Watching JGP Budapest yesterday reminded me that I hadn't actually watched JGP Linz, so here are Jia's SP and FP from Linz.

i'm not entirely sure if the GPF was the first time i've seen her skate but i was BLOWN away!!! she is the whole package. it's going to be so fun to watch her compete with Mao over the next few seasons, i'm hoping for a good friendly rivalry.

Congratulations to Jia Shin on winning Korean Nationals for the second year in a row with a wonderful performance in the freeksate. I actually haven't been able to find a video of her SP yet. She skated fast, smooth and gracefully with beautiful positions and expression and fine rotation and flow through her jumps with erect posture and some lovely transitions. The triple lutz triple toe close to the boards was was beautiful with picturesque air position and the transition from the sit spin into the cross grab Biellmann and the final pose was fluid and beautiful too. Its the best performance I have ever seen her give. I wish Jia the best at Junior Worlds. She skated so well I didn't even realize she was a Junior.
I found these excellent 4k videos of Jia Shin's wonderful SP and LP

Jia Shin's freeskate at Junior Worlds was so engaging emotionally with her great skating skills, fluid speed and massive rink coverage right up to the edge of the boards that really brings the audience into her performances. She also has quick, multi-directional turns, lovely and challenging transitions and picturesque air positions through her lofty jumps with highly artistic extensions and expression super attuned to the mood of the music.
