And yes, probably. Who knows, they might yet manage to do something as I am sure the IOC really wants them there but I'm not holding my breath. It's such a shame as they're a fantastic pair, and just guuuuuh. To train so hard, get that spot against all odds and then ... It's the Olympics. There's no possible way they would have forgotten, so it's probably the regime as a whole forbidding them to go (iirc NK didn't let its other winter sports team go to Olys qualifying events) : / Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just sad, they are very good skaters, who trained hard to get the spot for the Olympic Games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, although the article on them I read said the IOC do have an interest in letting them go in the interests of promoting peace through sport so if there is a wildcard for them to offer, I hope they would give it to them. Such a shame but they would have little say in it all, I guess it's already miraculous they're allowed to go internationally to regular skating events ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetwater Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 From Absolute Skating's Skate America Day 3 report: Quote Daniel Samohin was chilling on a couch a bit further in the place, so my friends and I then walked over to him as we didn’t want to leave him out and ended up talking to him for a long while. He said I can let you all know he is doing well. He had his arm in a sling and his shoulder is doing ok. He has a pulled muscle in his arm but no major damage, which we were relieved to hear. He’s off from jumping for a couple weeks so he will take the time to work on skating skills. http://www.absoluteskating.com/index.php?cat=reports&id=2017skateamerica-day3-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sallycinnamon Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Ivett skated for the first time in the season today, her SP is an AC/DC medley. She said they chose this music to recall the judges of their younger years I'm not sure if it will work, we'll see. She also said that she still feels pain in her leg , but she's optimistic and confident that she can be in top form in the second half of the season. She fell on her opening 3T-3T and the 3Lz was UR and two-footed. I hope she can skate well tomorrow, good luck to her! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
