    Lol, I don't expect Yang/Deng to stick around till 2030. Unless there's a major shift in their ambitions, they most probably wouldn't even stick around for next season. Heck, if they hadn't bombed at the Champions competition last season they probably would've been done competing by now. They...

    Wouldn't have made a difference even if Zhang/Jia were around. Their tech is worse than Yang/Deng from the last we've seen...

    There's no way their jumps and skating skills can be improved over a summer. They only started skating in their teens and are a living breathing answer to those "I'm 14, is it too late to make it to the olympics if I start now..." questions. They've been doing the same SBS (2S, 2T-1A-1A) for...

    I don't think anyone expects Tonghe to make jgpf……medal in Thailand was already a huge (pleasant) surprise. Also boy's not realistically gonna skate much better than he did in Thailand. It's not like he's gonna drop a quad out of nowhere or something. Getting a medal is already a huge win for him.

    Don't count on it, I expect them to just quietly remove Peng/Wang from their assignments and that's it. We also didn't get any official announcement when Peng/Jin split. It just came to be known when Peng/Wang became a thing.

    Just pick someone off the alternates list I guess?

    No one. There is no third senior team right now. Only two senior eligible teams competed at COC selection.

    Peng/Wang are most definitely done now.
