After three seater d & rsquo; honor in consecutive stages of qualification, the Russian Alexander Petrov (208.37) & egrave; finally managed to win the coveted win, but, ironically, has crowned l & rsquo; aim with a performance slightly below its potential.
L & rsquo; student of Alexei Mishin & egrave ;, however, managed to establish itself in both segments of the race record in the race today by both the technical score pi & ugrave; high that the best performance in the sum of the components of the program. In the free, Petrov has completed seven of the eight planned triple, losing a street lutz, done twice, and the second triple axel landing with l & rsquo; help of a step-out.
Thanks to the result of Tallinn, the fifteen stationed in San Pietorbugo you & egrave; qualified for the final in Barcelona, ​​where beign & agrave; Chinese Boyang Jin that & rsquo; defeated in Ljubljana a month ago. & nbsp;
In the second position, you & egrave; placed the advanced Japanese Sota Yamamoto (202.70), which has cos & igrave; confirmed the result obtained in the stage of Courchevel. The fourteen-year-Nagoya, yet devoid of the triple axel, has performed extremely well in two double axel and seven triple jumps breaking for the first time in his career the wall of two hundred points.
On the first step pi & ugrave; bottom of the podium & egrave; He accommodated the Chinese Zhang (193.34), which opened the program with a sumptuous free quadruple toe loop, a fundamental element to compensate for the lack of the triple axel. Afterwards, they placed the promising Latvian Deniss Vasiljevs (181,42) and the thirteen American Andrew Torgashev (177.65). A margin note is the great comeback of the Russian Vladimir Samoilov (170.68), moved up from sixteenth to sixth place thanks to the good performance of two double axel and seven triple jumps in the free program.
A two stages from the end of the qualifying stage, the contenders for the four seats still available for l & rsquo; Final Act of Barcelona are the Korean June Hyoung Lee, first in Courchevel, the Canadian Roman Sadovsky, winning in Ostrava, Chinese He Zhang third in Tallinn, and the Japanese Shoma Uno, according to Aichi, Six Kasawara third in Ostrava, and Sota Yamamoto, second twice. & Nbsp; Sadovsky, Zhang and Kasawara will face off in less than seven days in Dresden, but the two Asians will be obliged to win to snatch the ticket to Spain. Lee and A compete, however, in & rsquo; final round of Zagreb, where they will find their way on the fearsome American Nathan Chen, in writing only to the stage in Croatia.
& Nbsp;
In the race for the pairs of artistic Russia & egrave; managed to monopolize the podium. The success, in accordance with the prediction of the vigil, & egrave; Maria went to the quoted Vigalova / Egor Zakroev, able to win by a wide margin in both segments of the competition. The association based in Perm has also obtained the best performance of the season at the junior level in demonstrating growth condition with respect to the stage of the Russian Cup a couple of weeks ago. In the free program, students Valentina Tiukova have laid down the law on triple twist lifts, including a lapse of quality & reverse agrave ;, and triple jumps launched, both performed flawlessly.
The place d & rsquo; honor, with a gap of more than twenty-four lengths, & egrave; went to Kamilla Gainetdinova / Sergei Alexeev (137.31), which, as has happened in the stage of Ostrava, preceded the pi & ugrave; young Anastasia Gubanova / Alexei Sinitsin (132.45), the first podium of his career in the circuit. With today's result Gainetdinova / Alexeev, a couple of the group Mozer followed specifically by Stanislav Morozov, keep alive the hope of being able to conquer the & rsquo; entry in the final, but will have to wait for the next steps to acquire the mathematical certainty.
The attractive Ukrainian Renata Oganseian / Mark Bardei (123.55), convincing seconds after the short program, they are completely wrecked in the segment pi & ugrave; long race by collecting three falls between jumps in parallel and launched, but mostly failing to perform reverse period, an element of greater value to all those who do not venture into quadruple launched. The winners of the Lombardy Trophy Junior have perci & ograve; had to settle for fifth position preceded by the Japanese Canadian school Ami Koga / Francis Boudreau Audet (124.31).
Bad day for the Italian couple Bianca Manacorda / Niccol & ograve; Macii (111.53), precipitated from the sixth position of the short-programm to ninth place finish. Specifically, compared to other occasions, & egrave; lacked a bit & rsquo; of punctuality & agrave; on different elements of the couple and were fatal landing on two feet of triple launched, as well as the fall of Manacorda on the double flip that would open the combination with a double toe loop. On the positive side, they go remarkability the two lifts, especially the group of three, once again well done.
& Nbsp;
In the short-dance & egrave; staged the first round of the & rsquo; pending challenge between the two pairs junior pi & ugrave; popular at the time.
The Russians Anna Yanovskaya / Sergey Mozgov (59,56), winners in & rsquo; latest edition of the circuit, they faced the Canadian Mackenzie Bent / Garrett MacKeen (59,83), record holders and rulers of the seasonal stage of Ostrava.
In the end, the difference between the two associations & egrave; was only twenty-seven hundredths of a point, but, surprisingly, the couple American & egrave; managed to get the better, driven by a technical achievement of excellence. Students of Carol and Jon Lane have, in fact, got a dual level four sequences of silver samba, unprecedented in the season. The scope of the performance of Bent / MacKeen & egrave; striking when one considers that in the course of today's gi & agrave; reach level three represented the & rsquo; exception to the rule.
Yanovskaya / Mozgov, despite l & rsquo; huge gap on the technical score, they managed to remain in the wake of the rivals by creating a vacuum on each item of the program components. Clearly, the outcome of the Russian pair has weighed the extremely difficulty & agrave; clearly evident on the sequences of silver samba (one for the first level, level two for the second).
The provisional podium & egrave; been completed by the pair composed by Hungarian & rsquo; former Carolina blue Moscheni and Adam Lukacs (51,61). The students of Barbara Fusar Poli preceded the young American Christina Carreira / Anthony Ponomarenko (50,62), gi & agrave; messisi light in the stage of Ostrava.
Not have gone, however, than the fifth places Americans Holly Moore / Daniel Klaber (49,36), with the debacle that today have lost all chance & agrave; to qualify for the final. Not egrave &; best way to Ukrainians Alexandra Nazarova / Maxim Nikitin (47,70), today only sixth and distant relatives of the couple admired in the past season.
