I love everything about this program, including the costume as it is, so another vote for please don't change a thing. And goodness yes, slight make up. Please. Let's rock that boat

Yes, should be the 28th, don't think they'll postpone it some more. And yup, I meant the second Zu is announced, the tickets usually go poof rather quickly. Though, with it not being Paris, then maybe it won't be so bad. Fingers crossed you're online when we find out so that you can do a quick buy then!

Joy

I'd snag the IdF tickets now for the men, if I were you. If you truly want to go, and they are quite cheap considering some of the prices we pay, it's an option to consider. Tbh, if I were planning on going in case he were there, I would simply buy them then if not, try to sell them off.

I must admit to being insanely curious because I don't really remember him doing choreo before and this is a high level of athletes, plus not his discipline. I am sure they contributed but can't wait to see how this turned out! Knock on wood.

Yup. November 2–4 for the WTH is it going to be GP and November 9–11 for NHK. Which is why I think it's more likely it's NHK and IdF, that is November 23–25.

You can also use PMs here, if that is convenient (let your mouse hover over her avatar; a boxie pops up. Bottom left says Message)

I don't remember the last time it has been so wild! Now when the assignments come out, I am ready for the blood bath woo

About 4 days to go, then you get to keel over (no worries, happens to us all!)

A part of me would like that but I don't think that either party there would enjoy a double meeting. I think it more likely Zu gets Shoma and Nathan, for NHK and IdF respectively, for his GPs.

Wait, Ciz choreographed their short? Wow

I don't think we can conclude she has left the group, due to leaving the camp (which is what that person is doing btw) but knowing she's still sick ... goodness. Everything crossed she recovers fully, whatever it is, poor kiddo.

It's why it's the alternate, I am sure. S. Korea due to the Olympics too though it has priority because certainly ISU also wants an Asian GP but if they're stuck they'll go with someone else who is mostly ready, and that's Italy. We'll see soon enough, but hey what's a season without at least one long haul flight

When CoC withdrew, the first alternate was S. Korea and the second Milano if Korea couldn't do it. And from the rumors going around, it might actually be Milano.

Hello 3A, how are you these days...

Ha! Now that's something to see. Starting from the basics indeed! Good old TCC. And great that Jason and Zhenya seem to be connecting. Thanks for all the pics! Her English is good enough and the newbies can help each other out, what with the additional welcome of the old-timers. Hopefully it's a good season for all of them.

Should be around the 28th. Don't think that the whole CoC being swapped for either Korea or Milano will matter much so I think we're still set for the same date. Almost there.

A bit more than a week to go.

Keep an eye on one of the bigger skating twitters, like Jackie's. He usually has it up in moments. Am not sure there is a different way tbh.

That's not really the point, at least not one I was making. Kosto's my favorite Junior and in general, I think a talent that's rarely seen but repeating the music combo is unnecessary when there was this whole mess earlier and she's more than capable of skating to great variety of styles, and there's so much music out there, so it's not like they are forced to give her this. I'm sure she'll do great with the SP music, but yes. If it has to be it then NR's R&J would be probably best for her. Plus we'd get another bingo!

Isn't that the truth. It actually took me a while to get my sleep cycle at least somewhat under control after all of that (so worth it for Zu though). But heck, it wouldn't be skating season if we weren't up in the middle of the night, bleary eyed staring at a tiny screen and yelling my livestream died!

I just saw that. Well that's a real pity but I wish him all the best in the future!

That's perfect for her, good news!

Nope. I guess they're going for warhorses, probably due to the new rules. Curiously, that SP combo is the exact combo of Zhenya's FS from last season that she dropped in favor of Anna K. Kind of wish they didn't do that. Though Kosto, she can skate it well.

Kostornaya's programs SP - Max Richter - Departure (Lullaby) + November FS- R&J
