Very lovely in between skating, I missed a lot of notes just enjoying her performance. 11th in the free and overall.
Cara Kinney
Her music is from The Mummy. Landed a double axel/double/double loop series, very cool. I am not sure if the middle jump in the series was a toe or a loop, but anyway it was impressive. Landed a triple salchow with great flow out of that jump. She landed a double/double loop combo and a double axel, another double jump and a double lutz.
Jessica Lee
Music is Carmen's Fantasy. Oh the poor kitten. I have been watching her all fall eating up the competitions landing jumps like gang busters and here she was in the lead going into the free skate and she has the worst skate of the season. Poor baby. You will get them next year. She fell and popped some things. So I am not going into the details of that. She has very nice in-between moves, with lots of little bits of one footed footwork. She is fast and has very soft knees and really goes after those jumps. Unfortunately today the jumps got away from her. She was 6th in the free and 5th overall.
