Day 1 (10/17)
Women's group 1 (Tukt, Radionova, Elene G, Helgesson, Mae Berenice)
Missed most of this group (was on the people mugger)
Tukt looked a little rough. Landed some jumps (rough landings), popped some jumps. Spins looked decent.
Radionova looked good. 3/3, 3/3/2 combos landed. I did see her fall on one triple but overall I was very impressed by her. She was by far the winner of this group. Spins look great and she has nice speed over the ice. Only thing that bugs me are her shoulders! She's a star for sure if she survives puberty.
Elene G didn't really pay attention but she did land some nice triples! She was hit and miss.
Helgesson was by far the loser of the day. She was a complete miss. Every time I looked her way she was falling (and hard) on some jump. Didn't look good at all.
Mae Berenice landed some nice jumps one being a 3/3. Her jumps are big and she did miss some but hit some as well.
Group 2 (Asada, Wagner, Zhang, Cesario, Marchei)
Asada and Marchei were no shows.
Wagner by far the winner of group 2. Went for 3/3 but was a little 2footed/underrotated. Her other jumps look great. She did a run thru of her SP. Here's a twitter post on her jumps
Lynn Rutherford @LynnRutherford
SKAM: Good SP Crazy Diamond run-thru from AWagner - 3flip/3toe, 3loop out of steps + edgy, interesting choreo from @shaelynnbourne #SA2013
Cesario did a run thru of her LP. Love her spread eagles in this program.

SKAM: @SammiCesario left jumps out of practice run-thru but plenty of Carmenitude; love the stab-spread eagle-leap ending. #SA2013
Zhang fell/popped a lot like Victoria. She didn't look competition ready. She did a run thru of her LP and skipped some jumps.
