In the women's field, Satoko Miyahara (183,90), after tax margin in the short program, you & egrave; repeated in the segment pi & ugrave; long race unleashing the provision of technical excellence.
The sixteen year old Kyoto, as well as having performed flawless spins that have earned the highest level available, has well completed two double axel and seven triple jumps, including two lutz well executed. I just regret for the feedback on the components of the program remained distant than hoped for, but there & ograve; Accordingly, Miyahara has, however, proved to be in possession of the necessary means to play a season of high-profile, in spite of & rsquo; immediate future sar & agrave; necessary to pay attention to the rotation of the jumps, appeared occasionally to the limit.
In the test today & not egrave; was less from the US Hannah Miller (170.26), which, in its rate, performed two double axel and seven triples, including two flip. The seventeen year old stationed in Michigan, author of a & rsquo; thrilling comeback from seventh to second place, & egrave; was l & rsquo; single athlete in the race to get the level four on the sequence of steps and, while not revealing the flexibility & agrave; by Miyahara, has reached the level pi & ugrave; Also high on the tops.
The podium & egrave; was completed by the second race in the United States Angela Wang, who held the post d & rsquo; honor at the end of the short program, but egrave &; been betrayed in the race today for some step-load too. In fact, in the & rsquo; ambitious program presented by eighteen coached by Kristy Krall, & egrave; missed a triple Rittberger, c & rsquo; & egrave; was a bad fall on the triple flip and a little & rsquo; approximation of the elements of the spinning top. However, the project to run two double axel and seven triple jumps, including two lutz and two Rittberger, it may also be within reach when conter & agrave; for real.
The fourth & egrave; went to a surprise Roberta Rodeghiero (150.94), which took account of a long line of European skaters, palmares in hand, & much more ugrave; quoted her. The twenty-four tesserata to society & agrave; & Ldquo; Sesto Ice Skate & rdquo; has improved all personal records, has crossed for the first time in 100 career points in the free program and most importantly, filed in both segments of the race the technical limits that will ensure the & rsquo; & agrave stand as a candidate; for the World Championships. Today, although with some complicated landing here and there & agrave ;, Rodeghiero has completed two double axel and six triple jumps, showing than in the past greater solidity & agrave; the elements of the jump, which is the true keystone of the improvements made manifest.
Following this, & egrave; placed a discreet Nathalie Weinzierl, (148.83) still struggling with a free in dry dock, but still able to put together five triple jumps. The German set in & rsquo; Sweden's Joshi Helgesson order (147.06), the French Laurine Lecavalier (139.01), Sweden's Viktoria Helgesson (137.73) and France's Anais Ventard (133.85), all who pi & ugrave; or less, & in trouble agrave; between jumps in the free program under rotated, dropped, and elements of jump canceled. In particular, it has raised some doubt on the physical condition of the Swedish sisters in distress evident in the second half & agrave; of the program.
Chiara Calderone (111.91), second Italian athlete in the race, he made his debut in the senior category getting a thirteenth place, but obtaining valuable experience for the future. Overall, the l & agrave; what understandable mistake, & egrave; however liked the & rsquo; attitude of the fifteen student of Maril & ugrave; Guarnieri, who presented programs potentially good technical rate with lots of triple flip and triple lutz, elements that do not normally abound in the Italian scene.
& Nbsp;
Between the pairs of artistic Americans are clearly imposed Haven Danney / Brandon Frazier (157,80), which, thanks to the best free day, they reversed the ranking of the short program, confirming the feeling with l & rsquo; Italian, where a year and a half ago they won the World Junior Championship.
Students of John Zimmerman and Silvia Fontana, except for the steps to empty on the jumps in parallel, skated a free program quality & agrave; performing the best triple twist, triple-fired and lifts.
The place d & rsquo; honor & egrave; was obtained by the Italians to surprise Bianca Manacorda / Niccol & ograve; Macii (132.80), initially intended to compete in the junior competition, but once redirected to the & ldquo; upstairs & rdquo; able to crush all personal records and to go beyond the minimum technical score to become eligible in the World Championships. The national junior title holders showed great familiarity on the elements of the couple and the lifting allowing himself the luxury of performing a reverse period rips applause. The next step will be agrave &; need to add a triple jump in parallel in the technical background.
Provision for nothing incoraggiane, however, for novices Russians Vera Bazarova / Andrei Deputat (130.40), completely wrecked in the free program marked by falls on the jumps and launched in parallel, items lost on the way and problems on the lifts. L & rsquo; & egrave only happy note; was the triple twist, but l & rsquo; impression & egrave; that the work to be done, either in terms of athletic and technically, both with huge l & rsquo; commitment to Grand Prix looming.
In the junior race, the interesting Ukrainian Renata Oganesian / Mark Bardei have had the better of the rookies Italian Irma Caldara / Eduardo Caputo and Australians Eliza Smith / Jordan Dodds
& Nbsp;
In the men, the American Richard Dornbush (237.28) preceded the wire the Japanese Takahito Mura (235.79) remodeling the personal record in the free program which is the sum of the segments of the race.
The two main protagonists of the competition have not been immune to smudges, but it has nevertheless proven gi & agrave; September & Outdoors, height of the situation in all, the difference in favor of the American & egrave; sprung from the best quality & agrave; of spins and steps, which allowed him to keep up with the technical side & Outdoors; ultimate winner of the Four Continents.
Dornbush, best day on the sum of the components of the program, has had to cope with a traumatic impact of the new regulation cancel seeing a combination of triple flip / double toe loop. In this case, the twenty-three California has committed the & rsquo; naivete & agrave; perform three double toe loop, daughter of & rsquo; error occurred in opening the & ldquo; disc & rdquo; when instead of & eacute; the planned quadruple toe loop has completed a double jump.
In any case, the two quadruple toe loop and five triples presented by Mura, Dornbush has responded with seven triple jumps valid well executed. The Japanese has paid, in particular, an error on an attempt to triple Rittberger opened in flight and in fact only completed single.
In third place is & egrave; placed l & rsquo; awaited Russian Adian Pitkeev (215,90), which, with eight triple jumps in the free program completed, preceded in & rsquo; Order the American Grant Hochstein (204.37), compatriot Moris Kvitelashvili (201.14) and Filipino Michael Christian Martinez (199.92), all authors of the new personal record. & nbsp;
The Frenchman Florent Amodio (199.70) & not egrave; instead went over the seventh place suffers from questionable strategic decisions. The fact that we will present a free program with two quadruple salchow and two triple salchow is, in fact, a huge risk, especially if, once made a mistake, is less than the lucidity & agrave; to change the score in the course d & rsquo; operates as happened today. In the end, twenty-four born in Brazil has performed four triple salchow seeing cancel two whole elements of jump.
