is US pairs finished? we have a team that cannot stand each other (allegedly), a team that is injured and retirement seems very likely, a team USFS invested in ALOT and now they’ve unfollowed each other and are/have split? 😭

@MartinaFrammart If the follow the bullet points it could prevent some of the bizarre GOE we’ve seen. But nothing to hold judges accountable. And effortless should be required for +4/5.

The ISU has released a new communication. Now we have a choreographic spin, and each choreographic element provides new scope for judges to manipulate scores. And for the +4 and +5, the elements are no longer required to be effortless. The ISU knows how to destroy a sport.

@rockerskating Just heard your news of the week. Happy for C/H but no mention of why Shin/Nagy aren’t going. You mentioned why other alternates weren’t going so wondered.

@sampanda24 I get the sense that she is more into those things. And maybe he just wanted to rest.

@rockerskating Sad for them but glad Chan/howe get to go. Go Boston! Very curious how many spots we will end up with now.

@chazzleazzle Well we know why chock/bates didn’t. And I suspect piper & paul wanted nothing to do with the French either.

not to cornplate an event that happened a month ago but it stood out to me that none of the ice dance medalists shook hands/hugged the other medalists during the medal ceremony but all medalists in the other disciplines did 🧐

@AnythingGOE @choreosequence Perhaps federations should be threatened w loss of accreditation if their suspended coaches attend events?

@Devin_Heroux @cbcsports Can someone explain why they need so much time between the end of Olympics and start of Paralympics? I thought there was less time in some past years (prob flawed memory 😂) but I’ve never understood why so long. Buildings, ice,& snow are there.

There were many Canadian athletes who voiced their concerns over snow conditions at the Paralympics and suggested moving the Games earlier. I put that question to IPC President Andrew Parsons, about what would have to happen to move the Paralympics. Here’s his response.

@mfgus @Amethyst_Eyes93 The deadline was October, 2025. Since bids are still open, it’s unlikely they received anything of value. Moving up the deadline for bids would probably have not done a thing to change that—and in fact, made it worse.

I still can’t believe USFS is waiting so long to announce 2027 Nats. Like, the temporary post-Olympics boost is exactly the time where they should be trying to sell tickets and marketing the hell out of it

@mfgus Yes. The deadline for withdrawal/substitution is right before the short program draw (which is usually the day before the short program)

@WestphalErin @Amethyst_Eyes93 An organization could set their deadline for bids earlier to have city by nationals. If they wanted to. Very poor planning on their part

@mfgus @Amethyst_Eyes93 It’s a bid process—cities have to want to host—so it’s likely USFS has no bid to make an announcement. Back when figure skating was more popular, the bids were probably on time and more competitive.

@Devin_Heroux I have wondered why they don’t have some overlap between Olympics & para Olympics in winter games. I think that would be an amazing display of sport —for all — and better conditions. Just a thought. This years 3 week gap seemed like a lot.

We have a rainstorm in Cortina. It’s pouring directly above the para alpine and snowboard venues. And they’ve now moved the para snowboard banked slalom finals from Saturday to Friday. Trying to get this all in before there’s no snow left.

We are at least nearing the end of the withdrawals. Note that people could (and have already) changed their minds since the Olympics
