I feel like Carolina's going to lose some levels on those spins...is it me or did she not do the needed rotations on them?'

ETA: She doesn't seem too happy about that performance....

Yeah it did. I think she knew it too, because she made a sound as she was watching the replay.

How did Carolina do? Couldn't see anything..

I loved Carolina during the Worlds LP, but this SP is not nice. I did not like the arms flailing. Good on her for the triple triple!

My feed was terrible too so I stopped watching. So happy for Alissa and kudos to Caroline Z for much improved skating.

Thanks so much!! Wow that was crazy fast.

People, you really need to stop doubting Alissa. She's improving her jump technique. She's upping her technical game. She's bringing back the salchow. She's conquering her nerves. She's fine. She's awesome, she's graceful and lovely and will win worlds.

So there.

Also, Carolina was terrific despite the error in the step sequence. Love that she went for the triple triple. 60.23

Who would have thought Caroline and Joelle would do that well, So happy for them

My top 2 picks...happy for Alissa and Carolina.

**museksk8r** · 10-23-2011, 12:41 AM

I'm so glad the top 2 are Alissa and Carolina because they are clearly the class of this field. Can't wait to watch their performances and best of luck to them in the LP!

Thanks for the link. That particular "La Vie en Rose" starts out with music from "Sabrina" - the Harrison Ford, Julia Ormond version. I like the role for Alissa. She has Audrey Hepburn's looks (particularly the neck) and Julia Ormond's reserved charm.

Haruka Imai got an underrotation on the 2A, of all things. I also don't get all the minuses next to the loop...what was wrong with it? I thought it deserved +GOE
