Question for Axel experts

[Mathman]

Hey, I just noticed that Rachael Flatt did this seqence at U.S. Nationals.

Her three multiple-jump elements were

3Lz+3T
3F+2T+2Lo
2A+2A seq.

Yes, I've seen the 2A+2A sequence quite a bit. At 2007 U.S. Nationals, coach Tom Zakrajsek had 3 of his girls (Rachael Flatt and 2 juniors, Alexe Gilles and Chaochih Liu) do the 2A+2A sequence. It was the second-to-last jump in Flatt's free skate, and with a basemark of 5.81 and +GOE, she received 6.67 points for it. The sequence has a 5.28 basemark if done in the first half of the FS with 0 GOE.
