Super Sato takes junior crown Shun Sato staked his claim to be Hanyu's successor in the hearts of Japanese skating fans with a scintillating performance to win the Junior Grand Prix Final. The 15-year-old landed a quad Lutz for starters and then a mighty quad toe loop and a triple Axel in a stunning skate. His score of 177.86 was just one point shy of Aymoz's senior bronze medal free skate and smashed the previous world record set by Russia's Daniil Samsonov at this year's JGP Poland by over 14 points. Sato's total of 255.11 also surpassed Samsonov's best from Gdansk and secured him gold from short program winner Andrei Mozalev. Samsonov, trained in Moscow by Eteri Tutberidze, took third as Russia filled the lower two spots on the podium. But all the talk afterwards was about Sato who came into the competition as the less renowned of the two Japanese with Yuma Kagiyama, who finished fourth, the national junior champion. Interviewed in front of the crowd, he said, "I was a little bit nervous before the free skate, but once I was on the ice I felt very calm and I was able to skate the way I wanted." After revealing that Hanyu was his role model, he said pandas were his favourite animals so maybe we could soon see the black and white bears raining down onto the ice in major competitions. Speaking in the mixed zone, Sato explained that watching Hanyu in the senior competition helped him in his skate: "I watched Yuzuru’s quad Lutz and it looked so effortless. I watched over and over again. Watching Yuzuru’s Lutz helped me not to force it too much."

The future is bright! Team Tutberidze has another talent to take on the world in the shape of Kamila Valieva. She took gold and training partner Daria Usacheva, also 13 years old, bronze with US national champion Alysa Liu splitting the Moscow-based pair. Liu led after the short program but youthful exuberance got the better of her in the free skate as she attempted two quad Lutzes and two triple Axels, failing to land any of them successfully. A recent injury stopped Valieva attempting her planned quad toe loop, but she managed to secure victory having been fourth after the short. Her total score of 207.47 was just nine points behind Rika Kihira's fourth in the senior competition. Valieva's win made it 10 consecutive triumphs for Russia in the ladies' Junior Grand Prix Final, and an incredible six in a row for Team Tutberidze.
