I loved this program - bubbly, with great speed and engaging transitions. Another excellent music choice which one can really get behind. There were a couple of errors, but that didn't detract from the performance as a whole - great to see.

    Irinaの演技についてここまでも批判的なコメントが多いことに心を痛めている。多くの人は、ミスに過度に反応しすぎて、彼女が挑戦しているテクニックの難しさとその実施の素晴らしさを見落としている。明らかに彼女は素晴らしい演技をした。ジャンプは非常に高いし、レイバックスピンの難しいポジションのコンビネーションは息を飲むようだった。ジャンプの回転不足は確かにあるかもしれないが、2つ目の3Lz-3Lo<<-2T以外は、大きなものではありません。

    Michelle connected with her music way better than Irina! You can slap any music onto any of Irina's program and it would look all the same. Look at all the different elements (spread eagle, Charlotte, reverse camel spin, differing layback positions, forward and backward spirals, etc...) Kwan has incorporated into her programs through out the years in addition to the required jumps.

Kwan was good in her era compared to her peers, but the sport has moved on and been elevated to a totally different level in all aspects. Things do change, and we have to go with that. Otherwise one can always look back to the 60s or 30s and find even 'better' skating because things were ever simpler back in the days and people had a different focus. Speaking of the 'Russians', Tarasova back in her days was an absolute goddess with the looks to match it, better than those in the 90s, though with much simpler elements.
