The Dance Hall 12: Boston Tea Dance Party

It had everything I love about Ice Dance lore.

I had forgotten that Gritchuk wore Zhulin's wedding ring around her neck at the Albertville Olympics. Wow.

Did people here listen to the Runthrough's newest lore episode about ice dance back in the 1990s yet?

I thought it was amazing. Loved every minute! Nothing can ever top the drama of 1990s ice dance.

Is there any more info on who Nadiia Bashynska is skating with? She’s just hinted that she does indeed have a new partner…

It’s out and it’s THREE HOURS

It’s out and it’s THREE HOURS

I was concerned they were going to skip all the American citizenship drama after last week but I’m SO glad they backtracked to give us all the goodness!

I'm having so much fun listening to the podcast while driving, and then watching the playlists they've posted on youtube at night. Great way to have fun w/ skating during the off-season!

I just started it and The Favoritism of Dubova is my new favorite title of everything.

Omfg…. Did Maya Usova really become an advocate for smokers’ rights (the right to smoke inside)?

Girl, I know you were known for blowing the smoke from your Marlboros towards Oksana Grishuk’s face, but come on now.

Adam’s reaction to smokers’ rights is the best thing about the Dance Lore episodes. And I say that as someone who LOVES the Dance Lore episodes.

I listened to that part today and couldn’t stop laughing at them laughing.

The entry list for the Quebec summer dance event. (Aug. 7-10)

https://patinage.qc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/Liste-participants-CQE_2025-25062025.pdf

If both teams show up & skate both portions of the event (which often doesn't happen), it would be the first head-to-head between Fabbri & Ayer and Lauriault & Le Gac this season.

Reed & Ambrulevicius are currently listed as well.

Mom's idea for a thread title this season:

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

 

[Dobre]

Having just written that, I've gotta say it's seems rather unlucky that this Olympic season is the lucky number 13. (If we were at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, we would skip over "row" 13 and go right to 14 for better fortune).

Me too. Nothing topped that moment in a series that had nothing but high moments so far.

There does need to be one correction though. When they were talking about 2002, they misidentified the singer of “I Will Survive”. They said it was sung by Donna Summer. Someone needs to tell them that it was actually song by Gloria Gaynor and that the version used was a Eurovision-esque cover by Hermes House Band.

It's a changing-of-the guard season for Junior Dance.

Jr. World Results

1. Tali/Lafornara moved to seniors
2. Wolfkostin/Tsarevski aged out again
3. Grimm/Sativskiy split
4. Pidgaina/Koval
5. Fradji/Fourneaux aged out
6. Mullen/Mullen aged out
7. Aboian/Veselukhin
8. Gauthier/Thieren aged out again
9. Nguyen/Giang aged out
10. Perrier/Gianesini/Blanc Klaperman
11. Beznosikova/Leleu
12. Zhender/Sieber aged out
13. Schubert/Remeshevskiy aged out
14. Vaclavikova/Morozov split
15. Finelli/Bucciarelli aged out
16. Kishimoto/Tamura aged out
17. Straub/Straub
18. Yucel/Pak


At first blush, Pidgaina/Koval (UKR), Aboian/Veselukhin (USA), and France's double trouble Perrier Gianesini/Blanc Klaperman and Mouaden/Bigot (not at junior worlds due to country limits, but have medaled every season they've competed on JGP) should be early front runners.

Other contenders:
Canada's Veillon/Brandys won a bronze medal on the JGP last season and should be able to fight for higher placements this year. Ilin/Cain and the Straubs both finished 4th last season on the JGP and could make the step onto the podium. The Belgian team Beznosikova/Leleu's JGP results were so-so, but a top 11 at Jr Worlds was a great finish and indicates good potential for this season. I am also keeping my eye on Yucel/Pak who had better results than I believed their skating merited and were one of the teams alleged to receive inflated scores in the Balkov judging scandal. Interested to see how they skate and where they place (and which alleged judges are on their panels). And, of course, new pairings and newly-improved teams will also have a chance to contend.
