    US Ice Dance 2024-25 News & Updates

    Well to sum up my thoughts, the people who say ice dance judging can be political, contrary and nonsensical are right. But at least for the next Olympics ice dance won't be kicked out of the Olympics so I'm going to deal with what is not what should be (kind of like the team event) Since this is...

    US Ice Dance 2024-25 News & Updates

    Wow, I take a little time away and I log on the forum and read this news. Wow! I didn't really expect this but it makes me happy. Now I'm dreaming of +5 twizzles and a possible return to the Olympics. Maia and Alex are smart, they wouldn't undertake this path unless they're prepared to...

    U.S. Men 2024-25 news & updates

    I'm not willing to write him off either. Besides reliable Ilya and Jason, if we start dismissing all of our other men who compete poorly a couple of times but many times skate well who do we have left? I'm not obsessing about thos precious three spots business but remember Vincent skated lousy...

    The Dance Hall 12: Boston Tea Dance Party

    I believe Rena Inoue also gave up her Japanese citizenship when she represented the USA with John Baldwin Jr. At the Olympics in 2006

    2025 ISU World Figure Skating Championships in Boston

    Don't be sorry you vented. Remember, US nationals when the ads on the boards and on TV were almost all geared for those of us who aren't young anymore. Prevagen, Consumer Cellular ad nauseum. Heck what I found a little ironic was it was not Boston based famous Dana Farber Cancer that advertised...

    Carreira/Ponomarenko Need a Cheer Thread

    Popping in here to congratulate C/P on their showing at worlds. I admit I wasn't thrilled with Carmen as their choice of music as I'm old enough to remember the battle of the Carmens between Debi Thomas and Katarina Witt, but I enloyed C/P's Carmen more every time I watched it. But please next...

    U.S. Men 2024-25 news & updates

    I'm just wondering with three gold medalists in the four disciplines for the US, what would be the pecking order as to which skater or team gets to decide first whether they want to skate either the SP or the LP/FD or both? I remember Nathan chose to skate only the SP, and the Shibs decided in...

    "Legacy on Ice" benefit show in D.C. (March 2, 2025) and ways to help those affected by the air tragedy over the Potomac River

    I finished watching the show last evening, I couldn't watch the whole thing in one sitting. It moved me and watching Max and Johnny and Ye Bin Mok and really almost everyone had me weeping. On a more trivial note it was lovely to see Amber Glenn do a classic Layback spin. No Bielmann position...

    U.S. Women [#7]: Make Me a Believer!

    ^^^ Suppposedly I think the Road to 26 trophy is unofficially her test skate for worlds. If she skates well with no pain I think she's in. On the other hand if Isabeau skates poorly assignments might change as far as Worlds goes.
