In the early afternoon fell on the ice of the "Skoda Ice Rink" in Tallinn pairs of art, which have given rise to a short-program of high profile.
Three pairs, in fact, have gone above the previous limit seasonal, established by the Russians in Kosice Vigalova / Zakroev with 57.75 points.
The best score was obtained by the Chinese Xiaoyu YU / Yang Jin (62.25), already winners of the round held in Riga in late September. '' In the occasion, the students of Luan Bo have run each element with precision and rare refinement. It has gone from'' in unison double axel in parallel to'' grandeur of the triple toe loop launched, element rather trivial to those who have previously won the silver medal in the Junior World Championships''. '' The appreciation of the judges was evidenced by the generous, but relevant, assigned ratings on the degree of execution. On balance, the'' emerging couple stationed in Beijing scored the best technical score of the day and the highest rating in four of the five components of the program.
In second place, beaten to a'' bonding, are the Russians Vassilisa Davankova / Andrei Deuptat (61,48), returned to comment on levels of excellence after the extremely disappointing performance of the stage of Minsk. Specifically, the couple based in Moscow, former junior World Championships medalist in 2011, was almost perfect on every element except the death spiral back inside, assessed by the panel level one and become the subject of contention between the judges (it has gone, without a shot being fired from less than three on the degree of implementation at most two). The students of Sergei Dobroskokov have, however, taken the satisfaction of getting a higher rating than the Chinese under choreography.
The third place is occupied by the second pair Russian Evgenia Tarasova / Vladimir Morozov (57.99), only to bring home the level four out of every required element, including the tricky'' death spiral back inside. However, due to a landing with both hands on the ground and launched on the triple toe loop to lower overall assessment component of the program, have accumulated a gap of more than four points on the head of the race. It is therefore not enough for the technical score higher basic to be able to make a difference.
The couples on the podium at the time have crumbled his personal best and above all they put a mortgage on the'' qualification for the final Fukuoka, where the accounts in hand you will face five pairs Russian and Chinese.
In fourth place are the Americans Madelina Aaron / Max Settlage
