Kimmie had the total package: Beautiful Artistry & Terrific Jumps including those incredible Two Triple Triple's. On the downside the spiral was just a bit shaky!
@rickram1961 I agree she had the jumps. There is some period where the women find it easier to jump - maybe something to do with proportion of muscle to bone mass. BUT, compare her to Michele and Sasha at 16. She is just not the finished skater. Holding the moves, tasteful use of arms, the line. She still seems the gawky kid to me.
Kimmie's competitive skating career may have been short, but she should be very, very proud nonetheless. To be a national and world champion plus an olympian is a career that most of the top american girls currently in the sport can only dream of.
her triple toes on the end of the flip and lutz are toe axels not proper triple so would be downgraded to a double under the new ijs! But i still love to watch this performance!
I get tears in my eyes watching this because I remember wanting her to skate well. She was such a sweet girl and I always wanted her to have a great career. I guess regardless of whether we see her compete competitively she will always know she was a world champ :). I miss you Kimmie!
Amazing jumps, sweet girl... but her spins and spirals aren't flowing and pretty. Her skating always seems a little stiff to me, but i'm so happy she got her gold.
She’s so good though! (:
