Is there a kind soul on this board that can give us TEB practice report?
Mucho thanx in advance.

Yes, I would be very interested as well.
Here is a little trivia for you experts out there ...........
Who was the last senior American Lady to win a major figure skating competition in Europe?
Well, if you consider “major” competitions to be Worlds, Olympics, 4CC, Euros and the Grand Prix Series …… and if we exclude Russia as part of Europe, then we have to go all the way back to 2003 when Sasha won this event.
Has it really been 5 years? I think we are about due.
And, pray tell, who can do it? Definitely not anyone in the TEB field.
What in the... They painted the ice??? :scratch:More importantly, the ice was not as smooth at it could have been.
"We had a motorcycle racing show in the arena last Sunday," an official explained. "As soon as Sunday night, trucks loaded with sand left the arena. When they uncovered the ice beneath it on Monday morning, they realized that there were some colored spots on it, so they had the poor idea of covering them with white paint. The paint floated on the ice and now it prevents it to freeze."
Skaters wondered what those strange plates were in the middle of their ice sheet, and if they would glide properly. No one really paid any more attention to it after a few resurfacings.

It's an ice disaster, but it sounds so ridiculous it's funny. Ice painting!
