好久没有小00的消息了,今天在论坛上看到网友贴的关于她的情况,所以转贴过来了 :
I had the pleasure of seeing miss zhang at a public session at the Toyota Sports Center this morning. This is the first time I saw her in person. She looks like she has grown since January, but is still very slender and just beautiful. She skates slower than most elite skaters, and very softly. She landed one 3/3 out of the three she tried. It really looks very good. Her 3 flip is no problem, it's the second jump, the toe that was giving her problems, even solo. I did not get to see any spins or spirals :( I saw her practicing her circular step sequence for Ave Maria.... very good and very lovely. She was wearing what I assume was her ave maria dress... it was dark blue looked sort of like an evening gown... with chiffon gathering across the front. Very nice...suits her. Her 3/2/2 is solid as a rock.
more info that I forgot yesterday. She still has that leg kick on her flip and lutz, especilly the flip. I think it's just one of those wonky habits some people develop and it will be really hard to let go. Personly it dosen't bother me at all. All her jumps, esp with flip and lutz look much higher than last year and she this great speed coming out of all her jumps. Landing double axels from a spead eagle, those look very good!
I say her again today working with the amazing Lori Nichol on her ave maria program. It is really a BEAUTIFUL program. The transitions are wonderful and Caroline is really holding her back up in her spirals this year. she look so mature for a girl of her age. She landed a lovely 3 loop-2 toe-2 loop. Her jumps look so easy. I hope she can skate like that at the grand prix and nationals. |
