2016 JGP Germany Pairs FS

[tulosai]

That was just fantastic! These two capture the spirit of the music so incredibly, I just love watching them! Definitely my favorite junior pair this season so far!

Love the height on the throws!

good job Ossetian boy, they dont look kinda fake in kiss n cry this time...
maybe he will popularize skating in the caucasus and maybe many will not consider it as gayish now compared to judo, wrestling, boxing etc.

 

[cathlen]

So, apart from top 3 in here, who else qualified to JGPF?

EDIT: I see that Boikova/Kozlovski, Atakhanova/Spiridonov and Borisova/Sopot all have 22 points and all have qualified to JGPF. So this time only Czechs breaks Russian domination.

It's a shame Australians placed only 8th in their first event, but that's life I guess.

What the nonsense are you talking about? Ossetians like Georgians, Russians, Greeks, Armenians profess the Orthodox religion. Sports like "judo, wrestling, boxing" - it's Chechens, Dagestani, Azerbaijanians who profess Islam. So, Mirzoev like another Ossetians not one of them. Stop saying this nonsense and mention his nation every time.

A pretty decent pairs free skate.

Very impressive from M/M to get their second victory of the JGP. He is a very good performer. Apart from the messy landing on the 3 jump combo everything was clean. I expected a slightly higher score but from looking at the protocols they had a L3 DS and were dinged on the PCOSp. D/B are not quite at their best but when they are this programme will score big, there is real finish and polish to the way they skate.

U/V had another strong skate but some errors held them back to give them 4th in the free but 3rd overall. I like the fact that both their programmes are very different style. Short is strong and powerful with a nice lyrical long. I thought they might have struggled to qualify for the JGPF with the draw but I didn't have to worry. B/K have made a very good debut on the JGP. For a couple who are together a short time they have made huge progress, they have a lot of potential. I like their short but I think they are lost in the free programme music.

I'm looking forward to the JGPF. 5 Russian teams against the Czechs. The top 3 for me would be M/M, A/S and D/B, I wouldn't write off the Czechs from winning it though. Whoever wins I hope everyone skates well.

sorry karne.

Not even just Junior Worlds. Katia and Harley made the 4CCs and Worlds TES minimums at Finlandia!

I wonder how they will approach this. Asking them to do Four Continents, Junior Worlds and Worlds is a big ask.

 

[icedinn]

I'm just happy Boikova/ Kozlovskii made it. Yay for their first time! :yes2:

I don't know any Pairs team doing that, but Deniss Vassiljevs last season has done: Europeans, Youth Olympics, Junior Worlds and Senior Worlds, so it's doable Of course, as long as both of them are perfectly healthy, I guess senior experience wouldn't hurt. Elizabet Tursynbaeva has also done 4CC (or last season YOG), Junior Worlds, Senior Worlds schedule and she's quite fine. Does Katia have any chances to get citizenship before Olympics? I know Anna/Duskova/Martin Bidar are doing Europeans this season to get experience before Olympic season.

Does Katia have any chances to get citizenship before Olympics?

This is something that has been worrying me.

I don't know how much of it is true, and how much of it is the media exaggerating. But for years we have been hearing stories about how strict the Australian immigration system is.

Before I say it, can I make clear that this is not a criticism of Katia. After all, she is still a young girl.

But, the fact that her English is not very good yet does concern me. I am worried that the immigration people could hold it against her.

I hope not. English is supposed to be a very difficult language for foreigners to learn, because it borrows from so many other languages. And, it is generally accepted that it takes teenagers longer to pick up languages than it does younger children.

My concerns may be totally unfounded. But, I still worry that it could be an issue.
