Wakaba has clearer edge.personally I don't like her style, she is a bit labour on ice. But she is just 13 and has already a true lutz. It's an advantage over the Russian babies, you have to admit.
I think it's clear outside egde, judging from the angle of the skate.
Oh, I don't know about that - Mao didn't always have the kind of grace, elegance, lightness and expression she's shown in the last few years. Not that I'd say she was ever "bad" or anything, but even up until Vancouver I still considered her more "athletic" than "artistic".
I am not a fan of Mao, so it's only recently I start watching her programs when she was about 14-15 . She already showed the lightness and "artistic feelings" by that time. The commentators said something about her in junior words like: "She is a star already."
Kolomiets is ill and probably will not hane JGP Events. She is not at substitute list at last Event.
At first, let's not forget that Chen was the best of US Ladies skated at three Events, and I can't believe that Bradie Tennell (she will probably skate n Japan) will be better than Karen Chen, i.e. Karen Chen most probably is the best US Lady at JGP this season.
Yes.
On an entirely different note...in the kiss and cry, I think there should be a sign that says, 'keep your knees together' where they can see it when they sit down.
Young girls tend to forget about the camera in the kiss and cry and forget to close their legs.
I can see it's clearly outside edge by the angle of the skate, even in the 2nd picture.
Why should they do it in K&C when they don't do it on the ice
Thanks for you reply. I maintain my opinion. I think the repetition of elements, what really changes in the Medvedeva program from one season to another is the music, because until the steps are similar. And this has nothing to do with "ah this is her style, she is a ballerina." Aff:disapp:.'m Tired of seeing this layout program for "almost" all the Russian girls.
. See the example karen chen: Graceful lines, expressiveness and feeling (i think about this very difficult to see this in junior girls) and it sees itself compelled to try one or two 3-3 comb. is very sad to see a talent being swallowed by the robotic aspect of figure skating.
