I had the pleasure to watch Bebe and Danille Khale training today. I thought that you guys would like to hear the news.
Bebe looks GREAT. I saw her landing a few easy triples and a lot of double axels. She looks fit and was working on her short program. I love her spiral sequnce, it looks like it would be given a high level and her extensioins and back positions are really much better. very impressed there. Her spins always look good so really no news there.
Danille on the other hand is still very far from being at competitive level IMHO. the hardest jump I sawher attempt was a double axel and she only skated one sesioin to the other elite skater's two or three. she had some problems on her doubles and run through her rach 2 program which looks pretty godd, but she didn't do any of the jumps... nice spin.... but she seemed frusrated and not really at senior level.
there was a young man there....he must be sombody... landed some REALLY good triple axel-triple toe combos short hair, he looks rather short too... he had a flamenco program that was really interesting.
Nick LaRoche looked pretty good, he did some double axels and doubles... he was also coaching during the open sessions.
