All I can say is yahoo! for Langlois and Archetto. Looks like they finally put a good one together this season. I can't wait to see them at nationals. Looks like P/T will be there to bore us all in the GPF (sorry for any fans, I just find this couple dull, if competent skaters).

Oh, and an aside....with these results Langlois and Archetto have made the GPF! I'm so excited! Others in are Pang/Tong, Zhang/Zhang, Petrova/Tikhonov, Shen/Zhao, and Totmianina/Marinin..... Wow, China's sure a new powerhouse.

Japanese Expatriates

I wonder how well-received Rena and Utako were when their names were announced to the Japanese fans. They were former Japanese lady singles skaters.

China is really pushing Russia down the ladder. I'm so happy for L&A. They really needed the boost, and now Canada will have at least two entries in the GPF, which can only help TV ratings.

I hoppe this doesn't upset...

I surely hope that with I &B's continued improvement that we have a new Nats. Champion this year. I am sure that S & D are nice people and they ARE pleasant skaters, I just don't think they have the "goods" to perform much higher than they have placed at worlds already. If S&D haven't "gotten it together" by now, does anyone think they ever will?

I read on another board that Rena and John went for their SBS triple lutzes in this competition. They fell, but credit for really pushing the envelope!

Good luck to them at Nationals.

Triple lutzes? Good for them. Nice to see the envelope pushed.
