I sort of screwed up my explanation. She does the 3Lo, then the 1/2 loop. She takes off direcctly from the landing of 1/2 loop to perform the 3S. There's no swooping around with 2 feet on the ground getting up steam for the 3S. I think it must be easier to do the combination this second way.I'm not sure what you're trying to get at other than the half loop (Euler) being a bit smoother In Ashley's case. There's still a connecting Euler in between the jumps as @skatingguy has explained just above me. I think you're trying to say that the Euler needs to be done in a certain kind of way and not the Chartrand or Pogorilaya way, if I have it correct.
Also, no offense, but Wagner's 3T on the end of her combos and her 3S on the end of an Euler was always pretty underrotated and therefore shouldn't get the same points as anyone doing a 3+3 true combo or a 3+Euler+3 combo clean anyways
Yes, like many ladies Ashley had trouble getting full credit for both parts of the 3-3. However on this occasion her 3Lo3S got the HIGHEST score of any element in the ladies' free skate.
