2018 Junior World Championships Ladies SP

WOW!!!!!! Wow wow wow!!!! Who is this girl from Ukraine??? She’s great!!! Lots of potential if she gets a good coach. If this doesn’t get a high score it’s only because she’s from a smaller federation.

I'm on the ISU stream, but there is no Ted Burton?! :scratch:

Oh, sorry for confusion then - I've read in TV stream thread people being happy to hear Ted and assumed he's there.

 

[atsumiri]

we will see a 3Lz1Lo3S (rippon) and 2A3T (rippon)

Is that meant to sound impressive?

Just waking up - went back to watch You Young - not only lowballed in PCS but I have watched that combo 10 times I don’t see an UR... interesting :sarcasm:

All Juniors are lowballed on PCS. I would not have her PCS higher than Ting Cui or Yuhana Yokoi. They both have better basic skating skills than Young You. She is charming but I am not sure that she should get higher PCS

The face isnt the same as alena but her body, dress and style of movements is similar imo

Really? Alena is like ... Well, she makes Sasha Trusova look like a basketball player.

Agreed, the PCS order is correct. Actually I'd have Ting Cui with the highest PCS out of these especially considering the fall.

Sia :agree: Great skate by Leung :clapper:

 

[Bluediamonds09]

Booo on Arkhipova's PCS. She was so much better than the rest

Skaters shouldn’t receive lower pcs just because they’re from smaller federations!!!! I am livid about her pcs score!!!!

 

[Amer]

Leung!!! Wow!

 

[jillredhand]

I really liked Christy Leung. Good performer, beautiful on the ice.

Actually I was surprised that Ted misses out on worlds. I even wondered if he switched to CBC.

Come on Lea, allez le bleus!

Edit: Jinxed her.

Pretty sure that she was just listing the jump combos that Ting Cui will do in the long due to a previous poster's questions.. It is impossible to know the tone of postings so I don't think she was trying to make it "sound impressive".

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Ive never thought i will see someone skating to song Creep :hap36:

 

[Canadianskatingfan]

Is that meant to sound impressive?

For an american junior.... yes.

 

[Ares]

All these juniors ladies seem to skate to the same song on repeat, rinse ... repat. I know that these are different songs but they all blend into one in my head.

 

[coldblueeyes]

Sometimes I get the feeling that people feel even more attacked about 'their' juniors than the seniors. Less defensive action, more respect to all skaters and we're all good - no need to nitpick all commentary to explain your views.

 

[Bluediamonds09]

Like hearing Haley Reinhart.. But poor girl.

I think the 3Lz was under-rotated. Agree that she was lowballed in the PCS.

 

[EdgeCall]

Nice one from Lea, despite the fall. She's typically french, she has both the performance quality and the jump problems. High hopes for her.
