The courses and historical claims they wanted the champion spagonolo complimented poker titles directly at the ice rink named after Ondrej Nepela, who was the 'last to win at least four consecutive wins in the continental event. In Bratislava, there '' & egrave; its I never have been playing as the challenge dell''allievo Brian Orser & egrave; It was essentially against S & egrave; same. Nell''occasione, & egrave; fell the European record, and, after Yuzuru Hanyu, Fernandez & egrave; He became the second skater in the world to ingrangere the barrier of three hundred points. Filed a short program became law in history, the twenty-four madrile & ntilde; or & egrave; reconfirmed almost the same levels as in the segment pi & ugrave; long race by completing three quadruple jumps and six triples. In truth & agrave ;, triples rotated would be seven, but the second attempt to triple axel, novelty & agrave; held in Serbia for the European Championships, it & egrave; It ended with a crash. For the rest, & egrave; no need to stress the 'artistic excellence sciorinata by Fernandez nell''interpretazione song "Guys and Dolls" by Frank Sinatra.

The almost twenty-eight of the Ukrainian school has had the merit of containing errors in the two days of competition managing to complete well in the free program a quadruple toe loop and seven triples, six of which were performed in the second half & agrave; of music. Moreover, a fall on the second attempt to quadruple toe loop did not affect more & ugrave; of such a provision, which, thanks to an exponential growth of the components of the program, has enabled Bychenko to crumble the national record. The bronze medal & egrave; It was conquered with nails and teeth from Russian Maxim Kovtun, second in the last edition. The twenty year old from Ekaterinburg reacted with character to a disastrous start of the free program features a quadruple salchow landed with some heartache too, from a bad fall on the quadruple toe loop and a second attempt to quadruple salchow opened in flight after just over & ugrave; of a rotation.

The extravagant transalpine committed nell''ultima competition agonsitica career, has unsheathed one of his best free programs ever taking off the complete satisfaction of the quadruple salchow, which has caused so much heartache in the past three years. A trial ended, touching & egrave; was the 'embrace of the mentor recently found Nikolai Morozov, in tears for the provision dell''allievo. & nbsp; Behind Amodio & egrave; placed Russian Mikhail Kolyada, climbed from ninth to the sound of triple axels of excellent quality & agrave ;. The twenty year old from St. Petersburg preceded by a few cents' blue Ivan Righini, who set a new national record improving by almost ten points the previous limit set by Samuel Contesti. The 'student of Michael Huth, took to the track to the tune of a medley of Pink Floyd, skated a convincing free program enhanced by two triple axels high bill. Impeccable of steps and spins, it performed a double axel and seven triple jumps, leaving & ograve; on the plate a couple of places because of a completed double lutz instead & egrave; three times in the final. Great satisfaction for Matteo Rizzo, able to the first appearance of his career in the European Championships to store a significant thirteenth place with a match over two hundred points.
