2026 CDN Jr./Sr. Sectionals/Challenge & Skate Canada Trophy

[kylet3]

Ouch. rough outing for Gabby today

 

[danafan]

Not a great second half jump wise. Still a remarkable comeback season that isn't over yet.

 

[beckab81]

Daelman has so much natural talent, but seems to tighten up so much in competition. I hope she's able to fully put it back together one day.

 

[kylet3]

First? For that... ok...

 

[honey]

Daleman got some pretty generous calling there. Combo called rotated and no flip edge call either. Second lutz didn’t look all the way around to me either.

She can still do these jumps clearly, but there’s a combination of going after it way too hard and then also tightening up and slowing down at points.

Minsol is having a really rough day as well.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Minsol looks very tight today. I'm not even necessarily referring to the mistakes; I feel like she had much better speed and flow yesterday.

 

[danafan]

Daleman into first.
It's worth noting the top 2 (not counting Shiryaeva who technically has a bye) will skate in the final warmup group at nationals. So Daleman still has a good shot at that.

 

[kylet3]

Kwon is... ok... but jumps are tight or UR... not sure where this places. She'll be at nationals but she's got work to do.

 

[Desperado]

Daelman has so much natural talent, but seems to tighten up so much in competition. I hope she's able to fully put it back together one day.

She had much more attack at Ice Challenge and performed so much better. Not sure why back in Canada things went awry.

I rather she underperformed here than at Nationals though.

 

[danafan]

I thought Kwon would win this competition easily. Oh well.

 

[shutterbug]

Kwon is... ok... but jumps are tight or UR... not sure where this places. She'll be at nationals but she's got work to do.

I'm going to be very curious to see her live. Not blown away by her as of yet.

 

[danafan]

Kwon into fourth overall.

I am very curious to see how Reese Rose handles the pressure of skating last.

 

[kylet3]

Starting to come apart for Rose

 

[JoannaLouise]

I was wondering how Reese would handle being in first after the short. Her LP has been a bit of a struggle, but hopefully this will be a valuable learning experience for her.

 

[kylet3]

Rose's jumps when they are on can be a thing of beauty. I really hope she can learn from this and put it together. Overall I still think Schizas is probably the favourite to win but it will be a bloodbath and I hope everyone skates their best.

 

[danafan]

Too many mistakes for Reese though she did show some fight and this is a step up overall really.
I was looking up some of the ISU bios for these skaters. Rose and Woodley have the same birthday (they turned 17 on November 14) so can compete senior internationally next season.

 

[shutterbug]

I was wondering how Reese would handle being in first after the short. Her LP has been a bit of a struggle, but hopefully this will be a valuable learning experience for her.

Experience is a tough teacher sometimes. IIRC, this is her 1st event at the senior level (?), so lots to learn.

So that means Breken and that makes a Manitoba girl's heart happy. A skater from Dauphin, Manitoba- WOW!

Yes she has a lot of fans here who are very happy to see that she has qualified!

 

[puglover]

Just catching up and watching the free dance. Man, I loved that free program by Lily and Nathan. Now they have chemistry! I see a Moir family member in the K&C with them and it says they represent Ilderton SC. Do they train at IAM with Scott and team as well or they are training only in Ilderton?

They’re at IAMO, but represent Ilderton

 

[4rkidz]

Just catching up! So excited for Breken it’s been a tough year with injuries and no competitions since the summer. I am sure the next six weeks of extra training will help. Happy for Gabby she skates so fast and powerful, if she can get some consistency I expect her to do well.

I think the young ones still junior age did well as seniors and obviously still learning to handle the pressure. Good job overall. Congrats to the top 15 who made it to Nationals.
