    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    I was at Bolero Cup (still :lol: at that name) and Reed/Ambrulevicius were very into it. Just an entirely different style of programme from Carreira/Ponomarenko's recent FDs.

    It usually is, but not 100% guaranteed. In recent years Team GB (British Olympic Association) has generally been good about sending athletes who meet international standards; I think a few throwing athletes with their standards were not selected for Paris, and there was a lot of :argue: with UK...

    Oh, poor Kristen. That must have been an incredibly hard decision to make. Yes, it will almost certainly go unused. Genevieve Somerville is the only other age eligible woman attempting most of the triples and she is a chronic under rotator (and a hard watch all round). Injuries have really...

    Lloyd Thomson and Tao MacRae both landed triple axels in competition for the first time at the Robin Cousins Cup (mildly negative GOE, but fully rotated). Thomson also attempted quad toe and splatted, but it was called all the way round. I went back to watch on the stream and it looked much...

    Most important question: is Lewis going to wear a kilt?

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    I'm sad for Pirhara (and for us) but if it isn't going to happen probably better to know now than to have the uncertainty hanging over them through the season. And I'm looking forward to seeing them in Prague, ready to :kickass: when their competitors will be tired and undertrained after the...

    2025-2026 Challenger Series have been allocated

    I read (of course, now can't find the link) that the Ukrainian federation is using Lombardia to decide who will compete at the OWG qualifying comp in Beijing. Which seems not the best choice, when that's the next weekend on a different continent.

    BIS is streaming the August Qualifier (results)... with sound muted during the programmes. :blah: I know skaters at all levels have been really stressed about meeting the new music licensing requirements, which seems in a large part ot be driven by "broadcast" rules, so hopefully this is just a...

    The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

    Harris/Chan were at the Australian Olympic Team's team building / media event in Melbourne in May (Jason's insta post). So while I haven't seen a Jason x Aussie passport selfie, presumably they/their NOC are confident everything will be in order by the deadline. Ignateva/Szemko will likely be...

    Unless she's discovered a sekret Irish grandparent within the last year it's a no go. The only other path to citizenship would be through residency on the island of Ireland (no exceptional pathways for athletes a la Spain).
