RIskatingfan said:I have to say I find it a little strange that one person from the USFSA would know more about COP than Tarasova's team, Weir and his coach all together. But that's OK, I suppose not everything can come out perfectly all the time. Still, Tarasova is undoubtedly one of the coaches who better knows how to work with COP as her work with many skaters has shown. One only needs to check the protocols of Arakawa's programs from the past and current seasons, Goebel's programs this season, Weir's programs last season, even Cohen's very successful Malaguena and Swan Lake (that she then completely watered down With Robin Wagner for Worlds), just to name some examples.
I completely agree with this. TT has shown that she's very smart when it comes to COP. Who would of imagined that Goebel would have some of the highest levels on his elements, but he does. He has 2 L4 spins, all the rest are L3. I believe he only received one L1 element and it was a ftwk. seq. I kind of hope that Johnny skates his program the way TT originally choreographed and see if it works better.
