JGP #2 Ankara TUR - Women's SP & FS

Jr Women Victory Ceremony underway on the live stream.

One of the "flower boys" was barely taller than the bouquet he was holding!

And there were "fireworks".

I really hope Sophie can get consistent with her difficult jumps as she is becoming such a great package. I can see that she is starting to feel the music. She really reminds me of Trusova except I think she will become more artistic as displayed in her short program. So much potential!
 
Setting up for the Pairs medals after all the photos, etc. of the Women.
 
I turned off the audio so the getting drunk song wouldn't get stuck in my head. It got in there anyway. :lol:
 
Sophie Jolene's Base Value is :wideeyes:. She has eight points on Kim and Oka... both of whom have triple axels. She had nearly 20 BV points on Murakami.

I was initially thinking she'd be closer to 10th in the free, but the base value is crazy. Many of the jumps seemed to have the same mistake of being slightly too far forward.

Part of me is disappointed to see such an error-ridden program medal over the smooth skating of Murakami or Kaljuvere, but another part of me thinks juniors is where skaters need to put out this content in order to perfect it over time.

Minsong was flying around the ice, and maybe a little too fast to calm down to do the opening jump combination. Managed to find her legs after that, and landed the rest of the jump content.

A struggle with the jumps today for Maria Eliise - not the height or power she got in the short program.

Just couldn't quite finish the big jumps today, and then a uncharacteristic spin mistake. I like the program concept, and it could be something special when everything comes together.

Kaljuvere's SP was the performance of the competition for me. I'm usually a big fan of Japanese skaters, but Oka isn't there for me yet.
