In the short-dance, the Russians Betina Popova / Yuri Vlasenko (59.91), second in the stage of Ostrava, posed a serious threat to the Barcelona's qualification to the final, scoring the best score of the season. The superiority & agrave; emerged on the technical side has allowed students to Ksenia Rumantsieva to accumulate more than four points margin over pi & ugrave; immediate followers. The couple Moscow, impeccable on twizzles, which opened the program, & egrave; was dominant pattern (silver samba), failing to reach the level pi & ugrave; high available on the second sequence. To crown a performance beyond expectations, & egrave; came the best rating on each item of the program.
The expected US Lorraine McNamara / Quinn Carpenter (55,61), however, appeared to increase compared to the test of Ostrava, had to settle for second place, accomplices levels lost their way on twizzles and sequences of silver samba. Canadians Brianna Delmaestro / Timothy Lum (51,81), instead of d & rsquo; honor in the stage of Ljubljana are not, however, gone beyond the third place, while revealing an improvement on the technical side than the previous release.
In fact, the velleit & agrave; North American couple, both still in the race with a win to qualify for the final, they were literally wiped out by Popova / Vlasenko. At this point, in the light of what happened in the previous stages and participants of the camp & rsquo; ultimate act of qualifying to be held & agrave; in Zagreb, the result is a final with two Canadian couples and four Russian couples. A similar scenario, impronosticabile on the eve of the season, he would have the resounding as from 2003 on at least a couple dancing the United States took part in the final.
In fourth place, with a new personal record, it is placed until the Ukrainians Valeria Gaistruk / Alexej Olejnik (49,02), which preceded the Russians Sofia Evdomikova / Egor Bazin (48,69).
Entrants Italian, School Forum, Valentina Gabusi / Nik Mirzakhani (38,31) have closed the short-dance in tenth place.
The women's short program was won by the Japanese Wakaba Higuchi (58,99), gi & agrave; protagonist in the stage of Ostrava. The thirteen year old Tokyo has confirmed that you have the best triple lutz circuit, performing in absolute ease the difficult jump preceded by the step in the second half & agrave; of music. However, it has not been all roses and flowers as & egrave; correctly received a call from the wrong wire on the detachment of the flip. L & rsquo; mistake did not allow the national champion novice to break through the wall of the sixty points, but did not affect in any way the final result. For the rest, the rising star of Japanese skating has executed a double axel with huge amplitude and high altitude, without forgetting the tops of excellent workmanship.
Higuchi preceded Elizavet Turzynbaeva (55,31), a student of Brian Orser has a technical background rather interesting. The fourteen year old Kazakh landed with a step-out combination Rittberger triple / triple toe loop, and lost by a few tenths of a triple lutz not preceded by the step, but egrave &; was flawless on the other elements, especially the sequence of steps that has earned the & rsquo; unique four level assigned in the race.
In third place, there is the & rsquo; waiting Proklova Russian Alexandra (52,89), remained firm due to injury for several months during the spring and s & rsquo; summer. L & rsquo; student of Inna Goncharenko, compared to the habits, paid duty on the elements of jump falling into ruin on the triple lutz, historically one of its strengths, and not completing the rotation of the triple flip, which opened the combination with the triple toe loop. In the free program, the fourteen year-old from Moscow, capable of performing one of the best double axel of the day and a spinning upside down without equal in the race, will & agrave; perci & ograve; call to retrieve at least one position to not compromise the possibility to see & agrave; access to the final circuit.
The surprise of the competition & egrave; Lutricia was the German Bock (52.34), fourth in close contact with the pi & ugrave; Proklova listed. Nell & rsquo; occasion, the fifteen-Chemnitz, gi & agrave; eligible for the events of the senior class, presented a compelling triple lutz and because of a triple flip, slightly short, has not completed the most of a valuable combination closed by a triple toe loop.
L & rsquo; pupil Monika Scheibe, author of the new personal record today, ruled the Russian Elizaveta Yushchenko (51,67), best of the lot on the elements of spinning top, but suffers from a triple lutz not preceded by the required step and have not performed due to the combination of & rsquo; not slipped landing a triple flip. Lingered also the US Leah Keiser (49,66), seventh due to a disastrous fall on the triple lutz and to get stuck in combination with a triple toe loop instead of a second toe loop double & eacute; triple.
L & rsquo; Italian Giada Russo (38,50) has closed the segment of the race in twelfth position paying duty because of a double lutz not taken from the outer edge and the problems in the & rsquo; stick to a triple salchow double toe loop pianficato. In terms of spins, the flying camel and the inverted well executed they did oddly counterbalanced by the problems in achieving the best combined
In the men, the sixteen year old Russian Andrei Lazukin (68,73), recent winner of the first stage of the Cup of Russia, closed head in the short program remodeling the personal record. If at the end of the race l & rsquo; yet sixteen school Mishin riuscir & agrave; to defend the placing on the podium today or not & egrave; excluding the Russian Federation, visa problems permitting, may also decide to play him in & rsquo; latest step in Zagreb, where he could play for the chance to enter the finals. Lazukin, landed the triple axel with & lsquo; support of one hand on the ice, & egrave; was free from burrs on the rest of the elements of jump, performing best in combination with a triple toe loop also that triple flip normally indigestible for skaters Russians.
In the second position, you & egrave; He placed the Chinese Zhang (67,49), which has outperformed the leader of the standings on five of the seven elements provided, but has accumulated detachment to have presented a double axel instead of & eacute; triple and a wire suspicion on the triple flip. On the sidelines, & egrave; important to remember that seventeen of Changchun winning the race of Dresden would qualify automatically for the final, while any place d & rsquo; honor should not be enough.
Zhang has preceded the American Shotaro Omori (66,30), returned after time immemorial to express good levels of competitiveness & agrave ;, despite missing a triple lutz rotation that has partially negated l & rsquo; incidence of the best triple axel of the day.
After that, you are placed l & rsquo; Ukrainian Yaroslav Paniot (65,12), driven by the first technical score result among other things of a & rsquo; unusual combination triple flip / triple Rittberger, Japanese Are Kawahara (64,91), fell on a triple lutz missing rotation, but held in fee by a significant triple axel and spins competitive.
The Canadian Roman Sadvosky (59,90), surprise winner of the stage of Ostrava, & not egrave; went beyond the & rsquo; eighth place, betrayed by a fall on the triple lutz and the difficulty & agrave; in & rsquo; perform the best combination Rittberger triple / triple toe loop (spin at the end of Rittberger and landed on tip toe loop and missing of rotation). & nbsp; Fifteen-coached by the legendary Polish Gregor Filipowski, affected among other things by the fact of not being in possession of the triple axel, sar & agrave; called tomorrow to move up to third place not to miss the chance & agrave; to reach the final, which classifies the hand, & egrave; still within the reach of the Japanese Kawahara, as well as the Chinese Zhang.
L & rsquo; Blue Matteo Rizzo (42,45), stumbled into a bad day on the elements of jump you & egrave; had to settle for nineteenth place. The sixteen year old son d & rsquo; Art, filed a discrete triple lutz, & not egrave; failed to execute due to the combination of a triple flip open and degraded in the final double and, in the second part of the program, completed a single axel instead of & egrave; double, irregular element under the new regulation.
