Coaching Change Thread

Urmanov ain't happening. And besides, keep that George Michael cosplaying choreographer as far away from Deniss as possible.

I think Huth would be a nice option. Regardless of whatever happened with Lambiel -- maybe things just ran their course -- change could be a good thing.

Huth is the best option.

Meh. There were candid shots years ago that were inappropriate at best.

Then post a link to one of those.

And rumors of more than a professional relationship for years. But whatever, everyone loves Lambiel here, so any suggestion is incredulously ridiculed.

I don't love Lambiel. I don't think he's the best coach either. But people in a better position than me say it didn't happen and I trust their judgement and their knowledge more than vibes.

Looks like Lara Luft / Ilias Fourati have left Haus of Diamonds and moved to Kristen Fraser and Igor Lukanin. (Source: ISU bio, Krigor Studio insta)

A bit of a surprise to me as Fourati has been with Gregory and Petukhov for years with various different partners but now that they seem to be breaking through as coaches is moving on.

That does seem odd.

That does seem odd.

Maybe it’s a matter of not keeping up. They’d probably be #3 priority now that the juniors are showing good results.

 

[my little pony]

it's not as odd as calling yourself Haus of Diamonds

Not for long... (assuming she goes back to her maiden name after the divorce)

I wouldn't make that assumption. Plenty of women in this day and age choose to keep their married name post-divorce. She's been known by both professionally.
