Nebelhorn Trophy 2013: Sep 25-28 [Oberstdorf, Germany] - Olympic Qualifying Event

Will Isadora go to Sochi?

She is 6th. Elene still has to skate.

Isadora goes to Sochi. Estonia already has a spot so skip over Glebova who wasn't seeking qualification. As long as Elene G totals up over the Lithuanian lady, Georgia gets the last spot.

ETA: If my math is right, Elene needs a FS of over 76.60. She should be able to easily get that.

Who are you thinking of?

Jenni Saarinen and Liubov Efimenko

 

[MalloryArcher]

Lyydia Määttänen, she was born 1998 so she'll be 16 next year. (Unlucky today in JGP )

Ah, but to my mind the biggest upcoming talent for Finland is Liubov Efrimenko

 

[mateusp1]

Thank you so much for the attention.

Yes, I agree, but she and also Jenni Saarinen were born in 1999 - are they age eligible for seniors next season (2014/15)? I'm always messed up with these age things because they are different in GP and EC/WC.

Edit: I checked this year GP and noticed that Radionova is there - she was born on 1999. So she and also Saarinen and Efimenko will be old enough for seniors next season. Yay! Feel sorry for Finland now but the truth is that we don't have any special skater this season except Kiira. And when she is injured I think we don't earn the spot. It's sad but it's fair.

Isadora Williams? She qualified...

I think this is Norway's first Olympic appearance in figure skating since 1992. Wow.

No, since 1964. So some Norwegian lady will be the first in 50 years I'm super happy! Well done Anne Line

Ah, I was counting Jan Erik Digernes, even though he withdrew. He qualified, after all.

 

[MalloryArcher]

For Liubov and Jenni, I think it depends on when in the year they were born. Early 1999 is ok, late 1999 they need to wait until 2015/2016.

Shame about the fall. She's got great flow across the ice, quite elegant skater

Score: 51.51+54.01-1=104.52 (PB), 162.39 (PB), in 1st (out of 31)

 

[prettykeys]

Ashley Cain has a gorgeous style, really light and refined. Where did she learn those skating skills, too? So smooth across the ice.

 

[Banjoman]

Excuse my ignorance, but is Cain a contender for the third USA ladies' spot?

 

[AnnaTheMusician]

For Liubov and Jenni, I think it depends on when in the year they were born. Early 1999 is ok, late 1999 they need to wait until 2015/2016.

They were born in June and in March so they can compete in seniors. Good! The field is getting stronger again. Remember those years when there were Susanna, Jenni, Laura and Kiira fighting for 3 EC spots...:yay:

 

[snowflake]

Ah, I was counting Jan Erik Digernes, even though he withdrew. He qualified, after all.

Alll right, credit to him :thumbsup:

 

[HR4]

Strange, I am so confused. Eurosport shows smth strange. The stream I used earlier also does ot show figure skating. The youtube link is not working from Germany. Does anyone has a link for a working stream??? Thx

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Excuse my ignorance, but is Cain a contender for the third USA ladies' spot?

Sure, she's flying under radar right now but if she podiums at US Nationals, she'd be considered. However, she's got stiff competition to get past.

 

[drivingmissdaisy]

Excuse my ignorance, but is Cain a contender for the third USA ladies' spot?

For me, no. She has to beat Mirai, Courtney, Agnes, and Christina to get the spot.
