As I said, so talented, just nervous. She would have never made it in Russia, so I'm happy she found a way to represent a different country.
(Maybe I'm getting her confused here, but I think she had a stable 4S before she had a stable 3Lz and 3F, so makes sense to not repeat those two jumps)
 
I am never following junior championship that much but... has the jumps difficulty this high all this time? 4S and 3A a lot here and there, more than senior for sure. I am so extremely surprised.
It's been like this the last 7-8 years or so... It's actually easier for junior women skaters to land those difficult jumps with their pre-pubescent body. The question is always whether they can keep those jumps as they get older and go through puberty, and whether they can stay relatively healthy.
 
Well, with all these reviewes, now we just have Djumaniyazova, Shifrin, Goidina and Gurgenidze in the running.
 
Brandenburg is fun. Did she recently have a growth spurt? This is common where girls get tall and skinny and have wobbly landings, then after a couple years they grow into it and become stable. Frolova prime example. Pretty clean skate though I am happy for her.
