#TeamTrainwreck 19: The Journey of a Thousand Miles Starts with a Single Splat

[alchemy void]

Schott layout says 3f3t for SP and FS.
Will we get fooled again?

yes

 

[Mad for Skating]

Enjoy your time in Grenoble @taz'smum
Tasks:
1) Not jinxing your brood too much.
2) Detailed Schott practice report. Does the 3f3t exist?
3) Phone numbers of Nadeau for @RoseRed and Samarin for @Laney
4) Lots of cheering for Sotskova, I fear she will need it.
5) Little kisscam moment with DG

Thanks.

Cheer for Denney/Frazier and Cain/LeDuc for me, please!

Thanks @Laney

I’m sitting in the hotel lobby waiting for Tiff and enjoying seeing all of the skaters coming and going

seeing the taping on tiffs knees that the tights normally hide - yikes - how on earth do skaters compete like this?

Tell her I wish her the best! I hope she will be all right soon <3 Good luck!

 

[Jeschke]

Folks, check the potential of 1st group men at IdF
1. Shulepov
2. Ponsart
3. Samohin
4. Aymoz
5. Nadeau

 

[rfisher]

My money is on Danny for most epic skate. Kevin for drama, Nic will just skate around and admire himself in the ice reflection, Ponsart and Perkov will be themselves and pretty much do nothing.

So the weekend is ending with Pairs? Huh? they should have switched it with Dance the second J&C withdraw. oh well.

I know I'm exaggerating but the withdrawal of both J/C AND Z/E make the pairs competition feel kind of like the senior Bs or 4CC before the really big names decided those competitions were worth their time. The Russian and American teams are interesting with all their potential but it still doesn't feel like much

It's certainly a letdown after last weeks Skate Canada

helllooooooo comfyballs

According to wedgie, Laurine has withdrawn...

You know, I had to unfollow his IGToo little skating, to much body (I’m the dull one here, but he has this bunch of Norwegian youngster skating boys looking up to him, some very young, and with all body pressure that is, I think he should switch his focus from flashing off in comfy balls underwear all the time, to something else... ) AND he’s teamed up with Norway’s craziest blog lady, 44 trying desperate to be 19. It could be hilarious, though mostly sad. And I’ve given up on his 3a a while ago.

[Laney]

IdF practice started with a big splat by Perkov...

 

[taz'smum]

Not a good start for my sprog - she had all her money stolen by local louts while waiting for the shuttle bus to the rink

 

[taz'smum]

According to wedgie, Laurine has withdrawn...

injury to her landing leg that is not healed enough to risk competing.

Is she ok!

 

[taz'smum]

Is she ok!

Obviously this will have affected her emotionally, so I hope she will let some of that out in the practice about to start. I hope she channels her anger!

The bus driver was great he contacted the police

I had 5 people ask me for money in my way to the rink... it was not like this last year. I already see her! Looking so much forward to see her skate!

Money can be replaced
She cannot. I hope she can find her focus on the ice.

(((Tiff))) Be safe all of you attending!

I had no clue you are already 44 @SmallFairy

According to you, this could not have been much

Bizarre off ice incidents, just sayin'

Might have been Tiff

No Russian ice dance judge visa problems

 

[Jeschke]

Any word on Schott and the mysterious 3f3t @Laney @taz'smum ?

 

[SmallFairy]

I had no clue you are already 44 @SmallFairy

You are reaching dangerous territory on so many levels here. Consider this you first warning

 

[Laney]

Ladies will come next. I just need to calm down after the ones I'm not allowed to mention here

Hase/Seegert for podium!!!

 

[Laney]

If I'm not mistaken Schott did 3T/3T . She seems to have a cold.but her jumps were good

 

[SmallFairy]

Ok, my friend in Germany dug up some of my old drawings from some Bofrost cup, I think 2002 I wasn't even there but what can be communicated over the internett is limitless. And of course I'm LOL and dying and everything right now, as I had forgot these ever existed. The third dancer is Vakthang Murvanidze. Oh man, I was so before Yuri on Ice. Hope the link works!
