Love the choreo! <3

[beatbox924]

her jumps are gorgeous but she needs to work on the landings

[monteeyx2]

she has to do Rachel's catchfoot spin due to the new spin regulations the ISU put in place this past spring in order to get the greater point value from the flying camel spin.

@monteeyx2 thanks for the explanation. bummer though :(

[beatbox924]

@monteeyx2

couldn't she do an upright spin instead of the camel?

[smartskater1]

@monteeyx2 .... Rachael's catch foot is less stretched cuz she brings her back lower and Rachael goes onto an inside edge.

[beatbox924]

i really like this new direction she's going in! so expressive :)

As to the Rachael-Flatt catchfoot spin-- my only response is...why?????
