For me, watching Marin Honda skating is like walking this way.
When she's on, she is such a joy to watch... Her skating is so fluent, light, her flow out of the jumps so perfectly integrated in the program, landings so soft and elegant, you forgot it's a sporting competition you're following - it all becomes an art. Art of joy and beauty. :luv17:

You are totally correct. On the senior circuit next season her scores will soar and soar - I can just see the British Eurosport guys drooling over her right now. Of course she has to land her jumps but that's the same for everybody.
Re Wakaba's jumps (later posts), huge jumps = Triple Axel? There is scope for a big jumper who's prepared to go for it to get in the medal mix at next years Olympics. You only have to look at Liza T's scores from 2014-15 to see 225 is possible (SP = 77 at worlds, Europeans LP 141 without 3A), and her PCS was only high 60s.
