Akiko was brutalized by having a triple salchow downgraded. Unlike Laura, who actually popped her triple salchow into a double. COP: it's got problems.
hey, I really like this Makarova. While Leonova is the "new Slutskaya", Ksenia reminds me quite a bit of Butyrskaya - (though each of these 2 I think will have the strength and talent to develop thier own styles.)
