    2026 Olympics Men Podium Poll (mid-Jan)

    Ilia -> D-uh, but I see Yuma and Petr Gummenik who is landing a 5-quad LP on the podium. I wish I could say Adam would win a medal. Sigh!

    2026 Olympics Dance Podium (Mid-Jan)

    I think Beaudry / Cizeron, Chock / Bates and Guignard / Fabbri for the bronze in front of a home crowd. I really don't know who will win.

    2026 Olympics Women Podium (mid Jan)

    I think the top 6 after the SP will be Kaori, Amber, Alysa, Adelya, Mone and Ami, and I think Kaori, Alysa and Amber are the most likely to medal, but I am not writing off Petrosian yet. She did a clean SP recently in Russia, but one of the most fascinating aspects of the event will be how the...

    Alysa Liu cheer/fan thread

    Any word on the 3A? I was hoping that going back to Donna Summer, it would allow her time to concentrate on that

    U.S. Men 2025-26 Discussion - Quad God and the Mere Mortals

    Based on what I saw recently at Russian comps, Gummenik does 5 quads normally right now and I think Moskvina had a hand in choreographing his program(s)? She's at the boards when he skates and I would say that he is a podium threat at the Olympics.

    U.S. Women [#8]: Meet Me in St. Louis

    I thought I heard a snark in agreement come from Tara when their non-rivalry was brought up and JW mentioned that it didn't used to be like that among the women. I immediately thought of MK and it made me wonder why, if indeed she did snark ...

    U.S. Women [#8]: Meet Me in St. Louis

    I admire your enthusiasm, but no - The JPN women will have something to say about that, as may Adelya Petrosyan .... ETA - My spidey senses tell me that if everyone skates par for the course, the final group is likely to be Amber, Kaori, Adelya, Alysa, Ami and Mone. I would say Isabeau and Jia...

    U.S. Men 2025-26 Discussion - Quad God and the Mere Mortals

    Over on skating scores, the mean scores internationally this season are - #9 - Jason Brown 247 #22-Tomoki Hiwatashi 230 #24-Andrew Torgashev 228 #30- Maxim Naumov 224 - I don't think this includes Ice Challenge (?) Nothing to take from here that would help the USFSA make the decision which...

    Were These Epic Olympic Skates?

    I would say that M/K's LP in Albertville 1992 was also memorable. I recall she was always having trouble landing the 3T in competition but did it when it counted. I also think that U/Z's Four Seasons FD in Albertville was the seminal routine to that particular music. The final group of the...

    Slutskaya complains about 2002 and 2006 Olympic Placements

    And, to add, MK in 2nd after the SP may have snapped her into focus a little more. Thus, no fall on the 3F. I believe had she just given her 02 Nationals or Worlds LPs here in SLC, she would've won. Why she went coachless in an Olympic year boggles the mind.

    U.S. Women [#8]: Meet Me in St. Louis

    BTW. Since the new season of Ru Paul's Drag Race started: During the intro of each group of women at Nationals, they need to play Ru Paul on the loudspeaker stating 'Six queens stand before me ... Good luck, and DON'T F-CK IT UP'! (how many will though? :rofl: )

    U.S. Women [#8]: Meet Me in St. Louis

    I was tracking Ava's progress and of course, I am sad about her WD, but I am looking forward to Alina Bonillo. I hope she takes advantage of her luck. She has a ton of potential ...
