Wakaba did quite well considering she was coming back not fully healed. I think the JSF didn’t assign her to any other competitions to let her fully heal for the next season. I hope Wakaba for all the best!
Wakaba will be fine. If she had totally bombed her two programs i would be worried. But she did well considering she stills injured.
yes it is true, she can be proud, I may be worried too much. Satoko has returned well after a year of fighting his injury, so Wakaba can also come back strong. She still has a lot of things to show us in the future, as I said in her fan wire, I loved her SP so we see she took pleasure it's programs that when they are perfectly weathered him well.
And are not relying upon prepubescent youngsters like Russia
Japan is looking good Rika, Miyahara, Kaori, Wakaba and Hongo, Marin, Miahara et al They have great depth. And are not relying upon prepubescent youngsters like Russia or skaters more vulnerable to body changes. I mean look at Russia Lipnskaya, Radionova, Sotnikova, Evgenia, Pogo, Tsurskaya and now Alina.
Wakaba was dealing with that foot problem all season. If that heals ok then she will be fine. Wakaba is a year younger than Kaori and probably the most all around talented of the Japanese. Like all Japanese she will need to get her triple axel going to go against Rika.I saw that some performances of these nationals, it is a surprising results but Kaori deserved its victory, Rika K fought well and Satoko was splendid , despite the errors, a pity that Mai and Wakaba missed the podium finally especially for Mai who misses it but I'm happy to see her again in two months for 4CC. It's surprising that the JFS is asking Yuna S to take the place JW I hope she's fine with her programs are great, unfortunately they had to sacrifice Nana which is a shame.
Rika H has made a good comeback now that she has to change coach I hope to see her more often, as well as Marin.
Congratulations to AYAKA who made us a nice surprise with her magnificent 3 A hoping to see her in future competitions.
The one I'm worried about most is for the future of Wakaba I know she did not recover from her injury but it's going to be twice that she misses the podium, she who was so promising he a few years ago, I'm afraid of not seeing her again, I hope I'm wrong and it's not the end of her career, but congratulations for taking the 5th place she did a very beautiful court and I love his smile.
Wakaba’s free at Worlds isn’t just my highlight of the year — it’s one of the single best skates of all time for me. (And is a great recruitment vehicle for new fans, incidentally. I’ve shown it to people who don’t know much about figure skating and Wakaba is a fantastic gateway drug.)
