That is not allowed; according to Eteri's Choreo 101 handbook for Alina's programmes by Daniil:"§6.1 No Alina Bauer should be longer than 0.5 sec to keep the audience on the anticipation diet till proper competition comes along, for additional shock value PCS points."
It's getting ridiculous... Eteri camp's choreographic sequences are consistently half arsed... why not do a different kind of spiral instead? I got into figure skating because of Lipnitskaya and my interest was sustained by Eteri skaters, but I feel like they're getting lazy and sloppy artistically. Benoit Richaud for a few seasons has been aping the Eteri camp's style and at this point I'd rather watch most of his programs than watch the programs coming from Eteri's camp.
Besides doing something else with the 2nd half of the choreographic sequence, I'd really like a Russian split jump done during the accent after her 3Lz and before her 3F+2T+2Lo in the 2nd half. https://youtu.be/aG6FYV_u460?t=155
[edit]
The comment above is in general about Eteri's camp... they've done an OK job with Alina but not getting a level 4 on the step sequence is worrying and there's still room to polish things and it seems like they don't care about polishing things there. Long program composition in general I find weak with Eteri's camp.
so nice to see Alina so happy and carefree at a competition.
