1st place after the short in Zagreb
This week is organized the 35th Golden Spin of Zagreb in the capital of Croatia. Gheorghe is leading after today's short program. He landed the 3a-2toe combo,
but touched with his hand the ice after the 3axel. The 3lutz went great, and he had no problem with the 2axel.
We wish the same succes and good luck for the free on Friday!
