It's Official, Jenny Kirk chooses Frank Carroll

I really hope this pairing works out. Jenny is such a wonderful
skater. Working with Frank and Lori, I can't wait to see what
type of programs they come up with. :)

I knew it. Frank and Lori.....I wonder if they're trying to create another "wonderkin" skater. Good luck to you, Jenny, you've had some amazing coaches........42
 
I really have a good feeling about this new relationship... and I think lori is brilliant jenny will shine with better material to work with!!!
 
I remember feeling so excited when Angela chose Frank....but, I won't be a nay sayer! Jenny is one of those skaters that I genuinely want to see succeed. She tries so hard and has been through so much. Lori Nichol should do wonders for her.
 
I wonder if she's going to be living in El Segundo as well. If I see her and/or her sister in the neighborhood, I'll give them a thumb's up.​
 
I wonder if they're trying to create another "wonderkin" skaterI never know if these kinda posts are digs or not. At any rate, at 20 Jenny is well past "wonderkin" status.
 
I am not that thrilled with Lori as Jenny's choreographer. I liked Jenny best in her Chicago number and that is about as far from Lori Nichol's style as you can get. However, I hope this works for Jenny and wish her the best of luck.

How so?

Although Jenny's Chicago SP was a lot of fun, it wasn't very "chicago" IMHO. Much more Thouroughly Modern Milly, bordering on being too cute. If I had to pick anyone else's programs who it reminded me of, I'd have to go with S&P's Jalouse and Love Story, both nice fun programs that bordered on being too cute.
 
I think that Lori Nichol might actually be excellent for Kirk in this phase of her skating. Unfortunately I did not save it, but I remember that one of our commentars had a lot to comment on which was lacking in Kirk´s presentation/skating. It was needing polishing, and Lori Nichol would be good in that. Also I can see that FC will be good for her!

Berthe.........I think you've read enough of my posts in the past to know that I don't "dig" at skaters, especially if they're trying to improve on the natural talents that they already have. I was thinking more of Frank and his attempts to make Linda F. and Chris B. and others into skaters that have it all, grace, athletic ability, and public charisma. It seems lately that all roads lead to "Frank", not a bad thing by any means. I only have good thoughts for Jenny.............42
 
"Kirk made the move from Detroit, Mich., to Hermosa Beach, Calif., earlier in the week."​

How 'bout that? Jenny and Michelle are now neighbors. Hermosa Beach is right next to Manhattan Beach.​
 
I confess that I have a soft spot for Jenny and hope that she does well.
That said, I think she really needs to find a coach that she can "settle in" with this season. It's the year before the Olympics, and I think she needs to find a coach who will give her what she needs *this* year. Best of luck to her, at any rate.

True, which is why I didn't think you were having a "dig". It's just that you said that Lori was opposite of "chicago" in style, and I think it's very much her style. You didn't actually answer my question.
:laugh:

She's also neighbors with Amber Corwin since she also lives in Hermosa. :)
 
No problem, Berthe........but I think it was Doris who made the "Chicago" comment.........42
