What’s Colorado Springs like during that time, weather wise? Does it snow?

cries in Australian

I was hoping to go to my first live ice skating competition but guess not. Any news on why it’s no longer in Australia?

 

[Debbie S]

Sorry to our Aussie and Pacific Rim FSUers. I hope you'll get another ISU comp soon.

As an American who has never been to 4CC, I admit I'm excited about the prospect. I'm going to Nats, so I'll need to see how my boss feels about me taking off some more days so soon, but I've taken hardly any days this year so hopefully this will work out.

 

[Baby Yoda On Skates]

What’s Colorado Springs like during that time, weather wise? Does it snow?

Snowfall has been weird for Colorado's front range the last few years. I'm 30 minutes away from the Springs and the heaviest snowfalls we've gotten have been in March.

Needless to say I'm excited to attend a skating event close to home.

 

[alexikeguchi]

I suppose it's not too surprising since the venue was moved within Australia I believe more than once. Plus, lots of 4CC skaters train in CO or at minimum in N America, even including some Australian skaters.

Whoop! Whoop!
I adore Colorado Springs. World FS Museum & Hall of Fame + Broadmoor Hotel there. I’m even tempted to break my own “no travel/Peacock-only” rule.

 

[StitchMonkey]

What’s Colorado Springs like during that time, weather wise? Does it snow?

Yes.

It also could be warm and sunny. It also could be both within the time-frame of the competition. In Colorado it is normal to have t-shirt weather and snow within 24 hours.

Either pack for a variety of circumstances, or check the weather predictions the night before and adjust accordingly... and still cross your fingers. Weather predictions change a lot here.

 

[peibeck]

What’s Colorado Springs like during that time, weather wise? Does it snow?

The last time it was held there it was cold and a bit of snow, but nothing significant (an inch, maybe a little more) but it was very windy. The streets and sidewalks were kept pretty clear.

The airport is pretty small, so if you fly in you'll likely take a smaller plane in from Denver to CoS.

 

[flyingsit]

I’m going for sure! It’s about an 85 minute drive from my house so I’ll get a hotel room and stay down there.

 

[Spikefan]

I have United credit to use and really did not like the thought of a layover to Boston. Now I can do direct to Boston and use my credit on United for Colorado Springs. DH said, you are doing both? I said, why not?! He laughed. I’m still not decided but I do have that credit to spend by the end of the year and KC to CS is easy, even with the stop in Denver.

 

[Lanie]

I'm sorely tempted to go, now that it's in CS. I'll be in Turin for GPF, then LA after Christmas, and I was pondering US Nationals but that's a lot within the span of a month. Doesn't look too bad roundtrip from CLT (ah, were I flying out of BUR, it'd be even better but no longer am I on the West Coast!). I still have Delta eCredits and a ton of SkyMiles. Like. A ton of SkyMiles...

That trip from Denver to CO Springs by air is about a 25 minute one.

I had no concept of time when we drove from Denver (Lakewood) to CO Springs last time we visited our son, but didn't seem too long.

SWA started flying into CS las year - at least from PHX, and the prices were reasonable - at least before this recent surge. I haven't checked in a while.

 

[Vagabond]

Things were simpler when all the competitions were in Tallinn.

Twinsies.

Last time I went I remembered how some of Ice Castles was filmed there... I walked around the hotel and rink pretending Robbie Benson was going to court me! lolz

SEA [Southeast Asia] Open Trophy in Singapore has an official website and the event schedule (Sept. 1-4) is here: https://seaopenfs.com/schedule/

 

[Kathryn2001]

If anyone finds access to the latest time schedule for Skate America, I would appreciate knowing. I'm most concerned about what time the Women's event begins on Sunday. Somewhere, maybe the actual tickets I have, show events beginning at 8am, which is very early for an ISU event, but I heard that may not be the actual beginning times.

@Kathryn2001, when the colored time schedule is published online, I'm sure it will be linked in the GSD thread for 2022 Skate America - I've replied to you there:

2022 Skate America

I was told the other day in response to my e-mail asking, that they don't expect to need volunteers because CSOB will be providing. Just for those of us who weren't local and interested in helping out!

The detailed schedule hasn’t been released yet, but usually the Sunday TV coverage ends at 6pm EST so that’s when I would expect the women’s event to end if it’s on NBC.

Expiring airline miles I have to use/book this week so as fate would have it enough from Toronto to Colorado springs so booked it! Been years since in Colorado, last time hiked up Pikes peak. Beautiful area.

Mentor Cup is now listed as cancelled on ISU website

Announcements have been published for Tayside Trophy (deadlines for entries: 17 September) and Trophée Metropole Nice (deadline for entries on 18 September).

 

[Andrea82]

Mont Blanc Cup (25-27 November) in Courmayeur (Italy) cancelled.
Magic Christmas Cup (8-11 December) in Bucharest cancelled.
Junior events at Golden Spin cancelled. The Challenger event has been moved to Sisak.

Announcements have been published for all other competitions scheduled until 15th December.

 

[Andrea82]

Some cancellations now appearing on ISU calendar

Ice Lab Cup (Italy)
Jegrivag Cup (Hungary)
Spring Talents Cup Ukraine

Maria Olszewska Memorial (Poland) is moved from 9-12th February to 16-19th March.
Tallins Hotels Cup is moved one week earlier (now 16-19th February)

Both IceLab Cup and Maria Olszewska Memorial were supposed to include a Pair event. So now the chances to get minimum TES for Pairs is cut in half. Only Bavaria Open and Challenge Cup are held before the deadline for Senior Worlds and have a Pair event scheduled.
