I saw the live this week and was struck by their lack of speed throughout the programs. I think it's something they really need to work on over the summer season.

Does anyone mind sharing where they are staying for the event? I'm thinking of going for a few days!

I also read the it was another person airlifted, a senior. No updates, but I hope they are recovering. I read the baby was taken to hospital with non-life threating injuries. https://www.google.com/amp/s/beta.cp24.com/news/2023/8/25/1_6535287.html

Does anyone know where we can find the schedule with times? Like what time does the pairs short start? Consider some single event tickets but timing matters!! Lol

This was great. Thank you for posting!

A quad toe. No idea what he's landed before. Keegan left a message of encouragement.

I've followed Canadian skating for a long time. I think we are in trouble. The "so many retirements happened in 2018" excuse doesn't work for me. We had 3 medals in 88 and the skaters all retired. We still had a great quad to 92. More retirements in 94. We still had solid top 10 skaters that...

I loved them as an amateur team (back to back 3 twists)! And am so sad for the family.

I hope all the alternates stay healthy and are ready to go in case another team is knocked out by a PCR test. At this point, who knows if JR will even be able to test negative and get on the plane. A negative rapid test does not equal a negative PCR test. I'm honestly nervous for all...

I didn't read it as someone she trained with the first time through. Sorry. That fall is still one of the worst I can recall......

I remember him talking about abuse. I recall something about being hit with skate guards.

If the skater was at nationals in the mid 90s the injury may have been to Anabelle Langois.....although I may not have the right skater. I remember they showed footage of the accident on TV and it was horrendous. Wikipedia seems to support this memory if the timeline works...

A rink in Ottawa, Ontario tried to open and was shut down after 1 day. https://www.google.com/amp/s/ottawasun.com/sports/hockey/government-officials-temporarily-shut-down-minto-arena-again/amp

I thought if there were 2 skaters and one didn't make the free, the other needed top 12 to keep two. Is that true for seniors or am I totally confused???
