Needs more speed. And she hardly does any transitions. Just going through the motions...

And the fact that this music is so passionate really highlights her lack of expression. Ick. I'd hoped for more than this after last year's nats. Jump landings all looked a bit scratchy to me, too.

Late joining the party. Missed Zhang's skate. Sounds grim and the PCS is down in novice-junior level now. She just doesn't belong on the GP anymore. Sounds harsh but there you have it.
