Japan's will to sabotage their own ladies field is f:censor:ing incredible.

They better sand Mana to f:censor:ing challenger, so she can get SB, because I'm about to lose my f:censor:ing mind.

How on earth it happened that the likes of Kurakova got TWO gp assignments, but a girl with 3a not a single one?!

 

Watch them ending without a single lady at GPF in Osaka. THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DESERVE

The idea to replace the usual short and free programs has appeared at ISU for a long time. According to tele-sport.ru, the first mentions of new formats similar to this one appeared eight years ago in the judges' reports from the competitions.

(...)

Lakernik said in our recent interview that with regard to significant initiatives, which include technical / artistic programs, ISU “needs time". The meaning of this phrase is not obvious, however, upon a more detailed examination of the problem, everything falls into place.

The fact is that, according to tele-sport.ru, ISU still does not have a clear and completely ready-made scheme of how technical and artistic programs might look. Over the years of discussions, the union managed to develop only an approximate plan of action, which cannot be the basis for important changes. They were not honored for more - and it was not up to that, if objectively.
Currently, the ISU has a working group whose tasks are to develop new formats of competitions. The question of the technical and artistic program is entrusted to them, so, in fact, the union has only now taken care of a comprehensive study and detailed formation of the proposal. How long it will take is unknown, but the process is unlikely to be quick.

But there are other obstacles to the revolutionary idea. According to tele-sport.ru, the division into technical and artistic programs is not supported by the top management of ISU. They, in turn, rely on television and the press. There is a risk that the new format will turn out to be unattractive and obscure for the media and broadcasters, which will entail an audience drain and the loss of contracts. For ISU, whose financial position is rather precarious, this could end in disaster.

In addition, according to our information, some influential national federations, including the Russian one, are against the division. And it is unlikely that their interests will be able to convince them to step on their throats.

If some ISU leaders and also Russia are against the changes then I don't think it'll happen at all. It sounds also controversial that they claim ISU still does not have a clear scheme of how the programs might look, because Lakernik gave quite clear ideas about them a few years ago and he also said the changes will probably happen post Beijing. So it seems it was all Lakernik's idea but not many people support this proposal.

And thank God for that, it was the dumbest idea I'd heard of in sport up until they decided to go ahead with the Tokyo Olympics in the teeth of a pandemic

So is it true that the ISU has permanently banned plushie tossing? Or is that only for the duration of the pandemic?

It's stated in a separate Annex for guidelines for ISU events during the pandemic so it should be applicable only for the duration of the pandemic. I don't get why some people are upset.

No way, one of RusFed favourite puppets suspeded and only for Olympic season.🤔

 

ISU sent her for a year vacation and shill will be back in 2022. Will we ever see a big fed judge getting suspended or is it only for small federations? ISU should care about the systematic corruption because otherwise suspending one small fed judge and then not doing anything for 3-4 years won't help to get the system better.

In order to combat the spread of coronavirus infection COVID-19, the government authorities of France issued a decree according to which the Russian Federation and a number of other countries were assigned to the "red" zone. In this regard, all citizens of the Russian Federation who come to France who have not been vaccinated against the coronavirus with an EU-approved vaccine are required to undergo a 10-day quarantine with verification of compliance by the competent French authorities. Citizens of countries from the "red" zone vaccinated with vaccines approved in the EU undergo a 7-day quarantine. Since none of the vaccines used in the Russian Federation has yet been approved in the EU, all Russian citizens are considered unvaccinated.

     This information was sent to the FFKKR by the French Ice Sports Federation, and also confirmed by the French Consulate in Moscow.

     The Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) also learned that the option of entering France in transit through the country of the "green" zone (according to the documents of the French government authorities) without a 30-day stay in this country before entering France in these conditions is not legal ... An attempt to enter France through a country of the "green" zone with the provision of inaccurate information about the duration of stay in this country may lead not only to a refusal to enter France for these competitions, but also to a possible ban on entry into the Schengen countries in the future.

     Given the impossibility of participation of Russian figure skaters in the first and second stages of the ISU Grand Prix series among juniors in these circumstances, the FFKKR turned to the International Skating Union (ISU) with a proposal to redistribute the quotas of Russian figure skaters from both stages in France and transfer them to other stages of the series in those countries where entry will be possible without restrictive quarantine measures. The FFKKR was also proposed to revise the criteria for selecting participants for the ISU Grand Prix Final among juniors this season.

     The ISU Council, having considered the arguments presented by the FFKKR, agreed with these proposals. Currently, the FFKKR is agreeing with the ISU on the possibility of redistributing quotas to other stages of the series.
