I don't know really Lots of money goes into our winter sport programs, and we usually win medals, but these OG are wild. Our cross country is a bit like Russian ladies skating actually. Do well or you are replaced. It happened during the OG most recent

If the skate gods decree a choice between Susie and Ross___Ross meet you new friend Bus. Don't worry about those wheels. They only hurt a minute

One of my favorite knC moment of the season was Euros after Dima's free skate. Rukavtsin was about the break the boy's fingers he was holding them so tightly. Let's hope he gets another chance to rock at Worlds.

And she did it while skating clean! Level 4 spins and steps, no jumps popped into singles, no splats, nothing the least bit messy!

Ponsart is entered for Worlds over Aymoz . And Laurine gets the ladies spot, so it's one last outing for BadSandy.

 

[Enchanted]

What is going on with Aymoz? Is he injured?

 

[SmallFairy]

Someone in the worlds-thread wrote that Bob has said they won't be going even if they're on the entry list as of now. So no #missionbronze? I guess it's for Anna and Luca instead.

 

[SmallFairy]

This one is a favourite...

I would think that the bronze medal would either go to Hubbell/Donohue or the Shibutani's - whoever doesn't get silver will get bronze, but then again, with World's in Italy maybe it is theirs to lose.

Ahem

Very fitting description of our boy in the icenetwork olympic fashion recap. Someone got our memo:

I mean, if you're going to run into a wall at your Olympic debut, you may as well look good doing it.

Ponsart is entered for Worlds over Aymoz . And Laurine gets the ladies spot, so it's one last outing for BadSandy.

I bet we will not see Aymoz ever again until he miraculously gets a quad or Didier dies. Whatever happens first.

My worlds entries reactions:

Men
Brezina: Retire already and give space to the Belohradsky siblings. You are no longer Bel Ami worthy!
Aymoz: Joining the ranks of Hocquaux, Tesson an other unworthy skaters in the eyes od Didier.
Rizzo: Fine but isnt it too much?? Give Junior worlds to Grassl instead.
No Jun-Hwan for KOR. I know it was according to the rules set but this is their chance to get 2 spots next year!!
I agree with UKR fed ditching Paniot, he had 2 chances and blew it both big time.
Only one Javi for ESP and is the one that sucks
Do I have to suffer through Velvet Boy once again? I can not believe Im saying this but Id rather have a fridge break with Rozzz Miner.

Ladies:
Overall as expected. Happy for Gerli and Leccardi.
No Meite as sub, retired?
Will Higuchi crack under pressure or not? JPN deserves like 5 spots.
Sotskova again zz

Pairs.
Great to see 30 entries but that means half of the field won't make it to the LP Another Battle royale during the SP.
Luba & Dylan.. All the struggles for nothing in the end

Dance
I dont like the overscoring Coomes & Buckland have been receiving but if that means 2 spots for the younger teams next year Im OK with it.
I want top 5 for Stepanova & Bukin so bad. Redemption!!!
Did the Danes realised their oly hopes are null and retired already?
Cappellini & Lanotte. Its going to be a sad farewell..

Jiri!

I won't comment on that exact wording

Only one Javi for ESP and is the one that sucks

No discrimination in here

Do I have to suffer through Velvet Boy once again? I can not believe Im saying this but Id rather have a fridge break with Rozzz Miner.

In the end, all join the party

Will Higuchi crack under pressure or not? JPN deserves like 5 spots.

I fear, I fear.

Did the Danes realised their oly hopes are null and retired already?

Did the Danes realize P/G are a weak #1 in the next quad and they easily can replace them changing feds?

I dont like the overscoring Coomes & Buckland have been receiving but if that means 2 spots for the younger teams next year Im OK with it.

#BabyBuckland for everyone!

Cappellini & Lanotte. Its going to be a sad farewell..

Dare you going there, dare you!
