I disagree. She is a lovely skater with a great figure...but not a figure that is in anyway helpful towards landing jumps. She's lost all her jumps thanks to the puberty monster. The only triple she rotated was the 3T.
I think Dobbs is a great skater too, not so sure about this music choice however as Kwan was so legendary with it and then to skate in the same color blue dress maybe not the best idea but she is skating well to the music. Just to hard to measure up to the kwan tho.
Oh and the spiral is in just bout the same timing and some of the same footwork in the same place as kwan.:sheesh:

Joshi from Sweden has one of the best long classic glides into her gorgeous opening 3L! But fell on 2nd one. Good comeback with the nice & high 3R, and did a 3/2/2 combo. (last part of it looked to be UR). And a little shakey on the rest of her jumps. Also, it looked like her 2A was slightly twofooted & possibly UR and then turns in between into 2T. Nice job, nice job. 
Fall on one triple jump by Leonova from Russia, shakey landings on most, my favorite part is where she pretends to laugh. 
She has such a frenetic quality to her skating that it's hard for me to appreciate the moves that she does because they are over in a blink of an eye & then she's on to something else.

I've decided not to keep track of any jumps, just appreciate the skating from here on in. Geng from China is my favorite thus far in terms of overall package, such a heartbreakingly beautiful exquiste skater ~ best flexibility out there which she uses to great advantage in the spirals and also the donut spin, etc. ~ just a gorgeous piece, music, skater, choreography all blended. Only fell on the 3S jump, but gorgeous 3L & 3F to start the program, and near the end she did a FAB 2A/2A combo! 
Some shakey landings on jumps, but not much. Also hate the skycam which interferred with my watching her 3/2 combo.
GREAT JOB, GREAT JOB!

Go Miki!
Geng has potential and nice toe jumps, but she is SLOW. She was absolutely crawling. Not much in the way of expression of musicality yet, either.
Miki giving a jumping clinic so far - her jumps look enormous - but she's playing it safe and the program is very empty.

Miki should easily go into 1place, now that's what a senior ladies program should look like imho! Loved everything about it ~ skater, jumps, music, choreography, dress ~ took her time on each & every element so the viewer could appreciate it. No falls, gorgeous opening 3L/2R combo., halfway through did 3/2/2 combo., had as usual a nice high 3F, etc.
GOOOOOOOOOOO MIKI!!!!!!
