Music was Jesus Christ Superstar. She has good
speed. She landed a triple/double combination and popped a lutz, landing
facing forward. She did a single axel/double toe and the very cool
Shepard sit spin; down very low on the ice with her free leg completely
extended. She two footed another triple jump, and landed a double loop.
She has a very good change edge spiral with deep edges on both sides.
She landed another triple jump and fell on a double axel.

Music is Bolero. She did that beautiful lutz of
hers with a long deep outside edge, but it was only a double. All her
jumps were singled or doubled but the rest of her program was beautiful,
fast, smooth and lovely moves. She looked much happier and her skating
had much more expression than she used to. She did a beautiful spiral
held for the length of the rink, a lovely spread eagle and Moves In The
Field that make you say "wow."

speed and elegant flow. Singled an axel and fell on another triple and
another triple salchow. Held onto a double axel. Beautiful layback spin.

I like Shannel a lot, she is a sweet girl with great personality and
expression on the ice. She also has great speed and flow. But her jumps
were not there on Sunday night.

into an axel but fell. She fell out of another salchow. She dida
layback/catch foot/Bielman spin. She landed a double/double/double loop
combination and a double lutz/double loop. She has good speed in her
spins and she maintains the speed through the spin.

She skated to a tango. She landed a triple loop and a double axel/double
toe with good height. She landed another double jump and a triple. Sorry
I didn't write more but I was trying to eat and write at the same time.
(Hey there is so long you can deny a skating fan food.)

Last spring at EPCOT I thought the fireworks music for
Illumination would make a great skating program. Well Amy
must have read my mind because that is what she skated to. It is fast
music and she kept up the pace with a "wow" fast program. She landed a
triple toe/double toe and a double lutz. Zooming out of the jumps. She
fell on something and landed another triple toe, fell on a salchow.
Landed that great double axel of hers, but stepped out of another double
axel. Fell on her footwork.

She started out her program with quite a mischievous grin. She landed a
triple with great flow. She landed a double lutz/double toe, tried a
triple loop and landed facing forward. She really attacked the double
axel, and held onto a lutz. She landed a triple/double combination. She
has a nice spiral sequence, and fun, dramatic footwork sequence. She
landed a double axel/double toe combination. She has much improved
spirals this year, as well as greater energy and attack. She was good
last year and this year she has improved dramatically into a real
powerhouse. You folks in Washington and Oregon go see her at Coasts.

Some Chinese program - Landed a triple/double with good height, held
onto another triple jump. She stepped out of a triple salchow. She had
some interesting dance moves in her program and really stretched out
spirals. Landed a single axel and a triple salchow and two double jumps.

Dead tired when Jessica came out, but she really made me sit up and take
notice. She landed a double axel and a triple jump, but popped a
salchow. She is very expressive and musical. She did really good Ina
Baur very stretched with playful expression. Popped a lutz, landed a
double loop landed I think a triple jump. She has big personality!
