Be that as it turned out, the women's competitions of the Junior Grand Prix circuit have confirmed to possess a unique pathos and gave emotions at will & agrave ;. For this reason, the "Dom Sportova" Zagreb could only be a favored setting of a free program for strong hearts, he has spared twists up on the top instant profit. When everything seemed to assume the qualification for the final of the Barcelona fourteen Japanese Wakaba Higuchi, winner of Thursday on short Igrave; and author of a convincing performance in the open today, her compatriot Marin Honda, took to the track without any pressure as or almost as & egrave; some of the prize trip in Spain, & egrave; He was the author of a test without any trimming, which enabled it to win the first success in the circuit and eliminate Higuchi benefit the Russian Alisa Fedichkina, interested spectator of the competition. The rivalry & agrave; between the two great hopes of the Japanese figure skating began nell''ormai far 2011, & egrave; cos & Igrave; enriched with a new chapter and tears on the podium of Higuchi represented the perfect synthesis of an epilogue that few would have predicted. Obviously, there is no reference to a possible team game, which can not & ograve; exist in this discipline, but the difficulty atavistic & agrave; Honda nell''eseguire a program without at least a passing empty.
Fourteen-year Kyoto, third after the short program, performed in the segment pi & ugrave; long race two double axel and seven triple jumps, including two flip, but technical aspect aside, has surlcassato Higuchi in the artistic proving decidedly lowered into the part and fully at ease on the choreography created by Tom Dickson on the notes of the soundtrack "Beetlejuice".
Honda, another product of the increasingly & ugrave; emerging school of Mie Hamada, you & egrave; united all''affollata company of athletes able to break down the wall of 180 points during the season. Can not & ograve ;, however, go unnoticed as the best performance of the six finalists are enclosed in a range that starts from 181.22 points to 189.50 points Honda and get the Russian Polina Tsurkaya, seasonal record holder.
Wakaba Higuchi, dealing with programs that do not seem able to capitalize on its best quality & speed agrave ;, & agrave; in the first place, he said goodbye to the final opening in flight a flip, historically the jump for her more & ugrave; complex. However, you can not & ograve; forget what previously performed, including the combination triple lutz / triple Rittberger and opening triple lutz / triple toe loop in the second half & agrave; of music. On balance, the fourteen year old Tokyo has put together two double axel and six triple jumps, including two lutz and two Rittberger, but, not coincidentally, & egrave; He was outshone by pi & ugrave; elegant and relaxed Honda on each item of the program components.
The next challenge between two Japanese, with Shiraiwa, Mihara, Sakamoto, Matsuda, and Aoki Nitaya tutt''altro that beats, will be held & agrave; at the Ibaraki prefecture between 21 and 23 November. There will & agrave; giving away the 'coveted national junior and probably a place in the sun in the lead pi & ugrave; major of 2016.
The seventeen year old Russian Pervuskhina Diana, who, at the end of the short program had cherished the dream of being able to secure an unexpected access to the final, & egrave; He wrecked in the race today confirming the historical difficulty & agrave; in being able to run free consistency. The 'student Evgeni Rukavitsin has, however, won first career podium in the circuit being able to resist the return of sixteen Korean Ji Hyun Byun, a kind of clone of Kim Yu Na in terms of elegance.
Next, you & egrave; Sara placed the compelling blue box, which, by virtue & ugrave; today's result consentir & agrave; an Italian skater born between 1999 and 2001 to take part in the second edition of the Winter Youth Olympic Games. The diciassetteenne coached by Claudia Mason and Edoardo De Bernardis has unsheathed in Zagreb two programs of quality & agrave; back to master the best triple lutz. After the seventh place finish in the short, the native of Aosta & egrave; uphill shots segment pi & ugrave; long race well completing a double axel and five triple jumps. Box, with some degree lost here and there & agrave; elements of spinning top, did not commit smearing making the best choreography of Edorardo De Bernardis on nontrivial song "Send in The Clowns" and putting on display remarkable qualities interpreative. The result & egrave; almost historic for the Italian movement considering that in the past the only Kostner (who won), Berton (third in un''occasione) and Garlisi (fourth) were able to get a better placing.
Thanks to Marin Honda, Japan closed the third victory of the season and the forty-fourth in the circuit, including five in the final statements. Moreover, seven Japanese skaters have achieved at least a podium, for a total of ten placings in the top three.
