5th Russia Cup

FD

Sofia & Igor were 1st after SD but as one can see from the video they had one major error in FD.

 

[The Finn]

Shevchenko/Eremenko are only 6th after SD. It is a bit surprising that they are about 2.5 points behind Polishchuk/Vakhnov who are 3rd. Shevchenko/Eremenko are not going to make it at the Junior Worlds but they still might make it at the Youth Olympics but they need to beat Polishchuk/Vakhnov and Skoptcova/Aleshin. Skoptcova/Aleshin are less than 0.2 points behind them. Shpilevaya/Smirnov who are 2nd after SD looks like a pretty sure bet to be one of the team who will go to the Youth Olympics. They will probably go to the Junior Worlds also.

[The Finn]

I like their chances at JGP France. They can totally win this, even though Abachkina/Thauron probably have home team advantage. Anyway Sofia & Igor beat them last year and they can do it again. The U.S team is totally beatable also.

Some pics from the test skate event.

Any videos from the test skate?

 

[The Finn]

I haven't seen any videos from the test skate event.

 

[lauravvv]

Any videos from the test skate?

Junior test skates are closed. There could still be someone filming, but I don't remember getting any videos from the junior test skate in previous years. The top juniors take part in senior test skates, and that's where all the test skate videos of juniors have been from.

 

[Crossover]

I just saw their last season's programs as a reference to predict the French JGP result. Shevchenko impressed me a lot 'cause such a young girl at the 13 years old was capable of showing a great presence on the ice. Their coordination seemed to me sometime a bit off, but what a promising career they could build! I'm looking forward to their showing today.

NRW Trophy SD. They are 1st after SD.

NRW Trophy FD. They won but their score could have been better.

[The Finn]

I have always liked them but for some reason they always get somewhat low scores. Now their PCS was good, it was almost as good as what S/A and P/V got, but their TES was really low.

[The Finn]

Sofia & Igor were originally assigned to JGP Austria but it has been changed to JGP Latvia.

Ushakova/Nekrasov is now been assigned to JGP Austria and Kuts/Mikhailov is the team who lost their spot to Sofia & Igor at JGP Latvia.

 

[The Finn]

Wow, they won!! And they beat S/S. Didn't see that one coming. They do look better than last season but beating S/S, I don't know about that. In any case this was their 1st JGP victory which deserves a big congratulations!!

Like Ted said: "That was cool."

Can't but agree. Very entertaining. Their LP would be one I would show non FS-fans, to get them interested.

Yep, I agree also, that was very interesting FD. I am looking forward to see how they will do at their 2nd event.


They have been assigned to JGP Italy now. It is somewhat interesting that at the moment it looks like two Russian event winners will skate there because Polishchuk/Vakhnov have been assigned there also. Further changes are possible of course.
