Day 3: 11-Sep-2004
Ladie's Free Skate
- Martina Sasanelli - Italy
- I didn't take notes on her program. She
skated a very lovely, lyrical program with very pretty Moves In the
Field.
- Rumi Suizu - Japan
- Her program started out as Summer of 42 and then was a
medley of early 70's music. She landed a triple/double/double sequence,
a double lutz and a triple jump and another triple/double combination.
She has a layback spin with a very deep arch and beautiful arm
movements. Landed another triple jump and another jump that I couldn't
see behind the post. All of her program has really nice flow.

the program.

she was cleary going for the triple. Landed a triple lutz and a double
axel. Really deep outside edge spiral to an inside edge spiral. Fell on
a salchow. Landed a triple lutz. Did a triple/double/double combination.
Landed a triple loop/double loop. Really deep arch in her layback spin.
Tons of footwork in her transitions. She has loads of connecting moves,

4th place
- Danielle Kahle - USA
- Skated to Mack and Mabel. She has really come

can see her expressing the music and enjoying herself. Landed a triple
jump and a triple lutz/double loop. Landed a triple salchow and a double
axel. Landed triple toe triple toe with some extra steps between them.
Landed a triple loop. She was going like gang busters but then fell at
