  1. No kidding. If you or I kissed the ice the way he's been doing during hydroblades, we'd have chapped lips and a cold sore afterwards, at the very least! Normal beauty rules do not apply to that man!
  2. I can only dream! I never got past bunny hops.
  3. New Romsky video. He's busy getting his jumps back. note what he says about the effort it takes to hold his arms in against the rotational force in a 3A:
  4. This would be more impressive if Plush himself was among the jumpropers...
  5. I just know there'll be people asking them multiple times about Yuzu.
  6. No, no, he's already sacrificed 2A for this purpose
  7. So Gabby is back for another season. That's good. About Asher Hill....I had no idea of the story until CBC Olympics covered it this week, and his point is correct: making a statement of support means nothing if the actions don't match. As for the Brampton club assigning it's own internal investigator who sided with the perpetrator and didn't do a proper investigation of the racism directed against Asher...I hate to say it, but that kind of cronyism is very common in amateur sports clubs, in my experience. Most of them have a clique or three that try to run everything and crush anyone who gets in their way/doesn't "fit in"/isn't their idea of the 'right' kind of athlete. I've seen similar behaviour in swim teams and soccer clubs and sometimes it takes athletes leaving the club en masse to effect change...anyway, that kind of thing is all the more reason for sports governing bodies like Skate Canada to take complaints seriously and investigate them correctly. So there's multiple failures at different levels here, the racism is only the beginning. Another example: https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/hockey-is-not-for-everyone-akim-aliu-nhl
  8. Interesting, Tuktik. https://www.rt.com/sport/490765-elizaveta-tuktamysheva-evgenia-medvedeva-canada-reasons/
  9. But don't you think the Chinese would rather see Boyang win? He's also very popular
  10. I know! I'm dying for Kose to get off their behinds and re-launch our global muse already!
  11. Interesting that the top two franchises originated in Japan (and I'm cheering Hello Kitty on, she's my favorite!) and also that Pooh is bigger than Mickey.
  12. and here I was hoping for fresh Yuzu....
  13. Given the trouble it took me just to find a few things, now I understand why they get upset!
  14. Any indication when these were taken?
  15. We're getting way off topic here, but in my opinion the most important thing for a mother giving birth is that she feel comfortable, happy, and secure...I personally wouldn't need my husband (if i had one) around for that, but I would need to be physically in a location that felt right to me. But as I said, it's an individual choice.
  16. You mean the equivalent of a green card marriage? I think so but the people who pursue that avenue are not usually US citizens but from other places. And it's a two-year process. A This one? In the case I mentioned, I believe the wife opted to stay in the US rather than come home, I can't recall. If it was me I'd be kissing the husband goodbye and telling him not to worry, I'd be fine, and then I'd come on home. But that's me.
  17. I could actually use one, to be honest. Right now I have a cloth mask that ends up crumpled in the bottom of my purse. Something to contain it would be very handy.
  18. CCRA border agents are being super-strict at the land border. Non-essential travel from the US to Canada is prohibited right now and the border people are taking a very very wide interpretation of 'non-essential', going so far as to permit a pregnant Canadian citizen to return here but block entry to her US citizen husband. There's no point in speculating on any of this, guys. The Canadian border is currently sewn up tight until the end of June. Unless you're willing to enter strict quarantine, and that's only for arrivals by air. Don't even bother trying to come by land. As frustrating as it is, we need to give it all another month and then see.
  19. Consensus opinion here is that ACI likely won't take place with any audience in attendance...s o I personally haven't even bothered to look for tickets at all.
  20. That's what I did for the ones i got, but i didn't want to have to do it for every single competition I was looking up...what I wanted was a page with the list of competitions that had only a single link for each competition going directly to the detailed protocol .pdfs with no clicks in between...guess it doesn't exist!
