Because an underrated +3T with a negative GOE and a high risk of a fall is worth less than a clean +2T
You have given her your good taste.

I like Michelle's style - both her program and her dress. A shame about the jumps but still pretty impressive considering she was a last-minute sub.

Shame about the loop but otherwise Michelle did great especially how last minute she got subbed in

You know, I found it interesting during the pairs SP when Ben and Ashley said it was better for the pairs team to only attempt double SBS jumps whereas I always thought it was better to attempt the triple with full rotation and take the fall. Planning a double just seems to be the easy way out and you’re never going to challenge for a podium place in a major international if you avoid taking risks and dumb down your difficulty.

I did too! My dream is that they'll both love watching it and we can do a girls trip to worlds someday.

for a lot of these skaters, Nationals is their end goal every season. They know they won't get international assignments, because the US has a very deep field and they aren't quite at the same level as the other skaters. They spend their fall season working to qualify for Nationals through the Sectionals program. This is their version of Worlds, this is what they've spent their whole lives training for, and so they'd rather put out a clean program that they feel proud of rather than a messy downgraded 3T.

That would be so fun! My mom won't go, says it is too expensive.
