2018 Worlds Ladies FS

Okay opening for Kaitlyn.

3fli-3toe, possibly 2 foot 2nd jump? 2 ax-3toe, step out. Looked very long, if that makes sense, on the 2ax, not enough 'up'.

3 lutz clean, if a bit tight. better than in short. here comes 3 loop...
 
Orser camp does not automatically mean she's going to do well. I mean, look at Nam. Personally I want Eun Soo to go there. I think there's enough Japanese experts in skating.

Nam was getting results, as soon as he grow up he started having troubles with his jumps, but in the same year he decided (I guess) to change coach

Nam is doing alot worse after he left Camp Orser. The skaters who left Orser never did significantly well after (e.g. Rippon, Nam).

I think Camp Orser has high probability of helping Higuchi out.
 
Ah, looks like Osmond just did the reversal here. Usually the first half's rock solid and second a struggle, this time it's the opposite.
 
3 loop PERFECT! Wow, best she's ever done. High, tight, smooth, amazing flow out. And also 3 flip - PERFECT. 3 Sa combo, BANG on! 2 axe, pulls it out! Nicely done so far, only error was step out on 3 toe. Flow and speed are top notch. She FLIES down the ice...
 
I like Osmond well enough as a skater but I don't find her interpretation of a black swan very convincing. She's not balletic enough to go the Oksana Baiul route, and doesn't commit to portraying madness and frantic energy.
