Christina Gao (USA): 2010 Skate Detroit 1st place, Senior Ladies Free Skate with a score of 107.71. Music is "Yellow River Concerto" choreographed by David Wilson.
I agree. I really hope to see Christina at senior worlds this season! Based on how the other ladies have been skating so far I do think she has a good chance at finishing in the top 2 at nationals. :)
with how weak the senior international ladies field is including the american women I would say Christina's got the best two programs and should be able to make the podium at Nationals. I seriously cannot watch 2 of any of the other american ladies-- just doesn't do anything for me except maybe Alissa's and Rachael's free (though both to a far lesser extent).
she has improved tremendously. i hope she keeps getting better on her 2A and her spins. match that with even more ice coverage and a true lutz (which is looking pretty close) and she'll be contending at worlds.
my god! has she changed since 2010 US nats!
3F + 3T along with that excellent flowy performance should bring her on to worlds!

I first thought she was Yuna Kim! Gao's days of sharing the same rink with Yuna paid off. Great skating.

She competed at the Thornhill competition a few weeks ago and didn't receive an edge call on her lutz :)
