thanks for the article, its interesting to see she is going for 3T3T but it makes sense since her 3Lz3T called UR at nationals. at JGPS she was doing 3Lo2T and got 62.71 for her SP, that means if she can skate clean she can get around 65 which isnt that lower from evgenia's SB and i hope she can deliver national like FP there, seems like her training is going well so i am really hopefull for her to be on podium all the best luck to her

I think according to this article, Karen's attempt 3LO-3T, not 3t-3t. perhaps due to that lutz is the required solo jump for junior this year? 3lo-3t would be an interesting jump combo for Karen. wish her can nail it.

I think she is the favorite after American nationals. She has the it factor and good technique. I see gold at juniors.

According to this, she is doing 3T-3T not 3Lo-3T.

I wonder why she did the 3Lo-2T at the junior grand prix. If she had done a 3T-3T cleanly in her SP she would have made the JGP Final.
