Well, nobody knows better than Alaine what Gabby's going through. So thrilled for Alaine. Nobody was even close for her today And what an amazing result for Aurora Cotop. A little surprised Gabby finished behind even Larkyn, but looking at it, Larkyn did have some jumps where she would have gotten positive GOE, and I don't think Gabby had any.
This was not what I expected in a million years. Exciting, though.
I really hope this doesn't set Gabby back in her recovery, both physically and mentally. Like I said in another post. Obviously Skate Canada should still send her to worlds. I'd send her to 4CC, too, to get another competition under her belt, as long as she feels ready. This felt too soon — not necessarily getting out to compete, but getting out to compete at such a big competition, where there were so many expectations.
