Thanks, macy, for your videos (as well as for last year's Skate Detroit videos! :)) - I posted your link to Miller's above (#35) and look forward to watching Gold's and Jiang's when you get them uploaded.

Thanks for posting Kaetlyn Osmond's video links, Buglady!

Does anybody know jump content of this summer's Gracie Gold FS?
My hearsay info is that Gold's Final round FS jumps at Skate Detroit were 3Lz+3T, 3F+half loop+3S combo, 2A, 3Lo, 2A step out [intended 3rd combo, maybe a 3-jump one?], 2Lz [intended triple], 3F.

Happy to see this Senior highlights article from Golden Skate! http://www.goldenskate.com/2012/07/2012-skate-detroit-senior-highlights/

Thank you very much.
If intended 2Lz - 2A+3T, she jumped it at National.
If intended 3Lz - 2A+2(T? Lo?).

Definitely it's intended as another 3Lz, not a 2Lz (if you are doing a double anything intentionally, it's probably an Axel as a 2Lz is only worth 1.9 points). The 2A should have been 2A+2T+2Lo (right now). I believe the 3F+1/2Lo+3T is intended to eventually be 3F+1/2Lo+3S. Program is VERY new still, so it's not settled completely yet nor is it second nature like last year's so you have performed it a "million" times yet. Skate Detroit was her first outing with it competitively, so pacing and where the rough spots are competitively are probably now identified.

Great jumps, this girl is a monster.
Yes, monster, but not a perfect female skating.

Very good jumps.
But she still needs a good choreographer and somebody who will tell her "You MUST NOT touch your panties on ice!"

She is one of my loved skaters and I feel that it's not good, if her really great capabilities are limited by poor choreography.

There are a lot of skaters who pull the pants on their dress down when they go to their start position. It becomes a habit like putting your right skate on first. I do agree it IS distracting, though!

It's part of the presentation process. You adjust your pants, tighten your ponytail, and then take your start position. Skating 101! :biggrin:

It depends on the skater and the hairdo! LOL! Some skaters' pants fit a little better than others on their dresses (I am talking about you, Denise Bielman who wore almost the equivalent of a thong and you, Carolina Kostner, who had a bad wedgie one year) so they don't have to tug on them. ;)

I don't know..I don't think it's boring ( I'm imagining it with more miles on it ) There are some very nice transitions and choreographic details..and it's not version of Bohemian rhapsody that we've heard a lot of. ( I was afraid I would be bored when I first learned their music choice )

True. More miles on it could make it something interestin
