ISU Jr. Grand Prix 2018/19 - Overview; event #1; qualifying for GPF

[Elizabeth]

Although I guess we can't really compare a senior event to junior one completely, here are their final point totals in summary...

At GTSA Summer Skate:
Nam: 262.11
Keegan: 242.07

JGP: Stephen 226.63

This will be an interesting Nationals in January. Guess those are "likely" to be the top 3.

Well, off to bed..."early" start tomorrow.

I look forward to being there and won't count out any possibilities at this time - ice is slippery

One really should never compare across events and certainly never between junior and senior - for the latter the program time and the elements are different; looking at the marks between CDN judging panels and international ones brings in yet another element of non-comparison.

Yes, that was what I was meaning and you made a good point about the difference in length of the performances. I think undoubtedly anything could happen.

Well, the first event in this season's JGP is over - champions were identified in all disciplines. The results and detailed protocols are all available here: http://www.isuresults.com/results/seaso ... gpsvk2018/

The Russian anthem was played 3 times and the Canadian anthem should have been played once but someone slipped up/lost the audio file!

I've opened a new thread for the next event.

You can go to the YouTube channel at any time to see archived videos from Event #1 (Bratislava).

In the meantime, you might find this interesting:

Thanks. That's really horrible about the national anthem. All the Canadians could have sung it together.

Apparently the changes in scoring for this season (GOE values) were not properly applied to the rhythm dance at Event #1. Revised scores have been released:

The standings in each of the disciplines can be found on the ISU site - these will determine who gets to compete at the GPF in Vancouver in December. Four of the seven events have now been completed and the standings have been updated:
