FREE PROGRAM PAIRS OF ARTISTIC
Meagan DUHAMEL & ndash; & Ldquo; We have waited long before he could achieve in the race a performance comparable with what & nbsp; usually do at home workout. We were really good at handling pressure, but now fate has decided that we must always take to the track after a great performance. On the eve, our goal was to get on the podium because & eacute; in the past there & rsquo; we were never able. In any case, we are really proud to have improved our personal best all-time, and also that of the free program & rdquo;
Fedor Klimov & ndash; & Ldquo; I really think that today was the best performance of our season. Apart from a little trimming, we got all the levels that we had put in quote, good thing. Ci & ograve; Accordingly, we are aware that they must improve on different elements in such a way to get more & ugrave; points & rdquo; & nbsp;
HAN Cong & ndash; & Ldquo; First of all, we are happy to have taken part in the final of the Grand Prix, although the fact of having committed some mistakes & egrave; for us a matter of regret.

Elizaveta TUKTAMYSHEVA & ndash; & Ldquo; I am happy and surprised especially because & eacute; for the first time during the season I managed to complete my program perfectly free. Obviously, they are even more & ugrave; glad to have won the final of the Grand Prix also because & eacute; are recovering from a period when I was unwell and did not think of being able to express myself at good levels. & Nbsp; It & rsquo; was tough because & eacute; legs felt heavy, but I fought until the & rsquo; last breath. Now torner & ograve; in St. Petersburg and will try & ograve; recover better health to be competitive in the National Championships & rdquo;
Elena Radionova & ndash; & Ldquo; I am satisfied with my free program. I skated without mistakes, but not & egrave; was easy because & eacute; I got sick before the final. Today for me & egrave; was a pleasure to skate and especially avoid those mistakes that I had made in the short program. I never thought about the placement because & eacute; The main goal of my season & egrave; to skate again without making mistakes, and today we are successful & rdquo;
Ashley WAGNER & ndash; & Ldquo; Today for me & egrave; was an incredible day because & eacute; with a great performance against girls pi & ugrave; strongest in the world have managed to climb from & rsquo; the last third. Finally, I completed the best combination triple flip / triple toe loop and I ran in the race for the first time the combination triple Rittberger / euler / triple salchow. I wanted to challenge myself with something new, but now I have to think about the national and perform at that & rsquo; when two clean programs in contrast to what happened in the competition fluctuating Barcelona & rdquo;

Kayltin WEAVER & ndash; & Ldquo; I and Andrew could not be more & ugrave; happy cos & Igrave; not only because & eacute; we got our personal best, but also for how we skated. Everything & egrave; seemed easy. We felt immediately relaxed and especially prepared. Additionally, & egrave; was fascinating to skate in Barcelona. I do not know if you can say that it was the best race of our career, but surely & egrave; was the best of the season. We look & rsquo; s time to face the next races, received strong momentum from this victory & rdquo;
Madison CHOCK & ndash; & Ldquo; We are very pleased with today's performance and, in general, & egrave; was nice to skate in Barcelona. We were on the piece and in perfect sync. The public & egrave; revealed a great support and normally & egrave; pi & ugrave; easy to skate when your followers & egrave; really involved. Compared to yesterday we showed tremendous improvement and we are happy with how we finished the race & rdquo;
Guillaume CIZERON & ndash; & Ldquo; The performance today & egrave; was convincing. We were very focused on our program. You have to fix some technical aspects of curves twizzle and lift, but that remains today was one of our best evidence & rdquo;

Yuzuru Hanyu & ndash; & Ldquo; Today I was a bit & rsquo; nervous before taking to the track, but the fact of being able again to master the most of my body made me happy. For this I have to thank my & nbsp; team and many other people that I have been close. Before running the & rsquo; last triple lutz, I felt exhausted. I tried to shake me in some way, but I lost concentration wrong & rdquo;
Javier FERNANDEZ & ndash; & Ldquo; Even if I got the record season in the free program I made several mistakes. I had so much pressure on him, but I wanted to make at all costs two programs of quality & agrave; for all the fans who were watching and supporting me & rdquo;
Sergei Voronov & ndash; & Ldquo; In the NHK Trophy in Japan I skated after Hanyu and today in Spain after Fernandez. When in the short program & egrave; was announced the name of Javi, & egrave; was as if l & rsquo; entire football team Barcelona had fallen on the track. Today I felt a bit & rsquo; voltage, but overall I felt too comfortable. I am a bit & rsquo; sorry for not having landed the most of the first four times, and for failing to perform the second completing a triple, but I'm happy for the rest of the service and of course the result & rdquo;
