#2 KAETLYN OSMOND : CANADA'S SWEETHEART

Rock2 said:
What I want to know is if the plates and pins come out. Langlois took them out before Olympic year and I think Weaver did, too. She will risk ongoing issues with discomfort and inflammation with them in, I think, if she doesn't remove the hardware. Just means another 4-6 weeks off the ice but that's no big in the grand scheme of things.

Yes, Bev Smith tweeted during Canadians that there are plans in place to have the hardware removed.

Oh thank God. Thanks for that. From what I understand there is a specific time to do that. Of course, bones have to heal...but then if you leave them in for more than a year or so the bones grow into/over the hardware such that you can't remove them without breaking the bones again. So I imagine they will come out in the next month or two.

Saw Kaetlyn at the mall today doing a run through of La Vie en Rose. The program itself is actually really nice. I think she is such a star and really does have "it." Even though she only did singles and her spins weren't quite there (I think she's only been back on the ice for a few weeks?) her performance still grabs you. I really enjoy how she uses her whole body in her movements and the moves look...organic. Hopefully she'll stay healthy working towards next season.

National champ getting back on her blades in Brantford
Osmond said the next competitive season in the fall has been “creeping up” on her faster than she would like, but she looks forward to getting back down to business.

Her goal will be nothing short of another Canadian national championship in 2016 and strong showings at international competitions.

“That’s what I’m aiming for – getting back to the same level I was during my first year of senior,” she said.

She has been sidelined for many months, but is slowly regaining her strength, and last week began performing triples during practice routines.

"They're coming back really easy," Osmond said. "I'm just missing one of my triples."

Osmond is planning to compete this summer at events in Detroit, Alberta and British Columbia, and then attend a national team camp.

Very good news. :) Does anyone recall if the Detroit summer competition was livestreamed last year? Wild Rose & BC Summerskate shouldl be.

Also, a video of one of her recent performances in NL has been posted on her facebook fan page.
 
Very excited to here she will be at BC SummerSkate! That should really shake up the senior women's event.

Skate Detroit (Senior Ladies should be July 23 or 24 & 25, 2015) has never been live streamed :(, unfortunately (though the possibility of it happening was mentioned here in past years), probably due to technical/speed of connection issues and cost.

She was at Edmonton City TV last February to talk about the Skate to Great initiative.

It's great to see how much she has matured during the year. She's always been good in interviews but if you compare this interview to those she gave right after Sochi, there is a marked difference. She is much calmer and more articulated now.

I agree! I think you mean she's more articulate now? ;-)
