Lord of the Dance Black with one sleeve and dark red on skirt
High 3t2t / 3z2t at least I think it was a 3 – was being handed a sheet of paper with quotes / 3f / extremely fast layback with ok pos but travelled a long way / 3l over-rot and fell / 3s fell , too bad – she started out so good / flysit is nice / really nice 3z air pos was gorgeous / there seems to be a fair bit of kind of aimless skating around not doing much of anything including listening or moving to the music / 2a / cam spin to catch foot / and the last 20 seconds was step dancing on her toepicks in about a 20 foot long section of the ice – only time I really felt she was skating to the music.

Journey of Man bright hot pink with one shoulder
3zand I think 3t looked like too much rot for only a double / 2a / 3f right a near boards so couldn’t see feet to see if it was clean / ?? spin only saw the end upright pos / 3t both hands down / layback is slow and pos is soso / 2s / spirals are ok / 3t not great but held off putting hand down didn’t see if she did a 2nd jump after it / 3s tight on landing & bit wild but clean / flysit to nice-looking but slow catch foot / O ftwrk moves very well and is timed with music – on the simple side / 2l / combo spin to end /

Vanessa Mae Medley ending in Turandot peach with silver
Some nice movement to open and around for her 3f 3t 2l could have been a light touch-down on flip and think she had to hop to keep landing of loop – right a near boards and couldn’t see feet after take-off of the 1st jump / 3z came out forward / 3?? Think loop came out forward / I just missed a spin / inside out spiral is great / 2a 1/2l 3s is very nice / layback is much improved – they’ve worked on the pos / music is now turnadot and she did an ina in what I think is the same spot of the music as Shizuka / strt ftwrk was full of turns very nice / 2a turnout / flysit is good and then a forward scratch to end

Bolero Fantasy / Easta of Eden dark burgundy & pink underskirt
3? Think loop landed tight & bit wild free leg but clean / 3t2t tink clean but too close to near board / 2s / strt ftwrk to bolero is very imaginative and goes very well with music with decent amount of detail / 2a / flycam has good pos bit slow / now into East of Eden and some dancing & movement in place / 3s? didn’t really see it – my eyes are going J spirals are ok / 2f / upright spin with different stretched pos / nice ina into 2l / 2z / combo spin to end is ok /

Phantom of the Opera on Ice by Danova shiny black & red lots of illusion hard to describe
3z landed weird on toepick and stumbled out / 2f / popped loop to double / 3t2t / she seems to have quite the wrap on most of her jumps – I don’t remember this from when I’ve seen her before / some chor to slower section / 3f with a late hand down / nice upright spin / sal didn’t get off ice and she went sliding off her edge and almost into the boards / just missed a spin that I think ended in a catchfoot / loop popped to singl / 2a is good / O ftwrk goes with music but somehow seems disjointed / combo spin is good on front gets very slow on back
