Her performance in today's ladies competition Ulla characterized by the following : '' My both runs were good. So the quality of the ice get slower after every run and I could not produce a better time, as well as I would like . If you ask where to start easier - juniors, or seniors, where this year I started more, then I will say that it does not matter. The competition is competition. The following week and European Championship for adults, which will be held in Sigulda, I look positively and with determination to prove myself . ''
