Makrova needs a lutz. Or a flip done consistently. She nails short programs with her 3/3 of a triple toe her loop and her double axel but always goes down in LP's because of her lack of content. She needs content. She is in worse shape for the future than Leonova -who has the content but can be really inconsistent. Makarova has a great presence on the ice that continues to stand out. Makarova could be done after this years Russian nationals if Shelepen and Biryukova do better than her and Shelepen than moves to seniors.
