I recall reading on their blog last fall that they were having difficulties obtaining a release from USFS to skate for Switzerland. The paragraph beginning: "The tumultuous season continued and we were trying to figure out what exactly was going on with our status in competing for Switzerland"...

Indeed!

So, Chris's reply to Mirai is kind of fun . . . . https://twitter.com/mirai_nagasu/status/1243025296099606533 And I kind of get the feeling Mirai is being a little playful by tweeting this. I suspect she has insider knowledge. ;-)

Your user name captures everything about your post. (I have friends who would 100% back you up on this phenomenon, too!) UGG. :)

Maybe inspired by this one by Alissa Czisny? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZurMskwPwE0

SUPER fun & wildly exciting! Realistically, they see the void, too. Until the 3A/quad generation can solidify itself, there's certainly room for ladies of the past (and present) to resurface & shine.

Thrilled for Deanna, whatever her path may be!

Me, too! I had at least one program in mind. Maybe one of the tippy-top went operetta. Love a high quality G&S, when it can be worked in.

True. Not terribly unlike the comeback track of Alissa Cizisy. If I recall, Alissa appeared at EGL Regionals, placed 1st. Then continued to Sectionals with a bye due to assignment, or, sadly, maybe that was the year she had to withdraw due to a horrific injury. I clearly don't recall specifics...

(bold added) Aladdin, I believe. And as you said, I'm sure it will grow over time.

I would also include the High Performance Camp (formerly ISP camp) held immediately following Broadmoor. This is the Champs Camp equivalent for Non-GP skaters.

Skaters have been told they will be assigned if they do well in summer competitions, regardless of how nationals went for them (even if they didn't go!) I think USFS is improving its game in this aspect. At least, I sure hope so!

But it may be enough for Skate America TBA given how the USFS Senior season is shaping up. And I'm in it for that! :-)

Plus, aren't Michael and Logan close in height? (Lack of height difference being a drawback listed in this thread.)

And the photo captures a special bond between the two. I love it!
