Bad luck for the women discus throwers , they had the wind from the back . It would have probably added 2-3m to the performances with a "good front discus wind". Anyways the German junior throwers are well ahead of the rest of the year's rankings . Shanice CRAFT , won by a near 5m margin with her 1st 58,30m attempt and will be certainly one of the favorite , if not THE favorite of the event at the coming world junior champs in Barcelona. Second was the very aggressive thrower from Thailand Insang SUBENRAT and third came the big New Zealander Siositina HAKEAI who has made this year some necessary technical progresses on the basics of the throw 2011 . She is now better in control of her body weight and consistently throwing over 50m with a possible 55m to be delivered anytime . German Kristin PUDENZ was 4th with just over 50m (50,28m) . She has the morphology of a discus thrower but is still "soft". Most of the German girls were really 10cm taller than the other competitors . In the discus throw , it certainly helps if you have the according technique ! New Zeland was happy to have another thrower in the top 6 . Merewarihi VAKA and Australia was also well represented with Keshia Mc GRATH-VOLAU 49,26m 5th . Some people may think that one can already prepare 3 german flags in Barcelona for the discus women ceremony , but a surprise is always possible. DP
