The partial success & egrave; went to Spain's Javier Fernandez, who has posed a serious threat to the achievement of the third consecutive title, enterprise crowned for the 'last time the Soviet Alexander Fadeev between 1987 and 1989. The test today dell''allievo Brian Orser not & egrave ; was still flawless landings because of "messy" is the quadruple salchow preceded by step, that the combination triple lutz / triple toe loop. Instead, it has stolen the 'eye on the triple axel preceded by un''intricata series of steps, without forgetting steps and spins that have earned the level pi & ugrave; high available. Fernandez got the evaluation pi & ugrave; high on each component of the program and also showed the best technical score, closing the program with a margin of eight points on the most abundant & ugrave; immediate pursuer.
In second place, it & egrave; certificate Russian Sergei Voronov, author in opening a valuable combination quadruple toe loop / triple toe loop, but hopelessly forced to pay duty for an error sull''axel, performed twice instead of & egrave; three times, resulting in the loss of at least six points.
The provisional podium & egrave; was completed by Czech Michal Brezina, impeccable on triple axel and quad salchow preceded by step, but betrayed, when the road seemed downhill, from a fall on the triple flip that was supposed to open the combinazine.
The Russian national champion Maxim Kovtun not & egrave ;, however, went beyond the fourth position, penalized by a landing with step-out and in the hands of the land quadruple salchow and then again in trouble & agrave; on the quadruple toe loop, not preceded by the required step and landed Leaning one hand on the ice. In particular, the 'student Elana Buianova not cashed the serious points of the combination is not performed, losing the chance & agrave; to hoist himself in the place of 'honor.
Afterwards, you & egrave; placed the German Peter Liebers, author of a small burr sull''atterraggio the triple axel, but the impeccable combination triple flip / triple toe loop and triple lutz preceded by step.
The Frenchman Florent Amodio, appeared on the piece more than the latest releases, finished in sixth place, missing the 'appointment with the quadruple salchow, completed only three times, but proving all''altezza of the situation on the other elements of the jump, the triple combination lutz / triple toe loop in particular.
Balance of pi & ugrave; that also positive for the Israeli movement, thanks to the placings, respectively in seventh and eighth place, veteran Alexei Bychenko and emerging young Daniel Samohin, both able to complete the quadruple toe loop well. Only the ninth, however, the sixteen year old Russian Adian Pitkeev, ruinously fell on a quadruple toe loop at the limit with the rotation, but then able to bounce back and perform in the second half & agrave; music a good triple axel and the combination triple lutz / triple toe loop.
The 'blue Ivan is Righini & egrave; had to settle dell''undicesima position, betrayed by un''inopinata fall on the combination triple lutz / triple toe loop, closed by a second jump properly downgraded to double by the technical panel. On the positive side, should be highlighted the 'excellent execution of the triple axel and triple flip preceded by step, made with both arms above his head.
