I remember how important it used to be for skaters to do Compulsory Figures, and how now, fortunately, that's long gone. As physical as these athletes have to be, I still hope that some day technical achievement will take a back seat to artistic impression. It's sad to think that a years work hinges on one triple axel and not overall artistic impression. Alissa is elegant and striking, and just about the very best skater we have.
love the music, and her costume rocks! actually, anyone noticed how like lucinda ruh she is? amazing spins, not so consistant jumps, but a great posture and line? i love her, she's great
This girl is so good and has some spark. If only she got those jumps. She's done it before she can do it again. It's all in her head. She could really contend if she did, especially with those jumps. I think she would really push herself to be a contender on the technical side.
I have the honor and priviledge of attending Bowling Green State University with her, and I met her. she is stunning skater, I think she is artistically stronger than Kimmie and Emily, she has more improvement vs bebe and I think she is like Sasha
Her flexibility is better than Sasha Cohen's. Sasha has no tension in her spiral, her torso is lower than Alissa's who creates more of a "V" tension in her spiral between her torso and free leg. Overall, Alissa's spins and program elements are better than Sasha...however, Sasha is a better jumper, although not very consistent herself.
Dick Button is WAaaaay biased. I don't Alissa's THE most EXQUISITE skater I've seen. Maybe among the U.S. skaters, yes, but nothing in the world stage. Also, she skates very unsteady, like as if she's going to fall if she jumps a little higher or something. I don't like her music either.
This program is one of my favourites :)

Alissa really is my favorite skater! I hope so much for her that she will do good at World's!

Alissa is geniaaal! re above seems sweet !

I meant that she could really contend if she got the jumps down, especially with those SPINS. Not jumps.
thank you :)
