Triglav Results?

[A.H.Black]

I have checked USFSA and ISU and not results are up. Does anyone know anything? Is there an official site?

[GEM21]

The reason there are no results yet is because the competition isn't starting for almost two weeks. It runs April 10 - 13, 2003.

Perhaps you are thinking of the Gardena Spring Trophy which took place this week in Italy?

Go USA!

[bbtano]

Who Hoooo! Way to go Katy! :) Good luck in the free skate! :D

[Trillian]

Congrats to Jessica Houston, and great job for all three U.S. girls! I'd guess by the marks that most of the top skaters were pretty much clean, so if they're all doing comparable elements, it doesn't surprise me that Jessica came out on top--she has very good basics and spins. In the long, jump difficulty might be more of a factor with Meissner's 3lutz. :)

[A.H.Black]

Does anyone know anything about Michelle Cantu from Mexico. I think that's the highest placement I have seen for a Mexican skater in an international competiton of any size.

Just one thing--in addition to the (relatively) strong placement here, last summer she became the first Mexican competitor to win a medal on the North American Challenge Series. She finished third at the event in Ontario, right behind Sandra Rucker and Lindsey Wilson of the USA (and ahead of Terra Findlay, who placed a few spots higher in the short here). That was a big step for Mexican skating IMO.

I'm not sure how old she is, but since she didn't compete on the JGP this season despite her strong NACS showing, she may not be any older than 13. I would guess we can expect to see her internationally next season, though, assuming she'll be old enough then. Who knows--maybe she'll wind up being Mexico's first major international competitor.

I also wonder if she's any relation (younger sister, perhaps?) of Ana Cecelia Cantu, who's been one of Mexico's better international junior competitors.

Michele and Ana are sisters. Michele is either 14 or just turned 15. As best as I remember, they moved to CT this past year to train in Simsbury with Galina and are going to private school (Ethel Walker I think) there.

[Trillian]

Hey, if the Cantu sisters train in Connecticut, I'll have to keep an eye out for them at some local summer competitions! Thanks for the info. :)

The Cantu sisters have competed at NACs for the last 2 years. I would guess Michelle would continue to do so. I know a couple of years ago she participated in more than one at the Novice level.

Top three ordinals were all split between the three U.S. entries--good job to all of them! Fabulous showing for Michele Cantu; I don't think I've ever seen a Mexican skater finish in the top half of any international field before. I hope we see her on the JGP this fall.

[missflick]

Well, the US ladies finally got their sweep.:lol:
And congrats to Kevin Reynolds, who won novice boys! He even got 5.1s8O

Way to go Jordan! All first place ordinals and all of his scores were in the 5's. :) Good showing for all of the North Americans with all 5 occupying the top 5 spots. :)

Any reports on what was landed?

[Trillian]

No surprise for Jordan, but good for him anyway. The scores indicate that he probably skated cleanly or close to it. Nice showing for Jason Wong; I hope he can hang onto a medal in the long!

More about Michele- she is 15 years old, so she was able to compete on the Junior Grand Prix this fall but apparently the Mexican Federation wanted her to stick with novice events. She was originally listed to go to Junior Worlds, but it was changed when the Federation (which suggested she stay novice), said that she would need a junior international event before going there, so her older sister Ana Cecilia went to both Junior & Senior Worlds.

congrats to both of the Canadian Pairs!! Hope Jericho and Sean can pull up in their freeskate, i would love to see both of the Canadian teams in the medals!

[skatetwo]

Terra Findlay from Canada was on MSN. She was very down on herself. She knew she could have skated better. But, keep your chin up Terra you are doing great. She was the youngest out of the Novice at Triglov (12). She has had a great year, doing both pairs (1st year) and singles. To come 6th at your 1st International Development with not even your best skates is a great start. It was good experience for her. I skate with Terra sometimes and know that this will make her even more determined. I wonder if she will do a NACS in singles or in pairs?

Does anyone have information on how the Canadian competitors skated?

I found that surname/country abbreviation juxtaposition humorous, as immature as it may be. :D

[PointBleu]

Florence used to skate for France until this year when she switched for Luxembourg. She trains in Luxembourg City under Nicolas Osseland (who used to skate with Sabrina Lafrançois)

But I must confess it is a little bit funny... ;)

[Giggles]

First off, I am a HUGE Terra fan.

It is my understanding that Terra and her partner John are hoping for a North American Challenge Skate in the Junior Pairs event as well as Junior Grand Prix assisgments. I believe he is only eligible for one more year. I am thinking they will get JGP because they are now the 2nd or 3rd ranked team in the Junior ranks due to age restrictions and break-ups.

As of Terra, how could they not give her a North American Challenge Skate herself??? She was the highest ranked Canadian skater at the Thunder Bay event last year. She has proven herself this year by placing 3rd in Novice. Also, her development event seemed to have more competition than the other development event the gold and silver medallists went to. (By this I mean there were 3 Americans in her event and no Amercians in the other event if I recall correctly.)

Just my opinion.

[becca]

Liz apparently skated well but missed her 3toe (a new jump for her). Sorry, that's all I know.

[becca]

I talked to Eric today and he said that he put his hand down on his 3flip in the short and skated a clean long. It must have been a pretty strong mens competition.

[SPICYMEATBALL]

There is a post on Unseen skaters that the winning Junior Man landed
two 3-3 combos and a 3A in the free skate.Since the 9th place finisher from this years Junior Worlds (Daniel D' Inca) placed fourth overall I would say that this was a very strong competition in comparison to the other minor ISU spring comps.
