She was ahead of her time with the difficult entrances into her jumps!

Artistic marks should have been higher. Awesome program.

Oh, she was such an underrated skater. So pleasant to watch. If she weren't as good as she is, her body style would make her look awkward and clumsy. Instead, she is lyrical and elegant. Marks were too low, IMHO. I know her jumps weren't that hard but they were well done and preceded by difficult moves. Layback spin was fabulous.

Her sister should have taken lessons from her on how to do a good layback spin (although Michelle's did get much better later). Thanks for posting!
