Yet, even though she's still a child in this video,she skated like an experienced professional adult figure skater who has already developed some master techniques and elements.
What's amazing about her skating this early age is the speed with which she skates as well as the secure edging. Of course, the jumps are amazing, but I think the strong basic skating skills really helped her become the amazing skater she later became!
I LOVE IT!!! AMAZING @ 11..I think she jumped like 20-30 times :). I don't know what the commentators were saying but it sounded like they were impressed. And I agree, I dont think there will ever be anyone like her again. They broke the mold with Midori.
