Bev Smith Writes on Alysa Liu:

Alysa Liu: Riding a Sunbeam - Bev Smith Writes

Alysa Liu is just cut from a different cloth. She astounded the world when she did off-the-wall things like land a triple Axel, then a triple Axel-triple toe loop when she was a 13-year-old junior. At a Junior Grand Prix in Lake Placid in August of 2019 – when she was only 14 – she […]

Jason Brown grew up feeling the magic of the Miracle on Ice, that unforgettable march of the US hockey team to win gold at the 1980 Olympics. in Lake Placid, N.Y. Never mind that the event pre-dated his birth by 14 years. It’s just something that lives forever in the heart of an athlete in […]

We haven't seen any photos yet, but you can be certain there will be AmLactin bottles!

Saatva is this years sponsor? The rolled up mattress? Oh dear…..

My gosh, if we think of all the sponsors over the decades from smart ones, Hilton Honors, AmLactin, so is AmLactin not present this year?

Remember, smart ones? I keep thinking of hot pockets whenever I think of smart ones.

When are we gonna see Reeses be a sponsor?

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I can’t find a Widgie, has anyone found it yet?

Damn, look at James Hernandez in the practice, I think it sucks when you age out of juniors, but there’s no room for you in seniors, so you’re barely seen again…

Starr plans to transition to pair skating after this season (her final in singles), which I'd be really interested to see. If she takes Deanna as her role model, she could have a nice long career ahead of her.

Andrews Skates to the Soundtrack of Her Own Voice - U.S. Figure Skating

Long before Starr Andrews was battling for medals on the international figure skating scene, she was an internet superstar. Her celebrity began with the 2023 U.S.
