Note - there is a possibility these are final standings... after I post ordinals, etc, maybe someone can figure it out?

[NYSk8Fan]

The first four are definitely final standings - that was the podium. As I recall the results for the free and final were exactly the same until you got down to 7 or 8 where there was one switch. Short seemed not to count.

Junior Ladies LP Notes

Doing this while its fresh. Note I probably have more errors in my notes here than I do with the SP, especially for those who are not in the top 5-6. Going by order of whatever I just posted back a while ago.

1. Emily Hughes
Layback, 2A (nice), 3T/2T, split (high), 3Z/2T (possible 2-foot on the 3Z, but she landed a nice clean one in warmup), side/forward spirals, 2A (less height than 1st, but completed), spreadeagle (very DEEP edges, filled at least half the rink in circular and serpentine pattern), 1F (at this point she started looking tired), flying camel, another split, 3F attempt (hand down, possible 2-footed, but this was at the very end just before final spin), camel/sit/backsit/Y.

2. Katherine Hadford
Spreadeagle into 2A, 3T/2.5T (2nd jump was clearly cheated but definitely an attempt to eek out a triple), layback/foot-to-head spin, ina baeur, turns and a little pause into a 3L (looked underrotated), 3Z (fall), Charlotte, stars/butterfly?/sit/Y (not nearly Kerrigan, but a nice attempt), 2A, 3S (turn out), camel/sit/layback/Biellmann/Biellmann.

3. Kristina Moore
2A (nice), 3F (hand down), 3S/2T, sit, 3T, 3L/2?, side/forward spirals, 2A (fall), 2T, 2Z, f-camel/doughnut/backspin. She was the first skater of the final group and surely enough indicated the final group of 5 was going to be the ones to watch.

4. Leah Agler
Camel/back-camel, back spiral, 1A, 2Z/2T, 1S, flying-sit, 3T (turn out), 2S, forward/side/back spirals, 2A(turnout)/2T, foot-to-head spin, 3?T, 2Z, split, sit/layback/Biellmann/Y.

5. Kristine Stone
F-camel/sit, 1Z, 2S, 2A (nice), forward/f-catch-foot/back spirals, 3T (fall), layback, 1A-step-2T, layback/Biellmann? (can't read my own writing!), 2F. Sorry Arsenette... but even with that she was still just behind the top 4... very nice chereography!

6. Jenny Erika
2Z, 2F/T?, layback, 2A, ina bauer, 2F, Y-spin, 2S, spreadeagle (nowhere near Emily's but decent), forward/forward/back/side spirals, 1.5?L, Biellmann, split, 1A, 2S/2T, camel/sit/Y/backsit/Y. Nice spin positions and flow in her program.

[Arsenette]

:D Nothing to be sorry about! She did well! I don't think she's ever competed in a big competition.. there is hope for Norths! All in all a job well done! I'm sure she would love some of those jumps back! :oops:

Senior Ladies SP

1. Krissa Miller
2A, f-camel, 3S/2T, layback, 3L (underrorated), forward/back-catch-foot spirals, camel/sit/layback/backsit/backspin. She looked nervous or having a clogged nose in the warmups, but went out and delivered.

Sidenote - Me thinks Emily can compete with the senior ladies at the event. :D

2. Darya YaelZuravicky
3F/2T, 3L, 2A (fall), f-camel, forward/back-catch-foot/side spirals, foot-to-head layback, sit/layback/doughnut.

3. Megan Doyle
2A, layback, 3S (fall, but she did do a 3S/2T in warmups but was blowing other attemps at the 3S in warmups), 2L, death drop or butterfly/sit, forward (nice)/back-catch-foot/side spirals, camel/donut/sit/Y, spreadeagle, very nice spins overall.

4. Lauren Thomas
3T(fall)/2T, 3F, back/forward/f-catch-foot spirals, 2A, camel/layback/backsit/Y (not really high leg on the Y), split, layback.

5. Stephanie Roth
F-camel, 3T (fall), 1Z, camel/layback/b-camel, forward/forward/side spirals, 2A (low landing)), split, layback. Her spins are fast. She seems to be one of the skaters that lands really hard on the ice.

6. Monica Sher
2A (fall), deathdrop or butterfly/sit, 3S/2S, 2Z, layback, f-catch-foot/back/forward/side spirals, camel/sit/layback/Y/backspin.

Arsenette - what triples does she have now pretty consistent? 3-sal and 3-toe? Depending on what the schedule is like, I might make a bit of North Altantic sectionals... Sat is doable, but the 1st 4 weekdays, unless they have much going on after 6PM, I doubt if I'll turn up.

[Arsenette]

I dunno exactly.. ask sk8pr1mom :halo:

P.S. Any other results? Like Intermediate Non-Final? Hint.. hint?

[adrianchew]

Umm - I was too lazy to take down non final results of anything! :P

I'll go watch more skating this weekend - but umm Int. Ladies are like when I'm still sleeping! 8O

[Arsenette]

Ay dito.. (spanish phrase for "oh dear" pitifully)

Don't worry about it.. I'll find out somehow.. (dang car!!! Pray we get one this weekend!!! :oops: )

Anywho.. These are my three:

PRFSF Calendar Link (http://www.prfsf.org/Calendar.htm)

Kristine Stone Cruz (skated both Junior Programs)
Stefanie Rodriguez (skated both Novice C & Non-Final Short)
Amanda Wiest Vives (skated Novice B - Made Final so she skates Saturday and Sunday).

:D

(Edited to replace Intermediate with Novice!!! (what a ding-bat!!!)

Thanks for the reports and results, Adrian!

As I was sitting there last night trying to add up the marks I had hurriedly written down, I occured to me that it would be so much easier to enter it in my Palm and let a program do the work. Isn't there some techie out there who could create a program which calculates the placements for us?

I think someone on SkateFans said they had been working on such a thing. However, with Ottavio's Follies being adopted, that'd no longer be applicable.

[NYSk8Fan]

How long til the scoring system changes? I thought it was 2 seasons.

[Arsenette]

Here in the US?? I don't know.. but Skate America is going to be the test site from what I understand.. Hold your breath folks 8O
