I guess at least it's not a sibling team...

She had surgery on her back: https://www.instagram.com/p/DLFQIr0so2S/?img_index=1 I hope she can make a full and quick recovery - I'm pulling for her to get the Olympic spot. Looks like she has the same sports physio who worked with Penny Coomes during her comeback from her knee injury. Other...

They switched to the UK. :lol:

The competition schedule has now been published: Tuesday 13 January: Official Practice Day Wednesday 14 January: Pairs Short Program - Opening Ceremony - Women Short Program Thursday 15 January: Men Short Program - Pairs Free Skate Friday 16 January: Ice Dance Rhythm Dance - Women’s Free Skate...

Isn’t Shimada too old for the JGP? He’s already 23.

I hope they have their new programmes before they leave for Montreal. :shuffle:

Looks like one less team will be booking a flight to Beijing: Katarina DelCamp and Berk Akalin are moving on to show skating (his retirement post, learning adagio tricks). Irmak Yucel and Danil Pak are age eligible for seniors so Türkiye may still have a team, but I think they'd be advised to...

Never say never I suppose, but Molly did a few interviews in the UK on the back of her DOI win and said she wasn’t looking to go back to competitive skating. I wouldn’t take this as anything more than evidence that Peter’s still in Scarborough. In other news from Carol Lane’s British...

There’s a new competition on the BIS events page, the Bolero Cup (yes, really :rofl: ) on 5-6 September, an ISU international for senior, junior and advanced novice dance running alongside the late summer ice dance qualifier. I’d think it could attract a reasonable senior field, since it’s good...

Mariia Holubtsova also posted on IG a few weeks ago that she is now looking for a new partner.

Nooooo. 40 million depressions. And please no more teen marriages in ice dance. I know this season has been difficult for them, but it always seemed like they had a pretty solid and supportive partnership. From his post it sounds like it was quite unexpected for Savitskiy too. One sided...

I haven't been following Russian skating closely but IIRC Akopova had quite a severe back injury, so on top of the time away from competition it's hard to say what their level might be in the autumn. Still, if they're even close to where they were in 2021-22 they should be in the mix. The other...
