2026 Canadian Championships - Senior Rhythm Dance and Free Dance

[marbri]

So the real competition is within the next two teams, nail biter.

 

[skategal]

Fabbri/Ayer are so good but I hope they skate to something a bit more dramatic next year.

 

[honey]

I find them very easy to watch and quite enjoyed that.

 

[Lara]

I hadn’t really wished for a fourth spot until now. Handled the pressure very well.

 

[danafan]

I was just looking up ISU season best scores and realize that Lauriault and Le Gac have a higher score than Lajoie/Lagha (in the free and overall). They are also well ahead of Fabbri/Ayer. So it will be interesting to see how this plays out.

 

[Karen-W]

Fabbri/Ayer are a typical mid-level team that skates prettily to bland, inoffensive music. Crossing my fingers for Les Gacs.

 

[marbri]

Whatever happens I had tears in my eyes. I believe this music is personal for Paul and if I am correct it is for the same situation I am going through with my own family member and well I get it

 

[Karen-W]

That was so great for Les Gacs! TES dropped off the screen before their final element was input, I think, but I hope they've done enough!

 

[marbri]

What a nail biter. TES basically tied with F/A. I'd give the nod to LesGacs.

 

[skategal]

Romain left it all on the ice!!

Great skate. Great program.

Glad I’m not a judge.

 

[BlueRidge]

Can I breathe yet?

 

[honey]

What a nail biter. TES basically tied with F/A. I'd give the nod to LesGacs.

The last element wasn’t in yet when the score tracker stopped. They are well ahead.

 

[skategal]

What a nail biter. TES basically tied with F/A. I'd give the nod to LesGacs.

Me too based on the program.

It’s so compelling.

 

[danafan]

Lauriault and Le Gac did it.

 

[BlueRidge]

LeGacs that was just a mesmerizing program

 

[Karen-W]

LOL! Love the reaction from Scott & Adria!

Yes!!!!! Scott gets to sport both Team Canada and Team USA gear next month! So happy for Les Gacs!

 

[marbri]

Congrats to LesGacs

 

[Belsornia]

Impressed at Le Gac’s ability to sing along to lyric-less music.

Strong skates from both teams but I thought Fabbri/Ayer’s superior skating skills really showed today (though their FD is not really for me).

 

[BlueRidge]

Very happy for Marie Jade and Romain!

 

[honey]

Is this a new dress for Marjorie? I don’t remember the feather details before. It’s beautiful.

 

[tangerine dream]

Love LesGacs. What they may lack in elegance and line is more than made up for me by being one of the few teams doing really interesting programs with unusual shapes and positions.

 

[Karen-W]

Is this a new dress for Marjorie? I don’t remember the feather details before. It’s beautiful.

Maybe? I can't say that I recall her dress from the GP season, though I certainly remember Zac's shiny satin tunic.

 

[marbri]

I can't wait to compare their L4 twizzles here to their other competitions....

 

[BlueRidge]

"Honestly Ted, this doesn't happen to me very often... I don't have many words"

yes Kaitlyn we know

 

[Alilou]

Zac needs a new top. I find the floaty shiny one distracting. Something more form fitting would work better.

 

[Belsornia]

Dance spin 4? That looked to me like a bobble from Zak in the transition, though they recovered quickly.

 

[skategal]

Beautiful White Swan by LaLa.

Loved it.

 

[marbri]

One more to go and I can finally sleep

eta... this wasn't a diss to the skating, I am tired, watching comps in NA messes with my circadian rhythm

 

[honey]

My favorite thing about this is when Marjorie laughs at the scores because they are so high lol.

Beautifully skated.

I'm listening to the French broadcast even though I speak zero French. I prefer my skating without commentary and I find it pretty easy to tune out speaking if it's in a language I don't understand. I do enjoy hearing some of these French names actually pronounced correctly. The way the commentator said Poirier really tickled my ears, it was beautiful.
