Junior Women SP & FS

"She'll need some help if she wants to maintain a medal"

No, bc pewter exists, so she has a medal.

 

[Karen-W]

Barely misses second as of now. she’s on the podium as of now, but we have to wait one more

Which means she's on the podium. This pewter medal-erasure during US Nats weeks is unacceptable!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Lautowa-Peguero is one that's too young for juniors internationally, right? She's itty bitty.

Pewter for me, is like exhibitions gala, not needed lol

 

[Theatregirl1122]

I feel like the commentators get told to pretend pewter doesn't exist bc they think audiences are too dumb to get it.

Lautowa-Peguero is one that's too young for juniors internationally, right? She's itty bitty.

DOB is Dec 20, 2012 - she won't be eligible for juniors until the 2026-27 season.

 

[Rukia]

pewter medals fix me for a brief moment haters don't know joy

 

[BrightSkates]

I know Skylar is only 12 but she really lacks that ice coverage and commanding of her power. It just feels like jump, jump,jump. Her face isn't giving much either.

 

[Aceon6]

I don’t find Skylar’s long set ups attractive. It’s like the jumps are completely disassociated from the program.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

There's something a little wonky about Lautowa-Peguero's jumps. They're small, which of course, she is small, but I feel like they're small even for that. Beyond that something else looks a little odd to me, but I'm not in teknik enough to tell what.

Will the telegraph affect the GOE?

 

[Wyliefan]

I missed Skylar yesterday, unfortunately. What a tiny cutie -- and what great jumps!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I say she finishes in second place

 

[Theatregirl1122]

I suspect that Sophie Joliene has slayed her way to the gold, probably silver for Skylar.

Lautowa/Pegeuro

3z-2t, 3r-2a-2a, very focused on the elements, waltz jump-3t-2t interesting, finally presenting the choreography after jumps are done, great spins, nerves of steel

 

[Karen-W]

This is the first time I've seen Skyler... She's quite special.

 

[Rukia]

I actually liked her jumps because she's very patient on take-off. She doesn't rush them which helps her have a higher success rate. I don't find them particularly small.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Oh my gosh, she almost won. Sophie wins by less than a point.

Some of them looked smaller than others to me. The 3T-2T looked nice and big. The 3Lo was small.

 

[Karen-W]

Oh my gosh, she almost won. Sophie wins by less than a point.

Sophie was also behind her by 7 points after the SP.

But, still, very impressive!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Of course I do you think we’re gonna find some of the senior skating skaters going to the junior worlds, but I think Sophie Jolene should be one of them

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

OK kitty cats Im trying to arrange my schedule a bit so I can watch senior pairs with everybody.

 

[Lizziebeth]

Wow, Skylar has nerves of steel. Very calm and well paced. I know she has a lot of growing to do, but she's pretty damn good already!

 

[slicekw]

I know Skylar is only 12 but she really lacks that ice coverage and commanding of her power. It just feels like jump, jump,jump. Her face isn't giving much either.

When she got to the spiral near the end, there was a flash of personality, but heck. Getting the skills down at 12 means she’s got a year to relax a bit and develop performance skills. Here’s hoping she continues to grow those skills.

 

[Jammers]

Better not to win at 12 i'm sure she will be glad to just get on the podium but not have the pressure of being the Junior champion.

They look fundamentally sound to me. But they shouldn’t earn a lot of GOE because not a lot of speed, distance, height, flow on landing, etc. Those are aspects she can improve as she grows.

 

[Karen-W]

Agree with @her grace and @Lizziebeth about Skyler's nerves of steel. That's what was the most impressive part of her skating, and the patience @Rukia mentioned.

let's hope no massive growth spurt!
