L & rsquo; student of Alexei Mishin & egrave; managed to snatch a standing ovation to the public of & ldquo; Sears Centre & rdquo; & nbsp; Hoffman Estates, setting a new personal best and the best performance of the season by far, in any case, gi & agrave; earlier in his possession.
The test today & egrave; was for & ograve; very significant as the & rsquo; s still seventeen stationed in St. Petersburg & egrave; managed to get the better & more ugrave; young compatriot Elena Radionova on the technical front and on each item of the program components, reversing the prediction of the vigil.
Tuktamysheva opened his performance with a & rsquo; s impressive combination triple toe loop / triple toe loop, followed by a secure triple lutz preceded by the step and then completed the elements of jumping a double axel complete with a raised arm, placed in the second half & agrave; of music. In addition, compared to previous releases, & egrave; managed to fix the top combo that got the most level & ugrave; the upper hand, so & igrave; as flying upside down and sit at the time the top best for Russia.
Radionova you & egrave; had to settle for second place, less than two points behind the race leader. In particular, the fifteen-year-Moscow lost valuable ground because of a & rsquo; s apparent uncertainty on & rsquo; landing of the triple lutz, opening jump of a combination lock on a triple toe loop. Compared to the tests carried out in early September, appropriate changes were made to the program since the jump preceded by the step & egrave; moved in the second half & agrave; of music. There & ograve; Accordingly, the current version & egrave; appeared still to be finished in different parts of the understanding that a flamenco, albeit interspersed with a song by Jennifer Lopez, remains a very challenging theme song for a girl of fifteen. On the positive side, go remarkability the double axel, became decidedly more & ugrave; secure than in the past, and the top upside-down element of enormous value that allows you to enhance the inherent qualities of flexibility & agrave; the junior champion in office.
The hostess did not Gracie Gold & egrave; gone beyond the third place, suffers from & rsquo; landing on two feet of combination triple lutz / triple toe loop and a simple mistake on the gearbox foot of the top combo that made the & rsquo; invalid element. Despite the steps to empty the & rsquo; pupil of Frank Carroll & egrave; managed to limit the damage than the Russian athletes thanks to the best sequence of steps of the day and for the proper performance of the double axel and triple Rittberger, both located in the second half & agrave; of music.
The fourth & egrave; was obtained from the American Samantha Cesario, ambitious in presenting the program at the beginning of a difficult combination triple flip / triple Rittberger, appeared, however, to limit the rotation of the second jump. Additionally, doubt & egrave; was also aroused by the triple lutz preceded by the step taken by a thread and no doubt also to limit the rotation. In this regard, it should be for & ograve; pointed out that the brush technician has judged under rotated triple Rittberger and adjust the triple lutz.
After that, you & egrave; I have placed rookie Korean Youn Park, technically solid, despite landing a triple lutz complex. At the moment, & ograve ;, the main heel of Achilles 'of sixteen Seoul remains, as in the past season, the gap that persists between one element and the' other, a problem which, however, about the & rsquo; s entire new generation of skaters in Korea.
The main disappointment of the segment of the race & egrave; was the & rsquo; pending US Mirai Nagasu, relegated to tenth place because of a bad fall on a triple flip attempt and rotated under a combination of fact not performed because the triple Rittberger & egrave; was attached a simple toe loop.
The new student Tom Zakrajsek you & egrave; putting behind only the US and Australian passport Brooklee Han & egrave; was also preceded by the Georgian Elene Gedevanishvili, the French Mae Berenice Meite, author of a good combination triple toe loop / triple toe loop, but for the & rsquo; once again penalized by the assessment of the components of the program, the Japanese Haruka Imai, at ease on the combination triple salchow / triple toe loop, but fall into ruin on an attempted triple Rittberger under rotated, and from & rsquo; Ukrainian Natalia Popova,
