Jr. Ladies Short

The madness that is COP has inflicted so many laybacks into catchfoot into Bielman spins that I had to come up with an abbreviation in my notes for it: LCB. So many of these girls have such pretty laybacks I would love to get to just sit and enjoy them, but no! COP says pretty isn't good enough, you have to put your foot next to your head. Because it is no longer a skating competition it is a contortionist contest. This is not a complaint against any young lady doing Bielman, it is all the Speedskater's fault, he is solely to blame.

Anna Malkova

She fell on a triple jump that would have been her combo. She landed a triple loop. She did a one footed flying sit spin with good height, position and excellent line. She has good stretch in her spiral sequence. She did an Ina Baur into a high double axel.
4th place

Victoria Rackohn

She landed a triple lutz/double toe, barely held the landing but got it done. She landed a double loop. She does very flexible, pretzel spins that actually gain speed when she changes positions. She did an Arabian split at the beginning of her spiral sequence the split and the spiral were very extended. She did a back Charlotte into a double axel. She has a gorgeous one footed flying sit spin, beautiful positions. She has great stretch, extension and is very elegant.
2nd place

Nicole Huenergardt

She fell on a salchow and landed a loop. She has a beautiful layback spin with the ubiquitous catchfoot/Bielman finale. She held her arms straight out in front of her doing her sit spin, nice position. She has a well done change edge spiral, smooth edge transition and held it for 2/3 of the rink. Nice arm movements.
11th place
