Gold on Gold: Lajoie & Lagha Cheer thread!

[almiranara]

Someone on Golden Skate forum pointed that it could be an error on Skate Canada's website, the junior pair team Callahan/Furman who are entered for JGP Bangkok next week still aren't listed on the international assignments page (even though their coaching team on Instagram already wished them good luck today). Their names are still on ISU's entry list so hopefully it's really an error on Skate Canada's part

Here's hoping it was a mistake!

Skate Canada is so behind with info on their web pages, I wouldn't worry about it. As of a check yesterday, they still were not up to date with the interational medal counts.

Rob Brodie interviewed them at High Performance Camp, great summary of key points from @_archivelala

Nice to have confirmation on which Bach pieces they’re using! Since people who've heard their edit said it was piano, and neither Toccata & Fugue nor Air on the G String were originally written for that instrument, I’m guessing they chose two of the famous piano transcriptions.

With regard to International Assignments, Skate Canada still has not update the webpage to show Pairs team Beau CALLAHAN / Vladimir FURMAN entered in JGP Bangkok, despite the fact the ISU Wedgie Data has them listed with a start time for the Pairs Short, which starts in 15 hours.

Unfortunately they are formally out of Nepela, ISU entry list has been updated. Hope they are okay.

they haven't had a smooth off-season since 23-24 season hopefully it's not their health but program adjustments or something

I hope that’s the case, they’ve truly been so unlucky with injuries this past quad... wasn’t 23-24 off-season a struggle for them too? I remember something about Zach having a back and shoulder strain and thus not being able to train much at all before Nepela that season. I guess we will see with Budapest Trophy entries.

yes they couldn't do any kinds of lifts for 2 months during that time, and we know Marjo got another concussion last year , it's been 3 seasons straight for now but hopefully the rest of the season will go smoothly for them

Update from new Rob Brodie article, no injury!

Ice dancers Marjorie Lajoie and Zachary Lagha have withdrawn from Nepela Memorial, a Challenger Series event set for Sept. 25-27 in Bratislava, Slovakia. We’ve been told there is no injury involved. Instead, they’ll put all of their focus on Budapest Cup in early October, which will also serve as a warmup for their appearance at Skate Canada International
