Here is my "I don't get Caroline Zhang" thread since obviously iloveaxel can't handle other opinions in its own threads.
What is the big deal about Caroline Zhang? Yeah, she's bendy, we get it, sot beating us over the head with it. Yes, she lands her jumps but her technique is odd and could she POSSIBLY flutz just a little more, please? And telegraph it a bit longer while she's at it. That would be great. She chooses the same type of music all the time which shows how unversatile she really is, she has only one style of skating: slow and careful. As for expression, she has as much as a blank chalkboard. All that fist clenching and arm flinging doesn't really tell a story. And to be just a little superficial, has she ever heard of hairspray? Of hair gel? Even with a bun, her hair is whipping all over the place when she skates, and she looks a mess.
No, I really don't have Caroline THAT much, but I'm sick of the hype already. She does have some great qualities, but she also has a LOOOOOOOONG way to go to become the kind of skater people are saying she is, and she might never make it at all. Remember, she WILL hit puberty and it may not be pretty. Thats all I'm saying.
