Mao Asada triple triple?

[arakwafan2006]

Mao has won world championships and an Olympic silver medal (right below the highest scoring female skater in history) with her 3A, so I don't know how you can call it "a jump that has marred her career, not enhanced it or a "jump that gets her nowhere." And if you're basing your judgment solely on her ability to land it cleanly *this* season, then, umm. . . excuse me, but . . .THE POOR GIRL'S MOTHER JUST DIED! CAN YOU GIVE HER AN EFFING BREAK???!!! Geez. . .

Actually, this is the time when she probably feels it the most. Right after trauma is 1 thing but now that a slight amount of time has passed... first worlds without mom. not pretty.

I agree
let go of the 3A and work on the 3-3 more

but Mao will be back in full force, I am happy she is taking a short break after Worlds she needs it
we have had other great skaters that have gone through a lot and come back ( Slutskaya *)
Mao's comeback will be thunderous
