These are brief informations of each competitors and video links for their recent competitions. Julia LIPNITSKAIA (RUS) 183.05 172 is her lowest scores in this season.
Later part in the season, she scored from late 170 to early 180.
Also she placed 2nd at Russain Senior Nationals in last December and won the Russian Junior Nationals in February.
Her scores in both junior nationals and seneior ones were over 190, even though it were not international competitions. Jump consistency through this season and acrobatic signature "i" spin are her strong points.
Defending Junior World champion. Her score oscilitated from 159 to late 160 through the season.
In last Decmber, she won the Russian Nationals senior but she was defeated by Tuktamisheva in Youth Olympic Games in January, losing jump consistency again.
Her second medal at Junior World Championship will depend on her jump consistency which came back and went away repeatedly. SP Russian National Sr.
FS Russian National Sr.
Gracie GOLD (USA) 172.69
She won last JPG with 172.69 scores and in January she finally became US National junior champion with overall score 178.92 while showing stable jump consistency and impressive height in her triple-triple. She became the talk of the town among US figure skating fans.
Actually, last season, she failed in advancing nationals.
However, she went through that bitter experience with the help of a sports psychologist and finally got guts and came back as a junior National champion this season. She added that she could keep her pace in big events in her interview just after winning the junior national title. Can she feel free from the pressure at Junior World Championship?
SP U.S. National Junior
FS U.S. Nationals junior
Polina SHELEPEN (RUS) 162.34
For two months, Polina looked like a completely different skater at each two Russian nationals.
At senior Nationals in last December, she failed in various jumps and was placed at 10th with disappointng overall score 154.78
At junior Nationals in early Feburuary, she landed all three 3-3 combination jumps; 3T-3T in SP and 3Lz-3T, 3S-3T in FS. She won 2nd place with 182.54 (61.93 / 120.61) just behind LIPNITSKAIA
At Junior World Championships, she will finally show us who was real Polina Shelepen; an unstable splatting skater or a prominent triple triple combination master?
