Liu would be the best one to send to Nebelhorn regardless.

Upon first viewing, the triple axel looks clean and a lot stronger than what she had been landing as a junior. Looks more effortless and looks like it has more height. The quad lutz looks more questionable, but considering the potato quality of the videos, it's hard to really judge.

I keep rewatching the Quad and am struggling to see how it's downgraded. That would be called clean at US Nats.

Can we only send 1 skater to Nebelhorn?

Plot twist: Alysa wins the olympics 
I don't remember where I saw this so take this with a grain of salt, but I believe so. Or maybe it was that only one skater can try for qualification? Either way I don't think we can send multiple skaters to try to confirm the one Olympic spot.

You may have read the discussion of countries' slots at Nebelhorn in this thread:
Nebelhorn Trophy announcement
The German Eislauf Union has presented the announcement document regarding the Nebelhorn Trophy Oberstdorf whch includes the (last spots of the) qualification for the Olympic Winter Games. https://eislauf-union.de/files/user...021_OWGQualifyingCompetition_Announcement.pdf There is rather...
The US cannot send multiple skaters to qualify for the Olympic spot. They must designate one of the ladies in advance. Initially, only one skater from the US can even go, but if slots are "freed", that could change.

3A is fully clean, with flow, power, beautiful rotation and speed. Plus her arms and body position look great. There is even a hint of joyfulness when she lands it.
People, 4lz looks great for being June/the beginning of Summer. She will obviously keep working on polishing the rotations and all but this is an amazing start. I'm a bit fed up with instagram and another site being all crazy supportive when another 11 y/o lands a "quad" and yet we can't support our own girl with a great work-in-progress 4Lz. Alysa has it and I know she will do what has to be done when the time comes.

Agreed. Americans who should be supporting her are nitpicking the rotations on a freaking Quadruple Lutz when it's only June. The new seaon is months away. That quad is incredible given how she struggled earlier this year.
With the rate Alysa has been developing she'll be landing 4Lz+3T by August.

I agree. Even if Amber gets her 3A (Which I would love) We don't have any ladies who can land a quad of ANY kind, Much less a Lutz. She needs to be applauded
