Strong jumps except for the near-fall on one of them. Courtney can jump and has great speed but still has a ways to go in the in-betweens. She's in 1st place for now.
 
Her shoulders look so broad with that dress. But really nice jumps, especially that 3Lo
 
Solid skate by Courtney - great jumps and impressive speed! However, I felt like she wasn't listening to her music at all - skating through, rather than skating to, the music. If you muted it, you wouldn't have any idea what the program was.

I agree with those who disliked her costume. The bodice/skirt are fine, but those sleeves are awful - They make her look incredibly broad, and I'm sure she's quite tiny in person. Her make-up and hair are really nice though.
 
WOW, Courtney, she looks so fast and powerful, I would love to watch her in live someday. Her jumps so soooo beautiful :love:

Agree with those who say when she jumps well it's a beautiful thing to behold. Agree also that she has a long way to go on the in-betweens, but I do see striking improvement from last season. I actually liked this program!
