Scott in England soccer team shirt :D Maybe he watched World Cup? ;)

They're retiring the Goose?!?! I guess it makes sense - it's quite exciting to read that they are aiming to have completely new lifts, steps and spins for next year's programs.

Yeah - if they had it again next year it would feel kind of overused.

PJ Kwong's impressions from the celebration are in her blog (http://apps.pjkwong.com/blog/?e=50042&d=06/12/2010&s=Why%20my%20life%20is%20better%20than%20Oprah%27s %2E%2E%2E)

I kind of expected them to be at TEB because in turin they told me they wanted to ask for the grand prix in paris, and I think they have priority because they're world champions...or maybe olympic champions...or both ...well something like that :shuffle:

Yup, they told us they have priority because of winning Worlds!!

TEB!!!!!!!! Dreams DO come true!!! I'm so going to Paris.

New lifts, steps, and spins?! I was really hoping they'd go for all new stuff but I didn't expect them to actually try to do it.

I love how the town of Ilderton has been behind them and then celebrated their win with them both during the Olympics and now. It's so heartwarming to see a small town come together like that.

What a nice article! :)

Um but don't they ALWAYS skate at these two GP events? Is it a surprise?

I have to say I'm glad Ilderton got to celebrate with V&M. They definitely deserved a hero's welcome back and the town deserved to see their champions come home in the same way!

No, this was only last year. Before they was at NHK and must be at NHK at 2008-2009 GP, but Tessa had injury.
Its look, like they both love Paris :)

Tessa and Scott will skate at SC and TEB. A little dissapointed for me.....

Ooooh excellent, I'll get to see them at TEB again! :cheer2: It is a little unfortunate for fans around the world, though, that they are doing the same events two years in a row. It would be nice to spread the love!

Its OK - they will skate in Europe, Canada and Asia (China GPF and Japon), if all be OK, good geograhfic :D
At least they had GP events, where they want to be - this is really good for them.
Will waite reports from all off you, guys! :)
