Yay, I'm number 5000. This is my favorite Nancy routine.

The system also doesn't allow for a cleanly skated FP to trump one filled w/2 foot landings and other hogwash. All because they " attempted it." What kind of B.S. is that?I say I'm going to attempt a quad toe and hurl myself up in the air, then splat on the ice-what's nice @ watching that.You recall this Worlds' that's exactly what happened.Last girl to skate her FP did everything,nothing popped,no 2 footed landings-she finished 4th.Awesome ISU-you did it again-making skating a laughing stock.

Don't these morons running the ISU understand that because they've made it all about the jumps and taken the artistry away that skating is in the toliet right about now except for the asian countries? If people want to see jumping they'll go see the men. But people want more then that from the girls. They want elegance grace and personality which is in short supply right now becaise the shitty scoring system doesn't allow for that.

I agree. I think there's too much focus on doing exhibitions-for financial incentives-these kids train and tour year round. There used to be a few competitions in the fall-then train for Nationals':try and make it to Worlds.'This new scoring system really stinks as well. It's Skating-where's the incentive for artistry? It's gone.Everyones' program is so predictable. Trying for triple axel; then the catch foot that EVERYONE does. It's like the Indy 500-only on skates.

Pretty sad how back then we had a dominate team that produced the only sweep in the history of the ladies event at worlds and now we can barely get our skaters in the top ten.

It's good for her 1st world championship,but she always left something out or popped jumps on the international level anyway. But was happy for her family and for her. Being part of history-this was the first sweep ever of the Ladies' Event-at Worlds and that merits something. She came home with a medal.

she's a really beautiful jumper - she's so straight in the air and always has such a graceful stance as she glides out of the jump

Thank God she got her teeth capped. YOu could fit a Zomboni thru that gap

she did fair but not great I never knew now how chezzy the choreography is. But her problem her was that she didn't let her free leg move in time after she complete the rotation even on the Lutz you can tell she barely had time to check out of the landing.

this is before the teeth got capped. |
