Recently I rewatched the pairs event from the last Olympics. I know there is no point in crying over spilt milk but I so enjoyed the long program by Charlie and Julianne. When they were on, they had something special. I hope this is not the end for her. Maybe too many injuries and other issues but I really do miss Julianne.

Yes, indeed Julianne and Charlie had something special, unrepeatable....oh, their SP at 2015- a masterpiece, a masterpiece of pure joy!
Lubov seems to be more or less an intellectual skater, she rather skates with her mind, reason and she likes to do 'tricks'( when asked in an interview before Canadina Nationals what she enjoys mostly in skating, Lubov's answered 'to do tricks', while Charlie- ' performing') IMO it might be hard to blend with Lubov.
I agree. Julianne and Charlie had great unison, and despite the small-ish twist and throws they were my favorite Canadian pair. I hope Julianne comes back, but I understand that she might have been burned by the experience. I also agree that I don't see Lubov and Charlie blending very well as a pair - I know they are a new team, but their strengths don't seem to gel. They have her flexibility and his strength in their favor, but the twist is still small and her jumps are still inconsistent.
It just still frustrates me that he dumped Julianne because he thought he had more potential, when IMO they were the Canadian pair with the most potential for this quad. And then partnering with Lubov who had fewer injuries but more inconsistency. But alas. Onwards and upwards!
As far as I know Séguinhasn’t resumed training and still have concussion symptoms. Maybe he didn’t end the relation as it should (read crap) they could have not continue.
Considering they had their competitive programs choreographed (and had therefore paid for said choreography), had two Grand Prix assignments scheduled, and were apparently starting to be fitted for their new costumes, it doesn't really sound like that was the case.Perhaps the long time before he announced their split was spent trying to convince her to give up thoughts of resuming her skating career.
I’m basing my comment on Julianne’s own recollection of the story. She still wanted to continue and claimed she was blindsided - I think it was posted here last year. So I don’t think it was “crap” when it’s the only first person story we have in this case.
For me, it was their amazing connection on the ice that set them apart. They actually looked at each other while they were skating. It's so rare to see a team that is as much of a "unit" as these two were, even compared to teams in off ice relationships. There was also a freshness and joy to their skating that was wonderful to watch. It's so sad the partnership had to end, but pairs is a tough discipline both physically and emotionally, and splits are inevitable.but JS/CB had something special - even compared to the top world pair teams. IMO.
He skated with Olivia Boys-Eddy last season (trained in Oakville) and they represented Austria.I've never heard of Chloe's new partner. Details from anyone who knows more about him?
He's Austrian, has recruited various foreign partners, mostly recently he was skating with Olivia Boys-Eddy last year.I've never heard of Chloe's new partner. Details from anyone who knows more about him?

I find her [Kirsten] mesmerizing and I enjoy KW/TM -- but JS/CB had something special - even compared to the top world pair teams. IMO.

You apparently won't have to replace the WORD before the number in the link - it seems to work.
Not only you, very many loved them (I dare to say, that particularly in Europe); this pair had that quality which is... beyond words to describe, because it comes from the very soul and gives a pure joy to watch. Not everyone can do this. Julianne had that gift to bring it out of the pair.My point is not whether they should have continued together, whether her injuries meant she shouldn't skate, and how Charlie handled the break. This is way too demanding a sport in all respects to continue if either skater is just not feeling it and I respect his decision.
I saw Julianne/Charlie live several times, the last one in Vancouver right before the games, and I loved them. I find most pairs rather generic to me now with a few tricks here and there. For me KMT/MM have come together nicely and I find her mesmerizing and I enjoy EW/TM -- but JS/CB had something special - even compared to the top world pair teams. IMO.

Bruno found him I think in Europe when he was travelling doing seminars. Convinced him to come to Canada to train and they would figure out a partner for him.
Yes, last I heard they will skate for Austria.
Apparently he's huge. Like 6'3" or something.
So what has happened with his partnership with Olivia Boys Eddy?He has been skating in Canada with Bruno for a few years already. Last year he skated with Olivia Boys Eddy and the year before that with Sarah Jane (?) in junior.
oh I’m sorry to hear this newsJustine Brasseur and Mark Bardai are done according to her instagram. She is looking for new partner.
