    Deanna Stellato-Dudek injured pre-Olympics - news & updates

    I randomly just watched her documentary and am so happy they made it. I competed at the same Junior Olympics with her in 1997 (!!!) so the fact that Deanna's at the Olympics almost 30 (!!!) years later makes me thrilled beyond belief. I hope they have a great time and skate their hearts out. I...

    2025-26 U.S. Ice Dance News, Updates & Discussion - Backstreet Boys & Spice Girls

    They are truly a class act and have been such a gift to this sport (which after tonight, frankly doesn't deserve them). In my heart they are two time Olympic champions.

    C/B should be leaving Milan with two golds but ice dance gonna ice dance. The judges can sukk it.

    2026 Olympics Team Event - Strategy, Predictions & Discussion

    NOOOOOO. I hope this doesn't give Chock Bates a disadvantage since they’re competing so close to the ceremony.

    2026 Olympics Team Event - Strategy, Predictions & Discussion

    Considering goe boost on base value, do you get more points doing a 4a+3t, 3a and then 4lz in the bonus or doing a 4a, 3a and 4lz+3t in the bonus?

    I desperately want Chock/Bates to win so I hope you're right. But my gut is saying that FB/C have this one in the big - barring another major disaster for them which I think is extremely unlikely given that a flukey fall already happened at the GPF so statistically that would be unlikely.

    Deanna Stellato-Dudek injured pre-Olympics - news & updates

    So sad :-( Hope it all works out. Was heartbroken for Vincent Z in Beijing and will be for them too if they can't skate.

    ISU figure skating officials weigh major changes in rules, schedule

    Like if someone's 3A got called clean, q and < (and yes that is a pretty extreme case but I have seen some truly bonkers calls where an obviously underrotated jump was called clean - see Bradie Tennell's 2A+3T from Shanghai Trophy a few years ago -...

    ISU figure skating officials weigh major changes in rules, schedule

    Here's what I think should change: -Unlevel the spins and step sequences - the desperate, horrendous moves to get levels is KILLING the sport. The blade features, the slow ugly positions, those horrible jumps and slides out of spins, long and laborious step sequences with zero connection to the...

    That’s for the best - that Halston program is TOUGH.

    Official retirement announcements by figure skaters in 2025-2026

    So sad - still think he should have been on the O team. Wonder how his career trajectory might have been if he moved to Japan earlier.

    2026 Olympics Women Podium (mid Jan)

    Alyssa, Amber and Kaori with Isabeau having an outside shot because she has very crowd-attuned content. Ami really needs her 3A to be in the conversation and that is a really inconsistent jump for her and Mone is a nervous wreck. Adeliia looked really rough at nationals. Niina was solid at...

    2026 Olympics Dance Podium (Mid-Jan)

    I'm afraid to voice what I think because I DESPERATELY want Maddie and Evan to win gold and I'm terrified of jinxing them. I do feel like the home country advantage will be HUGE for G/F and help them edge out another team.
