@songbird, thanks for posting.  It was a pleasure to watch such a talent.  She is definitely one to watch.  I have not watched ice skating in years because it was becoming very boring to me.  It might be time to start watching again.

The next time that I hear salt and ice together, it better be in a margarita!

Not only does she complete her jumps, but she lands the quads on the correct edge.  Something her older competitors can't do.

@songbird. she is just amazing and so talented.  I also used the word "watch" just a little too much in that post.
