According to Plushenko he and other coaches from his academy won't be able to go to LP with Serafima. He has shows in Europe and other coaches don't have an american visa
He's asked other Russian coaches to look after Serafima

Here, here to USFSA for filling the spot.

As long as it is not Eteri.

As long as it is not Eteri.

Why? She left Eteri because of her family problems (she couldn’t live on her own in Moscow and her mother had to return back to St Petersburg).
And it’s Sergei Dudakov, who is going there with Polina. Eteri and Daniil will stay in Moscow

The grid is coming up with an error, so I'm assuming it's in the midst of being re-posted. The Sakhanovich for Pogorilya switch is reflected in the event roster:

Who are in line to replace T/T?

Izzy, what's going on?

From the other forum, they say Tkachenko could not get the Islael citizenship.

Makes no harm for GP; euros and worlds.
So no passport and they are done?!

I can't believe Papa Boris is failing

 

[chameleonster]

Is that it? If they're splitting because they can't go to the Olympics, you would think they would know further in advance that they were going to withdraw.

 

[alj5]

Well just to play devil's advocate - if they just found out that it was 100% a no to citizenship in the past few days, I can see where they'd be pretty devastated and just be questioning their whole partnership/career. I still hope to see them at Euros and Worlds.

They usually recruit jewish skaters from everywhere on earth, which Tkachenko is not.

Looks like we won‘t see T/T at the Olympics:

I guess the rabbis at the Interior Minister looked at Tkachenko and said, Cossack, nope. It's a shame because I really like that team together.

 

[clairecloutier]

Sorry to hear that about T/T. I've always liked them together.

 

[Carolla5501]

Tobias should have been aware of this risk, she's a professional country changer!

Liam Firus is now on the list for men at Skate America.

Wonder if his brother Shane and Carolane will get the open dance spot?

 

[Jeschke]

So happy for Firus

 

[kwanfan1818]

Happy for Firus

Sad for Hendrickx.

 

[Garden Kitty]

Sorry to hear about T/T. I never thought too much about Tobias, until I saw her at a Skate America. She had such a great attitude and was in the audience cheering loudly for her friends and training mates. She just seemed like such a cheery person that I was really impressed. It's hard for any skater who has put in so much time, effort and money and isn't able to achieve their goals whether for injury or other reason.

Who did Firus replace? I guess he is back from Poland now.His coach is already going re:Meaghan & Eric. Prob someone else can drive while he sleeps. He had falls in Poland..maybe wants to redeem...I do love his program.

 

[kwanfan1818]

Firus replaces Hendrickx.

 

[barbarafan]

Firus replaces Hendrickx.

What happened to Hendrickx? His skating is lovely.I hope he is not injured?

After all of Daddy Tobias' investments???!!! At least Isabella has already fulfilled her Olympic dream, skating for Lithuania in 2014, with then-partner Stagniunas.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Ive been so busy this week.

Could someone provide me pop all the withdrawals and replacements for SkAM that have happened???

Im so lost......

 

[kwanfan1818]

I don't see anything on Hendrickx's social media yet to explain why he's out.

• Firus is in for Hendrickx.
• Sadovsky is in for Petrov.
• Yan is in for Cha.
• Sakhanovich is in for Pogorilaya.

Did I miss anyone?

Choi and Tobias/Tkachenko have not been replaced to date.

 

[clairecloutier]

Big kudos to USFS/Skate America for filling these late empty slots so fast!!

 

[PRlady]

I wonder if all those foreigners know it's hellish to get to Lake Placid on Thanksgiving weekend.

Jorik Hendrickx is out because of medical reasons

"Je suis malade ... but for real So sad I had to withdraw from Skate America because of medical reasons... It was a very hard decision! #SkateAmerica #GP#roadtopyeongchang2018"
