Oh...Oda, but there's still FS. Since only the top 6 will be able to advance to Nationals, it's going to be a fight.

Live result

 

[cohkaix]

Now onto Jr. women's SP

Ikura, Mao, Kinayu, and Reina in the same group...

 

[tsuyoboogie]

Oh no!! Oda is in 6th place. I’m going to be nervous for his free skate.

After Haruya Sasaki he's in 7th
However, his FS BV is far above most of the guys except for maybe Sena
As long as he executes most of his planned jumps relatively well he should make top 6 no problem

That being said there's more than a few guys worthy of competing at Nats that's not going to qualify

She was really tilted on both 3F and 3Lz
Axis in the 2A was okay but I think she was nervy by that time which caused her to rush, possibly underrotate and 2ft the landing
I don't think she's going to make the FS...

I think it doesn't hurt...just as a practice competition (we would be worrying more if she WD...)

Still kinda bummed about Kaoruko withdrawing from her only JGP spot. She's been consistent so far. The fight for 3rd at junior nationals is going to be close. Maybe even 2nd??
