2026 Junior World Championships | Women's Short Program

Maria Eliise started really well and after that combo she lost her focus. What a pity.

Maria. Pretty dress and pretty program. Shame about the falls. Please let her make it, or she won't skate on her birthday.

Just so you all know (and to maybe tempt @4everchan out of his slumber) Shin Amano is a very attractive man

^this is him from 1995 btw, but he has aged very well

when I saw this photo it was one of the biggest plot twists of my life, who would believe that this handsome face would become one of the most infamous tech callers in history? It was almost as shocking as seeing Terry Gannon's real face for the first time.

did you know he coached my Patrick briefly ?

Not a dream skate for the home town girl, Maria Eliise KALJUVERE (EST).

Scheherazade is another of my favourite warhorses

You jinxed her! You might have cost her the opportunity to do the Free Skate in her hometown on her birthday!

That was heartbreaking to watch.

And the shot during the replays of her team-mates when she fell.

She goes into 10th position.

She has a Q!!!!!

You're off the hook, @elektra blue

She made it!

Disclaimer: this is not a pity party response with fishing for compliments, negation or reassurance.
I just don't like my face. How I look in general, be it in the camera lense or my own bathroom mirror . But this is part of being at the competition that has cameras from all sides and I'm always behind with crafting, so I need to utilise all the time I have.

I understand that one doesn't like to go watch a show and to end up getting the attention on oneself instead.

You do an incredible job with your crowns (both quality- and time-wise, judging from today's progression) and I'm sure that every skater who gets one cherishes it dearly.

Second bad skate in a row. On one hand I am glad both for Mei and Maria Eliise that they qualified nevertheless, but on the other I feel pity for Hannah Frank of Austria that she is still first not qualified even after that.

Hana. Beautiful dress. Great skate.

 

[cocteautwin]

Hana looks stornger and stronger

 

[bartlebooth]

Hana did great!

 

[Seven Sisters]

Hana Bath has a ferocity so rare in the Womens’ field, and even rarer among the Junior Women. I heartily approve

 

[lileychristie]

Yayyyy my little roo Hana delivered

Her skating skills have improved so much since training in Japan, sooo excited to see her keep growing!

Hana BATH (AUS) wearing a black dress with a LOT of sparklies, and skating to the trailerised version of Destiny Child's "Survivor".

I don't like these trailerised songs, but I do like Hana and how she skated to it.

For those back home who have stayed up to see her, it was worth it!

She goes into 2nd position.

She and Makoto Nakata are very happy!
