INHO it is already too late, at least for Trennt. They needed to do this a long time ago. Perhaps they would have done this IF they would have felt that they need to. I am in impression that they, especially Trennt, believes that their coaching is great even though the results speaks other story.

I believe in Shin/Nagy.

Thank you. Glad to hear that everything is alright with her! The info she posted here on the forum, the spirit in which she posted was unvaluable- no sides, just factual, neutral info; info for info sake. It was so helpful especially for those (=me) who have no time or energy to dig through all...

Maddie seems to me very tense ( inwardly) and, because of that, she does not allow herself truly to feel the beauty, depth (and music) of each movement. IMHO this music is not the best choice for her to skate. And kudos to all the improvements in her skating. I do not know where to put this- I...

It was your objective observation of one particular show and you shared it - thank you. Years ago, providing music therapy for the terminally ill, I spontaneously decided to show to the one of the ailing one LP of Satoko skating.... The reaction was unbelievable- the patient was in tears; tears...

...hmm... as far as I remember interview with Tamara Moskvina she said that it is not enough for a pair girl to have good or excellent technical skills and talent, that it is also utmost necessary to interact with a partner, or, like we do say "to be as one" and Moskvina very...

Many blessings to Aliona on her way to motherhood! On personal note, I do feel sad that her brilliant talent as a single skater was so short. I always wonder why all these wealthy Russian emigrants never considered to help her when help was needed to get her out of Russia and Tutberidze camp...

It is enough to look on Melania's face to see that she herself is of Russian blood. There is that distinctive Slavonic features in her look and not only in the look, not Finnish at all. Her mother is Russian/Ukrainian. To find a Russian coach or partner does not mean an immediate success in pair...

Yes, you are absolutely right. It IS nauseating. This whining and complaining, this Russian ARROGANCE is nauseating. But there is no one and nothing that change this. Nothing. No one. No discussions or anything else is going to help. Nothing can help. One has to be willing to see the truth, to...

Hmm...it seems that Loena has burned out last season (?). TO skate being injured or sick is beyond one's physical strength, and, eventually, it burns out psychologically and one needs time to recover. Just my interpretation, nothing else. I have no any knowledge what is happening with her. I...

IMHO Brady's choreography this year is not the hit on the nail.

Could you say few words about Loena's performance?

...imo her choreographer Adam Solya is... what he is doing is a crime! Loena never ever tried any other choreographer since, if i am not mistaken, 2018. She believes unconditionally what her team tells her to do :-( And there is no hope anything is going to change. But who knows... it is only my...

Tutberidze in "literal sense" is not a Russian either... She is Georgian. And yet, she is a Russian. If she would not be successful, then it would be a different story- 'Oh, she is not even ours! what you can expect? She is Georgian'
