2025 - 2026 Competitions: ISU events and Olympics (Milan)

[rockstaryuzu]

A thread for the 2025-26 competitions, including Milan  

 

Also, after GP de F results this weekend... does anyone else think ice dance is dying? Because whoa....

[Faithyu]

THANK YOU! for opening this thread💜

 

What happened that you think this about ice dance?

I haven't found time to watch gp france, only saw some snippets and like half of the rhythm dance, which I absolutely loved cause it felt like a party.

 

Edit:

And I just saw that Deniss left champerie/stephan lambiel and will go without a trainer to the next gp?! I did not expect this......

[Faithyu]

Gosh, I hope Jun hasn't injured himself, that were some hard falls.....

@rockstaryuzu

Just for information, I'm watching the mens short program, skate canada - so if your also watching, I'm here to chat

Of course, if anyone else is also watching feel free to share some thoughts please.

[Faithyu]

Romans program is beautiful, he brings the music to the ice, love it. Such a shame that this one mistake was so costly.

[Faithyu]

Ok, respect for Samoilov's standing split spin.......but the program doesn't do the music justice in my opinion

[Faithyu]

Aleksandr Kiss program is fun! Enjoyed it a lot.

[Faithyu]

I just loved how Kevin got the loudest cheers in the last group when stepping on the ice......

[Faithyu]

Sorry Kazuki, but when I hear your music my brain gives me our Darja Varfolomeevs clubs program

 

So, it seems like if you dont do the knee slide you have to do a one handed cartwheel, looks like its the to do move of this season

[Faithyu]

Memola and dramatic music are a great combination, loved the secong half.

[Faithyu]

OK, I absoluetly dont get how memola can only be slightly above gogolev.....

[Faithyu]

Kao was just flying over the ice - and over the music in my opinion as well, felt a bit too rushed

 

[Faithyu]

YES, Kevin had a good day!......and burned the ice down, love it.

[Faithyu]

Ilia.....his music is still giving me a headache and the mix doesnt make sense to me, but thats just personal taste.

What stuck out to me is the lack of quality in his spins. I guess he doesnt really need them this much with all the points he gets from his jumps, but it would be nice to have them in the same kind of quality.

I haven't found time to watch gp france,

The scoring for the brand new couple from France was wildly out of line

It's boot trouble again. And at this rate he will injure himself
