Yes, she was trying that sequence (it is not a combination) during the Grand Prix in the 2002-2003 season, but she never managed to land it in a GP event. She fell on the first jump in the sequence at the 2003 Nationals FS, and I believe that was the last time she attempted it. It's interesting that she was able to land it at cheesefests, but not at events that counted.
I just love how the bar gets set up differently and higher every time Sasha's performance is concern.
At first it's how many times in all he landed a 3/3, then if she execued it at the pro/am, it doesn't even count. And if it's a sequence, it's not really a combo, so it doesn't count either. And oh, she never delivers 2 clean back to back skates, but if she did it at Worlds, it was in the QR, so it's not a "real" LP, so she again failed to deliver clean FP; and if actually she just skated one at Marshalls, than it was a "cheesefest" and shouldn't be counted.
Anyway, my point was that just like Arakawa nowadays, Sasha have tried 3/3 combos (and sequences) all through the past season (with different degree of success).
