And a very nice one. I wonder if she has reworked the Lady GaGa program to open with a triple axel.

I didn't subscribe just for January and February. I also subscribed for the Grand Prix series, and then I wanted to include both Nationals and the Olympics as well as Worlds. Financially, it made sense to get the annual subscription, but that wouldn't be the case if it turned out that Peacock...

That's the confusing part. I paid for an annual Peacock subscription because I expected to be able to watch Nationals and the Olympics. I will be very ticked off if I can't. The release says: “NBCSN is a win across the board – driving value for fans and distributors who prefer an...

She first posted about the Red Bull sponsorship on Instagram in April: https://www.instagram.com/p/DITWAbaR4ME/?img_index=2 She had a photo shoot and video shoot not long afterwards, so maybe we'll see some ads? Various photos have been released online, and here is video of her skating in a...

That wouldn't make him a woman. :lol: I was responding to your claim that people are complaining just because Piper is a woman and we wouldn't say anything if she were a man. That's pretty obviously untrue. I think it is stupid for them to be publicly complaining about placements and scores...

Nonsense. I called out Torgy as well. I think they were both stupid.

Yes, the callers have a lot of power and could screw with things in the way that they call levels (as well as qs and <s). I agree that they should try to make calls in ways that are similar to the calls during the GP. I hope that will happen, but I'm not sure it will. And that's one more...

ITA. I also think her ADHD may enter into this. It's really hard for some people with ADHD to shut off their brains and just do. It's not just about being distracted. The ADHD might help her to some degree by giving her some hyperfocus in training, but she has to control it so that she...

It is flexible. In theory, that is so that they can pick the skaters they think will get the highest scores in Milan. They very much do not want the judges at Nationals to be the ones picking the team. They don't think that works well when it comes to picking the strongest team. I suppose...

So, they could select the Shibs or the Browns? I don't think so.

Yes, but at SCI Ami finished fourth in the SP and third in the LP and third overall - behind Mone and Isabeau. And Ami doesn't have the senior big competition experience that Mone has. Like I said, I think you could make the argument either way.

Here's the link for the current USFS rules: https://usfigureskating.org/documents/2025/8/26/2026_FSK_Athlete_Selection_Procedures_FINAL_OLY.pdf This is what the applicable team event rules say: "The selection of athletes/teams for the Team Event will be based on the Discretionary Selection...

It's a tough call. If I were the Japanese federation, I'd want to rely on what international judging panels have done over multiple competitions rather than just Nationals. And I might even look at their success in the SP in particular if that's where they would compete in the TE. Plus, Ami's...

Yeah, I'd be surprised if Ilia or C&B decided not to split given how early their individual events are. There isn't a reliable guy other than Jason to put in. At this point, I think it would be Z&K for the other dance spot, but we'll see what happens at Nationals. And then it would pretty...

What's even crazier is that his leg swings a bit wide on the landing of the first one, which isn't a perfect set up for the second one, and he can still adjust and do the second one. Amazing.
