It is amazing to see the JR scores being higher again. There are
2 competitions going on this weekend. In Bratislava the winning
Lady scored just above 47 points. That would only have been 6th
place at the JGP. And Juniors actually have tougher mandatory
elements.   2. sequinsgalore      sequinsgalore Member      I
don't think juniors have harder mandatory elements (jr. ladies
can do all doubles in the sp, whereas sr. ladies have to do at
least two triples). It's just the the solo jump HAS to be the
lutz, so the top jr. ladies go for the hard triple lutz, whereas
seniors can also do the 3T, 3S...      But you can't compare
Senior B's with JGP's, as the field in Senior B's vary a LOT.
The JGP's are more even.      But remember last season: Adelina
Sotnikova had the highest score until the Grand Prix Final, I
believe. Junior ladies do tend to be better/more ambitious
jumpers than seniors
