另外一些关于张园园的内部消息。我同一个与张园园经常有近距离接触的人通了几次Email.具体细节不便透露,但总体来讲,这小孩非常 stubborn, 由于从小就是小天才,所以有点傲气,不太讲礼貌。据说,她妈妈以及李明珠都管不住她。她只听她第二个教练的话。(Caroline 有两个教练)。难道李明珠又探上了一个不服管教的倔小丫?
以下关于 Caroline 的评论,是从 ISU 讨论区摘录。
“In addition to her insane flexibility, I think Caroline's other gift is an amazingly true axis. I've seen her go on and on changing positions and keeping a spin going and never straying from her axis. I think that's also why her jumps are so consistent (with the exception of the fall on that triple lutz in the exhibition, which is so uncharacteristic of her). Last year she was still having trouble landing her triples cleanly, but she would never fall; she'd just finish the last 1/3 - 1/2 turn on the ice with perfect balance.”。。。
“Caroline is such a natural that all of this stuff is just very easy for her. I see her practice every week and it's just disgusting! But it's true that her pick jump technique--particularly on the lutz--needs to be fixed. Hopefully her coaches will spend the next year breaking her bad picking habits just like they spent the last year helping her get all of her triples clean. I'm sure they are yelling at her right now for the sloppy footwork (she only got Level 1's on her footwork in both programs) just like they yelled at her for not holding her spirals and spin positions long enough in her two previous Grand Prix events."
..."
I agree that the music and the timing of her change-edge spiral may have been inspired by Michelle Kwan, but I don't believe she imitates the style of Michelle Kwan, Sasha Cohen or anyone else. If one comparison can be made, it might be Lucinda Ruh, since she has actually taken spin lessons from Lucinda. But the fact is, every skater with flexibility is now doing the moves Michelle, Sasha and Shizuka were known for because they count as features that raise the level of the element!
But Caroline has her own style and always has. In addition, she is actually innovating with her new layback and Biellmann variations. I'm surprised people aren't already calling her horizontal Biellmann (layback position with calf of free leg touching back of head) the "Zhang spin." Same with the Biellmann where she wraps her free leg around the back of her head and eats her heel. I never saw anyone do these until Caroline started doing them, and although there are now girls imitating her boot-eating Biellmann, I still haven't seen anyone successfully imitate her horizontal Biellmann.
BTW, I haven't seen her practicing any triple-triples, but that doesn't necessarily mean she isn't." |
