point scorer!

Well, the 2FTh looked better than I've seen from them. I'd really like to see some substantial improvement in the twist and throw technique soon, because I'm starting to get worried. He's very strong, so really they should be capable of a higher twist and bigger throws.

Why must you hurt me so? How is it possible that they can skate clean(-ish) at every other competition but never manage to get it together at Jr Worlds?

Not bad. Shame about the fall, SBS jumps are just not their forte. Downgraded the tech content compared to what they attempted at prior competitions this season, but man, what a good triple twist.
