2025 World Junior Championships Women's FS

[EdgeCall]

Again decent flow, but again skated through the music. Looked a bit overrehearsed.

I love Wang’s ending pose. I think this is her weakest free skate of the season. She definitely needs to work on the second mark. She skated right through the music. Hopefully that will come in the next few years.

That was the worst skate from Yihan. I didn’t expect a fall in the 3F

I don’t care that she is ice cold. I look at the skating… and her spins and jumps (for the most part, are solid).

China needs the two spots more than Australia. Shuxian is praying

Jia next up. Redemption skate? Hoping so.

she missed it
China Nationals will be a bloodbath next season

Hana is in the top 10 2 spots for aussie next year

Oh dear, probably the worst skate I've seen of Yihan this season. Hopefully, she will still take all of the positives from everything she achieved even if Jr Worlds was not a good competition this time around. (Also, bye-bye to my predictions, I think?)

 

[lariko]

And just as i thought Shin might skate clean, down she went. Still, with massive PCSs, the delicate connection to the music and yada-yada-yada, we are looking at the podium performance here.

 

[elektra blue]

damn fall! but this was still beautiful to watch!

 

[Jeanie19]

Jia. Beautiful dress. Beautiful program and a beautiful skate.

 

[lariko]

There you go, 'delicate' was deployed.

 

[YuBluByMe]

Shin Jia does generically lovely very well, but she really needs to change it up. Her programs are starting to feel copy and paste at this point. Great skating skills and jumps, but something is missing.

 

[yelyoh]

Pity about the fall but otherwise quite strong and sublime. PCS will lift her higher. Podium? Depends on the others.

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Oh, this free program is gorgeous from Jia - so much better than the one she debuted in the fall. I hope she keeps it for next season.

Jia Shin!!
Amazing

The 3Lz 3T fall… (again)
Her only mistake, but, costly since it was also a mistake in the SP.

I don’t think she will defend her silver medal this year

Why have her continue to backload a 3Lz+3T combo when she's been inconsistent the whole season and already fell on it in the Short? Still one of her better skates (at least internationally), even if it wasn't flawless. She's such a beautiful skater and I really just want her to get back some stability before next season.

 

[RatedPG]

Will Japan sweep the podium?

 

[lariko]

@Mathematician are you looking at local real estate listings? With Delicate here getting 6 points lead, Gurgenidze is not going to medal.

 

[lileychristie]

Gutsy for Jia to still do her 3Lz3T in the second half after her fall in the SP, but it ended with the same result

And Jia, can you please please be brave with your program & choreographer choices next season? Kaitlyn Weaver, Lori Nichol, heck even Benoit might be good for her. Please Jia, you're so much more than generically pretty programs

Her quality is so great that she still takes the lead despite the fall. I hope she gets a good rest in the off-season, give herself enough time to adjust with the new coaching team and debut strong in senior next season
