Shady. :yikes: :scream:

I know that was the way their split was officially presented, but I also know that there were rumours as soon as a few weeks after 2022 Worlds that Trennt was trying out with new partners before Evelyn had decided what she wanted to do, and also people who posted that they (Evelyn and Trennt)...

To me, this is starting to seem very much like Paul Poirier breaking up with Vanessa Crone in hopes of moving up in the World faster and yet being absolutely unwilling to leave Scarborough for other coaching, and then taking four full seasons to place higher at Worlds with Piper than his best...

The post said that their original concept for their SP didn't work out, so yes, they trashed a program, but it didn't specify whether that was also a Lori program or if it was a Marcotte program.

NGL, I am totally fine with a Nastia #2. I loved Nastia's style of gymnastics and would gladly welcome it back. I really liked Claire's gymnastics.

After her initial success and (over-)hype at age 13/14, I was skeptical about Alysa achieving any sort of longevity in her skating career. When she had her first major growth spurt and people began writing her off, and she was able to regroup and fight back, I realized I was wrong, and so I was...

Given that one of the factors of the breakup was apparently that Nadiia wanted to leave Scarborough, while Peter did not, this seems highly unlikely.

I am extremely relieved that they aren't skating for Canada. Thank goodness for small mercies.

I haven't read it, but I'm guessing this is about that Icebreaker nonsense that all the chick lit book clubs seem to fawn over?

Very happy that Kaiya was able to achieve the Worlds minimums this season! :cheer:

Apparently there are rumours that Minsol Kwon of South Korea is going to be competing for Canada. She is on the Senior Women's list for Ontario Sectionals.

Do we know who is in which qualifying subdivision yet?

I might be wrong (I don't follow gymnastics nearly as closely as I follow figure skating), but I don't think anyone has ever said anything blatantly negative about Mihai Brestyan, Aly Raisman's coach.

Yikes. I can't say I'm that surprised - as I mentioned in my initial post, with gymnastics coaches these days, I hold my breath and basically wait until something negative is revealed. :(
