In the men, the victory & egrave; went to the Japanese Ryuju Hino (203.73), engaged in the first full-time season in the major category after getting results prestigious junior level.
The nineteen year old stationed in Nagoya, spent three-time finalist in the Junior Grand Prix, & nbsp; & egrave; imposed in both segments of skating a short race without major open burrs with a good combination and a triple axel triple lutz / triple toe loop performed extremely relaxed. In the free program, however, the strategy & egrave; was less conservative as the & rsquo; student of Hiroshi Nagakubo & egrave; on track with the & rsquo; s going to perform a quadruple toe loop and eight triple jumps, including two axel and two lutz. However, I missed all & rsquo; s appeal four times, short rotation and ended with a crash, and the triple flip, taken from a wire inside and not too ended with a crash.
Hino, greatly benefited from the fact that well master the triple axel, preceded the & rsquo; s emerging blue Matthew Rizzo (178.90), author of a short program without much smudging open by a good combination triple flip / double toe loop. In the segment pi & ugrave; length of the race, however, performed a double axel and six triple jumps, including two lutz and two flips, paying duty on a couple of landings. For the rest, the combination of spins and steps of the sixteen year old son d & rsquo; art & egrave; revealed competitive and overall quality & agrave; better than presented by the winner.
The podium & egrave; was completed by twenty-two German Christopher Berneck (178,46), ahead of Matt Della Torre (165,50), appeared in obvious increase compared to last appearances. The eighteen year old Trent has performed in the short program combination triple salchow / triple toe loop, while in the open has completed two double axel and five triple jumps, including two good Rittberger. Quite at ease combinations, Della Torre & egrave; Also shown on the piece of steps and spins mainly losing ground compared to the one who & rsquo; preceded by assessments & more ugrave; low on the components of the program.
In the women, due to an overwhelming comeback in the free program, you & egrave; sets the twenty-four Roberta Rodeghiero (147.12), fresh from success in the & rsquo; Ondrej Nepela Trophy, the fourth event of the ISU Challenger Series circuit. Been lingering in the first segment of the race because of a problem landing the double axel and triple toe loop combination you run a / double toe loop, instead of & egrave; triple toe loop / triple toe loop, you & egrave; redeemed in the free program in which he made two double axel and five of the six planned triple jumps. The main change to empty & egrave; arrived at the coincidence of Rittberger, completed only twice. Very positive, however, the & rsquo; run triple lutz and triple flip, while in terms of spins and steps were not at levels & rsquo; height of the previous appearances. In any case, the important fact & egrave; represented by the consistency of performance now found the elements of the jump, despite a couple of landings not exceptional in the second part of the free program.
In second place is & egrave; placed to surprise Russian Jade (141.59), suddenly came back to the glories of a couple of years ago. The seventeen year old in Turin, impeccable elements of spinning top, has performed well in both programs is the Triple Rittberger that the triple salchow, elements of jump than in previous outings of the season gave some heartache too. In the free, as well as two double axel, were well done combinations triple salchow / double toe loop and triple Rittberger / double toe loop, which was offset by a triple Rittberger judged under rotated and a fall on the second triple salchow placed in the second half & agrave; of music.
Third place & egrave; Eveline went to the eighteen year old Swiss Brunner, (140,42), leading to the short-term program, which preceded the veteran Austrian Kerstin Frank. (139.19).
Best attempted by Micol Cristini (134.26), fifth in both segments of the competition. The seventeen year old Bergamo has proven to be on the right track to mastering the best triple Rittberger, which should be well & igrave; in addition to the & rsquo; s great dppio axel, triple salchow and triple toe loop. It remains to & ograve; regret for the lost levels in the short program on top combined with change of foot and on the flying camel, which enabled it to overcome the technical minimum to capture the & rsquo; s & agrave stand as a candidate; ahead of the World Cup.
As for the other Italian, Ilaria Nogaro (114.43) is & egrave; attested in seventh (114.43) and preceded Clare Cauldron (111.20) and & nbsp; Sofia Curci (101.07).
On the sidelines, in the absence of Kostner and Marchei, & egrave; ricoradare important that Rodeghiero and Russian are currently the only Italian skaters meet the minimum technical requirements to take part in the World Championships.
