Maybe some people knew those three already, but I just wanted to cover them before 16 junior worlds.
I've been watching those three this season, and I think it can be interesting to compare their different aspects of strengths and weaknesses.
It would be great if you add some facts and opinion about them, on this thread.
1. Jun hwan Cha (Republic of Korea)
Birth date: 21.10.2001
He doesn't have his ISU bio yet, because he was in injury at the beginning of this season and showed bad skating at South Korean JGP qualifying events and finally couldn't participate JGP this year, unfortunately.
Now he's training at Toronto, Canada, and seems like coached by Brian Orser. (Don't know exactly, yet)
He seems like having recovery time, and looks fine at Autumn Classic International.
He has extra-good arm and head movements (it seems like he's doing ballet when he is on ice), but not that good at some jumping technics.
But now he's trying 3A, and he finally made its rotation at ACI.
Here's his recent performance at ACI. SP FS / Score: 65.48+132.96=198.44
2. Petr Gumennik (Russia)
Birth date: 11.04.2002
He participated two JGP events this season, Riga cup and Corpernicus stars.
He did such a good job at those two events and get really good results, which is 6th and 4th place each.
What a great results if we consider he's only 13. (And he has a lot of time to become 14!)
He seems like having real talent at jumping technics, and skating skills, but not that much expressions in his programs.
He also now working on 3A.
Here's his recent performance at Nice Cup 2015. SP FS / Score: 67.97+132.75=200.72
3. Koshiro Shimada (Japan)
Birth date: 11.09.2001
I don't know him much about, but he skates really well at JGP Croatia Cup.
He also participated Bratislava event, but he made his personal best at Croatia. (7th at Bratislava, 5th at Croatia)
He have really good skating skills and performances. He looks delicate and has remarkable expressiveness for his age.
But not that high jumping components he has in his programs, just for now.
I heard that he also working on 3A. (Is it right?)
Here's his recent performance at JGP Croatia Cup. SP FS / Score: 58.38+122.69=181.07
Hope he shows up more competitions before Jr.world. (Could we expect him to participate Jr. World!? Hope so..)
