Meet Lia Cho: the 12 year old taking the Canadian figure skating world by storm

[@andygrenn680]

Lia has one huge advantage going for her. She’ll only get better as years go by…

Congratulations

Incredible to do that so young.. though super weird putting her in a women's category when she is literally a girl / child.

[@TheElectriciD]

They literally said in the video that she can't compete in the women's category until she is 17.

[@Hathur]

@@TheElectriciD I know, but early in the video they're comparing her to the women's category - NOT juniors category. It's a nonsensical comparison, beyond the fact it's extremely rare for a junior to be able to perform the maneuver.

[@TheElectriciD]

​@@HathurThey are not referring to her in that part. Previously even the women were not making jumps that she is making at 12.

[@truevoice1002]

In Figure Skating categories don't really go by age by rather by skill level. So there are 18+ year olds in the Junior Category. However, in the last couple years they have increased the minimum age to compete in the Senior Level and internationally because of what was happening with the exploitation of young russian skaters. So prior to that there were 15 year olds competing in the Senior circuit. Which is why it's a 'women's' category
