Thanks for the link, beautifully skated exhibition program to Hallelujah.

I have been a long time fan of Caro, I have said it before that for me Caro is a goddess on ice and that about sums up how I feel about her skating.

I will be rooting for her at Europeans and Worlds, Gold of course.

Thanks for the link. She's lovely! Though I'm rooting for Mao, if Carolina wins, I wouldn't be distressed at all. She's a marvelous presence on the ice, and it's so lovely to see someone skating to Mozart so exquisitely. Besides just her obvious strong points of beautiful lightness and grace, I'm happy to see someone doing so well who's (a) taller than a lady skater is "supposed" to be and (b) older than the typical skater at the peak of her powers. Good for you, Carolina! I hope you sustain this level of excellence and even improve.

As a long-time admirer of Carolina & her skating, it's great to see her finally coming into her own after all these years, can't wait for Worlds! :cool:

It took me a little effort to warm up to her - but posters here (or that used to be here, I'm thinking about doggiegirl and Realtorgirl and a few others and I don't remember exactly who at the moment) really explained well what was great about Carolina's skating to help me see past 'the coltish' qualities to what here many talents were. I have really enjoyed her as a result, and am particularly enchanted with how she has come together as a consistent competitor with really intriguing, to me, programs, especially this year. I'll be rooting for her at Worlds!
