2026 Junior Worlds - Women FS

[victorskid]

I will have to go back and watch some of the skates with sound - I just got off the frustrating 2 hr. plus Zoom meeting

I was able to copy scores at the appropriate time between groups 2 & 3 though.

 

[jlai]

((Oka)) Bath is likely at least silver!!

 

[her grace]

Oka

3z-3t with good distance, fall on 3a attempt, 3r with a leg wrap, nice knee bend in her basic skating and getting into the ice; flip out of 3z, don’t think this is going to keep her on the podium

 

[MsZem]

Oka is obviously an excellent skater, but this LP is just off.

I found it very dull.

 

[jlai]

I wouldn't mind to have the first medals for both AUS and ISR.

Oka heard you and tried to make it happen

 

[Wyliefan]

Mayuko hangs on for bronze. That's silver for Hana!

 

[Karen-W]

Oka

3z-3t with good distance, fall on 3a attempt, 3r with a leg wrap, nice knee bend in her basic skating and getting into the ice; flip out of 3z, don’t think this is going to keep her on the podium

Too big of a lead from the SP saved her podium placement.

 

[her grace]

I don’t think that FS was only 1 point worse than Shifrin

 

[MsZem]

I don’t think that FS was only 1 point worse than Shifrin

Agreed.

 

[her grace]

Shimada had trouble with her sit spin

ETA: everything else was fine, what a competitor!

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Shimada's jumps are so tiny, but seemingly she manages to get the rotation somehow anyway.

 

[Kateri]

I'd give the LP to Hana, here. Mao looks tight.

 

[Wyliefan]

Good Lord, if that's how she skates when she doesn't feel well ...

Oh, poor girl is wincing.

 

[Karen-W]

Hmmmm... How hard are the judges going to work to give Mao the FS win here even with a rather generic program? I'd give Hana the FS win, honestly.

 

[Wyliefan]

Mark and Ted have me really worried about her now.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I liked Bath more.
I also think Shifrin should have medalled above Oka.

 

[Karen-W]

Mark and Ted have me really worried about her now.

The fact that her coach is Mie Hamada hasn't worried you before now?

 

[Wyliefan]

That was an ongoing worry. This is a more specific worry.

 

[Spikefan]

I know she was just coasting this season waiting for seniors, but both of her programs were just blah for me. I’d give Hanna first in the FS.

 

[jlai]

I know she was just coasting this season waiting for seniors, but both of her programs were just blah for me. I’d give Hanna first in the FS.

The judges agreed

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Well, nice that Shimada is now the absolute record holder of the Junior World titles, but I don't agree with the results

Thank you, ladies!

 

[Karen-W]

Well, I really hope that dampens some of the "Mao's gonna come in and win everything next season" talk that's been reaching a boiling point since the Olympics.

Judges got the FS result right in giving Hana the win.

 

[jlai]

Does Isr and Aus have two girls to send every jgp?

[SidelineSkater]

The poor kid was very sick and managed to deliver. It's gross how some people continue to kick people when they're down.

 

[Karen-W]

Does Isr and Aus have two girls to send every jgp?

Australia has enough junior women competing but I expect that most of them would wind up finishing near the bottom of every JGP just like their 2nd woman did here at Jr Worlds.

Not sure about Israel.

 

[her grace]

Well, I really hope that dampens some of the "Mao's gonna come in and win everything next season" talk that's been reaching a boiling point since the Olympics.

I’m looking forward to seeing Shimada compete with Nakai again, who I think progressed considerably this season. And, of course, seeing her face everyone else in seniors will be fun, too.

 

[Karen-W]

The poor kid was very sick and managed to deliver. It's gross how some people continue to kick people when they're down.

Yes, she's so far down she's on the top of the podium.

Even if she wasn't sick today, her FS this season is incredibly blah and I'm not sure it deserves the scores it receives.

 

[her grace]

Rough junior worlds for SUI and USA to go down to only 6 JGP spots next season and with no chance of getting more.
