I was disappointed by Gold. It seemed to me that her FS choreography has been simplified since the GP. Or maybe Carroll made her move 'softer' when that music is really big and powerful and strong movements were very appropriate. She did very well on the jump front but I expected a bit more from her performance.
It's all relative. I feel she is much more controlled and paced (i.e. knows what she is doing) compared to last season, but Carroll hasn't been able to teach her to understand and express music. It looked to me to be a total act and she couldn't even do her final pose right. She skated great and should end with a bang instead of the limp wristed, confused, hesitant pose she was going for.
