I hate to say it but Caroline looked mediocre. Even some of her spins were slow. Her pearl either wasn't there or flashed by so fast that I couldn't even see it. Has she destroyed her back?
It's sad. She had so much promise. I don't think she's going to regain her former glory. Unless something big changes.
I like your positive outlook.Originally Posted by ForgetMyUserName
Looks like tears in the kiss-n-cry. Two mistakes.
Big cut on her left palm. She moves into 6th behind Alyssa.
49... that's not good.
49.94
OUCH.
I hope someone gets close to Nagasu and Flatt...
"There's always next year" - Caroline
That's the right attitude
I think she said "there's always next year"
49.94, 6th place. OUCH!
Just an observation of her past performances
Caroline Zhang
Black bodice, red skirt
3Flip/turn/2T
Steps into 3Loop - fall (she landed a nice one in the warm-up)
Step sequence
Flying back sit spin - a bit slow going in, seems like she's given up at this point
2Axel - landed, but slow going in
spiral sequence
combo spin
layback
very disappointed in K&C, but manages to smile while waiting for scores. Quite a long wait....
Technical Elements - 25.74
Program Components - 25.20
Deduction - 1.00
Total - 49.94
6th place behind Alexe
She just said "there's always next year." It's true. She's only 16. ... ouch! that score!
49.94. Ouch!!
How do you get away from skating and work on her techniques and speed??
She's still warming up backstage, running around. She looks fabulous doing that though.
OK, we take a break.
