Judge 11th At Tayside Trophy

Dillon Judge has finished 11th in the Senior Men’s event at this weekend’s Tayside Trophy in Dundee, Scotland.

The two-time Irish champion got his short programme off to a positive start with a nice triple Lutz-double toe loop combination. However, he popped a subsequent triple flip into a double and then fell on the entry to a change foot camel spin. He received no credit for either element. He also fell on a double Axel. A change foot combination spin registered as Level 3 while both a step sequence and a flying sit spin were graded Level 2. A score of 37.27 points had him in 11th place overnight.

Judge got his free skating under way inauspiciuusly with a fall on a triple flip. He bounced back with a cleanly landed solo triple Lutz with a double Lutz-double toe loop and a Level 2 flying sit spin to follow. He stumbled out of a triple toe loop and was given a Level 1 for change foot camel spin. He nailed a triple Salchow, but slipped to the ice during a step sequence. He closed out his performance with a Level 3 change foot combination spin. He scored 74.16 points which gave him a total of 111.43 points.
