2018 Russian Junior Nationals Ladies SP

[Grin]

Only if Konstatinova, the "most overscored" russian skater in its history doesn't get huge advantage I predict a 76-78 SP score.

She must handle the pressure first.

Gubanova is the back up, she is senior eligible next year

And they overscore Gubanova, as for me, she is not better than Eteri's girls. Slow skating and simple elements.

I don’t think the score for Gubanchick is ultra there. She may not have so many difficult transitions but her ss and postures are amazing.

her last spin travelled alot at the end but how come its such a huge drop of her scores ? 0 GOEs ?

She could get ! from Lakernik

I compared her score with the JGPF protocol. If it were 0 GOE that would be the culprit. However I think there is more to it, as domestic competitions should not be that harsh with GOE.

who coaches Cherpakova ??? where is she from ???

Cherpakova - StPetersburg, coach Tataurov.

Yes, I think her scores are just right. She has ugly toe pick jumps but otherwise a high quality skate.

Ugh, Konstantinova. I don't mean to wax dramatic about Stasya - there's nothing wrong with her per se - but, and I'm totally prepared to get a bit of hate for this from somewhere, I really don't think she should be here.

Konstantinova always plays the party spoiler
I agree, she should be in seniors not obstructing some little girls competing for a juniors world spot.

really? Kostornaia has never achieved StSq4 in her SP before. On the contrary, Tarakanova shall have all her elements in level 4

I mean the girl who was shown for a few minutes before the warm-up.

I’m not sure about Kostornaya today but Tarakanova didn’t get level 4 cause there was a stumble in her step sequence.

Shcherbakova getting lvl 3 step sequence? Good news! The steps looked much cleaner here than at Moscow Cup so it's nice to see that getting recognized. Hopefully she's able to get them properly in order soon. And skates a clean FS here...

 

[starla16]

never realise Kanysheva is so slow.

 

[lavenderblossom]

TAT coming through!

Alyona Kanisheva clean, 67.94
