Now I watched the videos. There was no super baby skater in this competition. Their level are so close as we can see from scores.
Satoko deserved the first place in the short program. Her skating reminds me of Akiko Suzuki! Everything looks great but if she makes her jumps a bit higher, they will look better. Also the waltzy program is a bit boring for little girls.
Park also did a good job but did she plan to do 3S+3T? Or doesn't she have any other triples instead of salchow. I think that may not be enough for her to medal in the free skate.
Gerasimova had the best presentation for me, and the judges agreed so. She didn't put 3T+3T to her short program, maybe we will see in free. She is not a superstar but she looks promising, right? But for the Russian standards, it may not be enough to qualify for national teams.
US girls couldn't skate as they were expected to. Courtney is really bad in the presentation way, and her jumps weren't on. Only the spins were nice. Kiri Baga looks appropriate for pairs. She is talented but can't do harder jumps I suppose. Angela was going for the 3+3 maybe, but it didn't come out. Angela looks like the best one but her score is worst, let's see what happens in the free skate tonight.
