sallycinnamon Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 It's 3 types of quads either way, but no new combo, and Javi doesn't seem too struggle with stamina (IMO; at least) I think he had stamina issues this season. Except for CoR and TdF he struggled a lot with his FS and to me it seemed like he was really tired by the end of the program. In the past months he also looked a bit thinner to me. As for his layout he will see how the success rate of his 4Lo will be, but I think adding a new quad for the Olympic season may be too risky for him. But if he chooses to add the 4Lo then I think a "safer" layout with 3-quads would be more of an option than a riskier 4-quad one which he never did before.

That's a good question and honestly, no clue. I think it may be a possibility. I haven't seen a thing new though so we wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beki Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Looking into it further, she competed at the Cup of Tyrol in March, finishing 7th with 128.78. I don't know her training situation. I liked watching her, but I'm also curious about Spain's potential lineup for the team event. Her most recent score is still higher than Valentina Matos' personal best, even though Sonia lost Nationals to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yatagarasu Posted May 17, 2017 Author Share Posted May 17, 2017 ^^ Moris seems like such a fun person! Fingers crossed he advances even further next season, I'd say this one was a pretty good one. Julian likes Japan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree he tended to have struggled with stamina last season.To me he had been noticeably slower than previous seasons especially in the second half of lp, not to mention the increasing "I am taking a rest here" moments in his program. As for the possibility to upgrade his layout, I think he will at least try to add 4lo at some point, to see how it goes. And if he does, I bet it would be a 4 quads program; it is more about to stay in the top of the mix coz we dont just have one crazy kid, we have a bunch. It's Olympic season, play safe on your music choice, go bold on your jumps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest turquoiseblue Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Andrew Dodds announced that he will be competing singles and ice dance this upcoming season!

Yatagarasu Posted May 18, 2017 Author Share Posted May 18, 2017 Huh. I've heard singles + pairs, but ice dance? Well, it'll be interesting to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puniyo Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I didn't know it was possible for an athlete to do two categories in the same season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sallycinnamon Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I don't think I've ever heard about someone competing both in singles and ice dance in the same season. I am curious if he is the first one to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its common with singles and pairs. The most famous and accomplished couple would probably be Kristi Yamaguchi and Rudy Galindo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
