I will remember Alaine.... as the first Canadian girl to show up with a 3lz-3toe... Correct me if I am wrong... I thought back then... finally, Canadian ladies are reaching the others !!! However, that feeling started to erode quickly in the last few years. In any case, I was lucky to see Alaine skate live : huge huge huge huge jumps, amazing speed... Fearless. Incredibly weird but interesting spins Loved these spins.
I thought she had already retired. I guess, she was keeping her options open. I met one of her coaches once at an event, and Alaine came to sit next to her for a while. I am not the kind to ask for autographs or to impose my presence but it was nice to see her from that close and to hear her conversation. Very nice, genuine, down to Earth human. Bravo for your career and for who you are <3
