She started out an Arabian-esque program with some belly dancing. She
landed a triple toe/double toe and a double axel. She did a very
stretched change edge spiral. She wrote down triple salchow, but Unseen Skaters says it was a
double which would better explain her placement and honestly I can't
always tell if a jump is short of rotation or not.

She skated to a surfer music/Malguena medley. She landed
a triple/double toe. She popped her salchow. She did a fast change edge
spiral. Her double axel is great she flies in and out of it. I always
look forward to seeing Amy skate just cause I love seeing that double
axel.

into a camel/combination spin. She landed a high double axel.

Skated to the Prokfiev Romeo and Juliet (considering
how often that music is used I really ought to learn how to spell
Prokfiev) She landed a double axel. She stepped out of a loop
combination. She did a triple toe but couldn't control the landing. She
holds her spiral positions well.

11th.
|

|
She landed a triple salchow/double toe combination and a
triple toe. She has a nice back in her sit spin. She did an Ina Baur
into a double axel but two footed the axel. She did a Bielman spin and
held her spirals well. Her placing of 11th makes no sense to me. I missed something
here.

She landed a double axel and a triple lutz/double toe
combination. She has pretty movements, a very stretched Bielman spiral
and nice Ina Baur. She did three turns into a loop but fell out of it.
She is a very lyrical and pretty skater.

She did a double axle with great flow. She caught an edge
going into her salchow and took a hard fall. Popped her lutz. Poor kid
has been injured and this was not her night.

She stepped out of her triple loop. She is a very
graceful skater with good flow. She fell on something. She did these
wide swinging three turns into a double toe. She did a lovely spiral with
a lovely smile. She has a beautiful catch foot layback spin.

Ye Bin's back, hooray, hooray. How wonderful to see her
after all those injuries took her out of the sport. She looked healthy
and happy and lovely to watch. She did three turns into a loop jump, two
footed a double axel. Fell on a double toe. She did a split jump into a
combination spin. She had a nice smile on her face in a really well
stretched Bielman spiral. She is more expressive than she used to be,
but still has those great edges.

It is always a shock when you first see a young
skater as a Novice and you don't get to see them again till they are
seniors. I met her when she was a little girl and now she is a young
lady. Talk about Future Shock. She landed a triple toe, two footed a
triple loop. She did that famous Danielle sit spin, she puts her leg
straight out in front of her, it is hard to describe but it is way cool.
She put her hand down on the double axel. Her footwork was very good
with steps well timed to the music. She fell out of her final spin.

Skated to the Overture from Crazy For You. You just can't
go wrong skating to Gershwin. And Becky sells this program with great
personality and presentation. She put her hand down on a triple lutz,
landed a triple toe/double toe and a double axel. Fast combination spin.
Great program, great delivery.
