Denise did a great job coaching Bradie. While I hope she continues to improve, it's possible her new team won't be able to product the same results for her. There are skaters like Amber and a few others who can threaten Bradie's World/Olympic spot if she fails to improve.
I think Bradie is quite self motivated and that she is unlikely to regress (as long as she doesn't get injured). Will she get a 3A? That is harder to speculate on, but she does rotate quickly and her jumps are quite high.
In regards to Amber, I think we need to see her perform her programs in competition before determining that she will be a threat to Bradie or anyone else. I really enjoy her skating, but she has always struggled to produce clean programs in competition. She has always been a talented jumper, but her results have not reflected that. I hope that she has overcome her issues with inconsistency, but at the moment, I wouldn't jump to any conclusions.
