Tessa and Scott skating the Paso Doble CD at JGP Montreal in October 2005

and then more famously the Paso CD from 2009 Worlds- kind of thrilling to see despite it being that difficult first surgery season how much they grew in the few years between the two performances- in speed, character, extension, ice coverage

though they were pretty great that 2005-6 season- they won every Jr event they entered including Worlds and won bronze at Senior Nationals and at 4CC (!!) they did the full pattern 3 times in the CD- the PSt for this season’s RDs will use less than half the original steps for one pattern, with the middle being whatever they choose, as long as they do 3 difficult turns
