Hawayek/Baker still there!

Hawayek/Baker still there!

We have a good 5 weeks until Nats. I'm anxiously holding my breath for them and Chan/Howe.

 

[MacMadame]

This list was updated today because McNamara/Spiridonov have withdrawn.

Anyone know why?

 

[Karen-W]

Anyone know why?

From the US ice dance thread...

Just looked at the ISP and they're no longer listed...

 

[peibeck]

Given M/S's results on the GP series, being well outscored by other American ice dance teams, it seems like they probably would have really dropped in placement at Nationals. Even some of the teams who qualified looked likely to pass them this year.

I felt like they had potential, but nothing ever gelled for them.

 

[victorskid]

Hawayek & Baker have announced their withdrawal, said that they are "considering future directions" (or words to that effect), and posted a video of what I presume was to be their free dance.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

What's up with all these international skaters suddenly becoming Americans? Shouldn't it work the other direction - 2nd rate US skaters representing obscure European countries, like God intended?

We have Paniot, Samohin, Efimova, Nagy, Parkman - and these only the ones whom I recognize without googling. Keep your greedy capitalist hands off the OES!

Hey, it's not our fault their former feds can't keep them and they'd rather skate for us.

 

[TanithandBenFan]

Grace Yi and Danila Savelev withdrew on 1/20. They were a new team I was so excited to see

 

[Prancer]

Ava Ziegler, the surprise NHK Trophy champion, made the call last week to skip Nationals to concentrate on next week’s Four Continents.

I was looking forward to seeing her.

Oops, never added that news to this thread. It was getting so much attention in the US Women thread I didn't realize.

I don't get this logic.

 

[Skate Talker]

What I don't get is why Euros and Four Continents were so early this year. It really messed with Canadian & US nationals. IIRC Euros was usually very close to the end of January and Four Continents 2 weeks later in February. Add in YOG and it's too much all at once. Is the ISU trying to pressure Canada & US to move their nationals to December?

Important to note that the dates of Four Continents, and European Championships were not the dates that the ISU wanted, but were the dates proposed by the winning bids. For Four Continents in particular, the original dates proposed were not matched by either bid for the event.

 

[Belsornia]

And Euros were initially scheduled for this week but when Budapest withdrew as hosts and they had to reopen bids Kaunas was only able to offer the earlier slot as the arena was needed for basketball on the original dates.

Samohin wanted to represent a country where he could speak the language.

The number is even higher when you count juniors: Lewer and Galbavy in pairs, Markelov in dance. Just think - it's actually a plus for the OES currently competing. Many of those skaters don't have a release from their old feds yet so you won't see them internationally for a while.

 

[Karen-W]

Oh, come on! According to the Russian pundit class, Malinin is really theirs!

Lewer isn't OES! He's Australian, so I guess OOS.

Chan/Howe have withdrawn from the free skate.

Must have been while I was feeding the cat and sweeping the bathroom, lol.
