I think rachael is a great skater. She has higher shoulders than most skaters so she looks hunched, but she definitely doesn't have a lack of flexibility!

[classicalgalNYC]

Line? Grace? Fluidity? Position? Technique? She possess no real talent... Big Jumps compared to having a big Ass! Long live Kwan and Cohen!

[96horseluvr]

she has the worst technique ever on her jumps, especially the entrance. she has zero artistry or grace. this "performance" is incredibly boring

[aNiMeDgUrL]

and how many women can get a lvl4 on their step sequence? mhm.

[aNiMeDgUrL]

not to mention shes consistent, i mean she's been a 3time silver medalist and champion in this program, unlike the other US skaters whose ranks have bounced around

i hope she does well in nationals this year ;D aim for the gold!

im tired of hearing all this crap about racheal being robotic in her skating and having no life in it - you dont have to be extremely giggly and bubbly to love what their doing, mirai all through the 2009-2010 season was really skating strictly for business. the judges put her as the champion because she had the 3-3 that is CLEAN and not downgraded and no funny edge calls and she gets the component mark by her speed and difficult transitions.

and she is NOT FAT. and neither is caroline.

Continued from below...so unless you can complete a 7 triple program with ease, win a national title, and be an Olympian, I suggest you keep your mouth shut.

Wow I seriously can't believe the comments on here...ugly? A poser? Fat? Number one, figure skating isn't about facial looks. Number two, obviously by her excitement and smiles during her program she loves to skate and doesn't do it just to get into college. Today she's in college and still is competing. Number 3, how is she in any way fat? Fat people can't jump or spin, and definitely can't make it to nationals or even get past regionals.

[juliexujx]

she's consistent, has incredible energy, and has been better about using artistry, i'll give her that. however, her jumps look like she's straining to do them (unlike mirai and ashley) and she does not very attractive catchfoot spirals and spins even though there are probably variations she could do better. although the last one isn't really just her - what's with the increase of ugly catchfoots? i'm pretty sure other variations are easier to do/better looking...

Flatt's score was a joke.

[faeryquene]

@classicalgalNYC ITA. Nagasu deserved to win the title but she was vindicated at the Olympics where the much more sane international judging panel put Nagasu and Flatt in their proper places- a well-deserved 4th for Mirai who rightfully beat Rachael who was placed 7th.

@KrystalUMKC yes sasha is a great skater, but she had mistakes on a lot of her jumps. that's what cost her.
