I know... she should join the "Im going to Zoueva camp to work on style and presentation."
I can't agree with you there. I do wish that Tom had someone who could help skaters develop into artists however. Tom is the one you should consider perhaps moving somewhere where there is an ice dance presence. It's a massive gaping hole in his skating school, highlighted by Max Aaron if no one else. Mirai, even with a David Wilson program that hasn't been touched up still has a gorgeous presence on the ice so at its worst, it looks the way it did today which was still nice. The things is, David gave her a really complex deal to sell and without help of him daily , the bits and pieces that mattered got lost.
It would be super if Tom Dixon or even if a dancer who knows little about skating helped. It did wonders for Angela Nikodonov years ago. The deal in American skating is , send them to a choreographer for a weekend and all will be well. Delilah Sappenfield does this and the programs end up looking bare by the time Nationals comes around. The Chinese donthisnas wel. It somehow they've managed to bridge the gap because Sui/Han for instance were to die for. I don't even like Bridge over Troubled Water but I watched that free skate 3 times.
All I'm saying is Tom could use some help.
