stefanbg 155 Posted March 10, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2018 (edited) 13 year old Aleksandra Trusova becomes the first female skater to land clean a quadruple toe loop. She is also the first skater to land successfully two quadruple jumps within the same routine and the youngest to land a quadruple jump. Furthermore, Aleksandra is only the second female to successfully land a quadruple jump after Miki Ando. Way to go Aleksandra!

Her technical score was only... 11 points higher than Zagitova's gold medal routine. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted March 10, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 10, 2018 But then again, there are A LOT of parameters that will decide her junior-senior career transition. Growth spur for example can change everything (it often does for such skaters), and even Zagitova can still "disappear" because of that... Only time will tell. stefanbg 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if she could maintain the same difficulty when she ages up for Beijing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still, apparently the 3rd best in the all-time free skate ranking and 5th in the all-time overall ranking...not bad, when you're 13 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!
