I agree with raising the age limit in seniors to 17 though I doubt if it will ever pass. Most skaters hit that puberty growth spurt between 15-17 years old. I think raising the age to 17 helps to level the field on both sides. It lessens the physical advantages someone who is smaller and lighter has over someone who is bigger and heavier, but it also allows that younger skater more time to develop their skill and style and gain experience. Again, I doubt if it will pass but I'd welcome it...
I don't agree with keep judges anonymous until after the competition. Why protect the judges from the stank eye stares from the skaters and coaches after the marks? Keep that same energy--if you put down that mark, stand by it...
Yes, dump the antiquated term "ladies" and just say women. This is waaaaay overdue...
PLEASE split the panel of judges. I've said for a long time there should be a separate technical and components panel...
