OK, no Monday morning syndrome. Just not comprehensible.
That's the reason, why I was thinking, I've got sth. wrong. Same applies for 225 minus 10%. It's less than 208.160 minus 10 percent, as mentioned for women, is not 150.
Here is the official presse release from DEU with 150 ptsBut who brought up the 150? Maybe dpa got that wrong.
This sounds amazing but unsurprising.Another interesting tidbit from ISUbio: Aljona is mentioned as one of the choreographers for Hocke/Blommaert
When do you think she'll retire and start doing that? Say 2030, or is that too soon?This sounds amazing but unsurprising.
Hocke/Blommaert surely do not have much money. So this is the best moment for the queen to work on her later career as a coach.
Aliona mentioned in an interview, they might go on for another season or two.When do you think she'll retire and start doing that? Say 2030, or is that too soon?
What I do not get though: 160 minus 10 percent, as mentioned for women, is not 150.

The score is decided by the goal of german fed and german nok. (goal = this score at olympic games);
They take 2015/16 and 2016/17 into evaluation to determine these scores.
Right now, the score of 2016/17 is missing. So you can just get a hint of in which area the scores might be.
As the qualification starts in autumn and the goal is to get these scores at olympic games, 10% will be deducted.
These are the scores to date (without update of 2016/17 season, though it was mentioned it will be updated right after worlds )
Ladies: 160pts (-10% ≈144pts)
Men: 225pts (-10% ≈ 202pts)
Pairs besides S/M: 184pts (-10% ≈ 166pts)
Ice Dance: 154pts (-10% ≈ 139pts)
I assume (regarding the level of the recent world champs) that the scores will go up a bit;
Yes, I thought about something like that.I've heard rumours that Nicole Schott has replaced Ivett Toth at GP Russia. No confirmation yet, but if it's true it would be great!
She might do another challenger. Besides I'm not sure if the GP score could give you an additional score for the Olympic race and you could still keep the 3 challengers. Then the GP would be an advantage.Yes, I thought about something like that.
Would be great for Nici to enter GP.
Though not sure if the scoring at GP might work in her favour compared to the challenger the same weekend she wanted to do. (regarding the olympic race)
yeah, so many open questions with german fed nomination criteria.She might do another challenger. Besides I'm not sure if the GP score could give you an additional score for the Olympic race and you could still keep the 3 challengers. Then the GP would be an advantage.

Yeah, Hecken 2012Congrats to Schott, when was the last time we had a German lady on the elite circuit? Hecken?
Well, not for Ivett.
I loved her Eleanor Rigby program last year, and she secured an olympic spot for her country which was not given in the beginning.
Her Eleanor Rigby program was amazing. Its really a shame she got seriously injured right on olympic season. I wonder if she doesn't recover on time will HUN give up the spot or send Medgyesy instead who is a lovely skater but not Olympic calibre at all.
Wouldn't Medgyesy need to achieve the ISU minimum scores or are the ISU "minimums" not needed for the Olympics?
They are -- 20/36 vs. 27/47 -- but Medgyesy has both Worlds minimums (30.67 and 48.79). Batori has the Euros/Olys minimums. (She's scheduled for the Poland JGP in October.)The olympics minimuns are much lower than ISU Worlds Minimuns. I think they are on par with the Euros/4CC minimuns.
Yeah, Hecken 2012
I remember him well from the Hessenpokal 2012 (?) where he was still tiny but quite impressive. I wish him luck!GoFundMe of Isaak Droysen, if someone wants to support him

Bruno did not pass the oral German exam for his citizanship twice now.
Alexander König seems to be concerned.
