Hi all,

In a thread about "Ladies triple axel & quad rumors", Aaron MB Fan
(which of the Aarons is this?) posted the following:

"I am not totally positive of this info, it is just info I have heard.

I have heard that Maria Butyrskaya is practicing the triple axel, and
is planning on including her 3 axel in her long program.

Also, I have heard that Maria is planning a 3 loop/3 toe as her SP
combo with a 3 lutz as her solo triple."

Aaron, can you tell us where you heard this exciting news? Has anyone
else heard the same? It would definitely be great if either or both
bits of information were true. If Maria is planning the 3 loop/3 toe
as her SP combo, hopefully she is planning to use it in her LP as well
so that she has plenty of opportunities to practice it in competition
during the season and is landing it consistently for Russian
Nationals, Europeans, and Worlds.

Any news on the music for Maria's programs next year?

Go Maria!


Regards,

Elliot
