    2021/2022 Canadian Men: News and Updates

    I agree with every single word you wrote! He needs professional help to work through these past 8-10 days and not before that is done (which can take quite a while) should a decision about any future skating be made. I hope and pray that Skate Canada treats him with all the care in the world and...

    New Michigan Ice Dance Academy

    This is true for ALL elite athletes, figure skaters or hockey players, cross country skiers or wrestlers. For so long they have been told when to eat, when to train, when to do pretty much everything, so when they transition to "regular" life, they are in a lot of instances "lost".... My own...

    Skate America 2020 Back to Vegas

    Both NBA and NHL are planning to return and complete the 2019-2020 season. They have some pretty solid plans and I expect both to be on TV by August

    Battle of the Blades is returning to CBC this Fall!

    I personally hope she's not included this year; I know I'm probably in a minority, but it is a CBC (Canadian Broadcast Corporation) production and I know there are many figure skaters in Canada.... I don't need to see Russians, Americans etc

    2019-20 Canadian ladies news and updates

    Well, we have 4 junior ladies and 3 spots (2 JW and 1SW). Everyone is up in arms that Shizas was pushed to the side by SC, but SC had no choice... With naming Kaiya to JW right away, one of the remaining ladies (Emily, Madeline and Allison) was going to get nothing. I'm not saying Kaiya isn't...

    2019-20 Canadian ladies news and updates

    I think that the issue is that Kayla was selected for JW right away and therefore there was only 1 spot available at each and 3 deserving ladies...

    Skate Canada has updated teams for Worlds & Junior Worlds - still some TBD

    I'm thrilled that SC is sending Emily and Madeline to more international comps to get minimums and (let's not forget) experience international judges and pressures, but i can't help but feel a bit sad for Allison Shumacher. I'm pretty sure she has the minimums for both SP and LP and clearly...

    Canadian Pairs 2019/2020 Season News and Updates

    I agree, but I'm not sure who they should go to.....and I would assume that Charlie being a newly wed, would prefer to stay in Quebec. BUT if they would go, how about Bryce Davison? Others above questioned the throws and i agree with those who said that it's "just a blip". I wonder if Luibov...

    Skate America 2020 Back to Vegas

    Hubby jumped on the idea of going to Vegas right away... His exact words were "can't tell the poker guys that I'm taking my wife to Vegas, but I don't have to spend any time at all with her":ROFLMAO: Any idea when tickets to the actual skating will be available?

    Canadian Pairs 2019/2020 Season News and Updates

    I agree completely. One could (almost) always count on the throws when she was with Dylan. Now i'm just worried through out the program. AND it looked like Charlie almost dropped her when she came down from the lift, at least he had a stumble which definitely worried me :( I'm just so...

    Cipres/FFSG Press Release on the situation 12-16-2019

    The same in Sweden. It's still difficult for my hubby to accept when the whole family (sister-in-laws, brother-in-laws, nieces and nephews) even after 30+ years....

    Canadian Pairs 2019/2020 Season News and Updates

    I wonder if Bardei being so much taller than both Ostiguy and LaPointe has effected Justine. He is listed as 1.9 where as both her former parters were around 1.75...

    Simonenko's interview with Bobrova

    I don't think there is any jealousy. I believe he's stating his opinion rather clearly and I completely agree with him. P/C are wonderful skaters, but there is no doubt in my mind that all their programs fit the same mold... They really, really need to step outside their comfort zone or they...

    Weaver and Poje step away from competition

    I was so sorry to read Kaitlyn's message on IG this morning. I was hoping/dreaming of them getting back to the podium in Montreal for a perfect good by! This makes me really, really sad: I had not heard/read anything related to the above; is it really true??

    CBC Revives Battle of the Blades Skating Show!

    Claude Lemieux was another super dance partner of Shae's!! He also sang the lyrics to "Hallelujah" himself when they skated to that one - look it up, it was amazing!! I guess I'm in the minority, but I prefer Canadian skaters - didn't like Katia Gordeeva et all (love to watch her skate, but...
