Ice dell''Ondrej Nepela Ice Arena, the winner of the title he had again reason for compatriot Elena Radionova, gi & agrave; preceded the final of the Grand Prix and National Championships.
In both race segments, & egrave; It was the quality & agrave; execution of each element to make a difference for the benefit of dell''allieva Ethers Tutberdize, always the best both on the technical side and on each of the components of the program entry. To turn the tide of the game, not & egrave; It was simply a fall on the second double axel, only empty passage of a free program, which has approached perfection.
Radionova, the 'silver medal even twelve months ago, you & egrave; beaten like a lioness, saving direct style that jumps to other would end with a fall, but too & egrave; was the gap on the degree of execution of various elements, including spinning tops. The seventeen year old Muscovite deserves, in any case, be applauded for the way is facing un''evidente physical growth that has upset all the landmarks of the past.
As in Stockholm last season, the most & ugrave step; the bottom of the podium & egrave; It was occupied by Anna Pogorilaya, the third athlete in Moscow in the race. The 'student of Anna Tsareva has alternated passages of high bill, all the triple combination lutz / triple toe loop and obvious gaps in the script, including two severe drops. It does not go to memorize options underestimated as the gap from the head it was of twenty-eight points. & nbsp; Like it or not, all three Russian have turned two double axel and seven triples, conditio sine qua non to aspire to senior posizoni. Moreover, in the last four seasons, the 'only non-Russian athlete to be on the podium & egrave; was Carolina Kostner, who won in Zagreb in 2013 and third in Budapest a year later.
The fight for fourth place has rewarded the 'emerging Latvian Angelina Kuchvalska, author of a free program rips applause, characterized by the canons two double axel and seven triples, including a flip and a toe loop judged sottoruotati. The seventeen year old Riga has revealed great personality & agrave; and safety reeling off a complete technical background, made even more & ugrave; emphasize dall''eleganza.
In fifth place, you & egrave; placed the 'blue Rodeghiero Roberta, who has played the best game of his career for the first time surpassing the barrier of one hundred and seventy points so far in Italy within the reach of only the Marchei and Kostner. The twenty-five in Sesto San Giovanni's Room, after having filed a thick short program, you & egrave; also repeated in pi & ugrave segment; long race managing to complete two double axel and six triple jumps, including a flip atterato with a step-out. Nell''occasione, & egrave; It showed clear progress on steps and elements of spinning top, who have earned the highest level available with a degree of positive performance.
There were reasons for satisfaction for Jade Russo, who presented one of the best free programs ever built finishing in fourteenth place with all the personal records retouched. However, the 'now well known quality & agrave; of steps and spins, & egrave; been accompanied by difficulties & agrave; nell''eseguire the most of the pianficati jump elements. On balance, too many triple jumps sottoruotati have cost perhaps even the possibility & agrave; to bring home a close placement of the top ten positions, but remains well etched in the minds of most viewers & ugrave; beware the ability & agrave; to tackle head-on program with the increasingly & ugrave; rare ability & agrave; to seize every musical accent.
Finally, go rimarcate the good performances of the French Mae Berenice Meit & egrave ;, sixth and for the fourth consecutive year among the top ten of the German Nathalie Weinzierl, once again expressed at good levels and seventh convincing, without forgetting the Finnish seventeen Viveca Lindfors, eighth to debutto.Alla light of today's result, Russia will be & agrave; the 'one country, which you might & agrave; field three athletes in the next edition of the European Championship. Italy, Latvia, France, Sweden, Finland and Germany will however, two places available.
