Kristoffer Berntsson's name has been removed from the Mont Blanc Trophy competitors' list. Does anyone know why? The Swedish federation hasn't chosen a replacement for him (at least not yet). Viktoria Helgesson is also no longer a participant, but another Swedish skater has taken her spot.

^ I suppose it's too close to The Nordics 2011 which end the 13th of february.

Could be, but also considering how bad they need ranking points. Joshi and Adrian are still listed though. And the finnish guy Virtanen. All of them going to Nordics as well.

Sequinsgalore, are you going to Nordics? Some live reports maybe

I've considered that, but Koffe did participate in both the Ice Challenge and the Merano Cup earlier this season (both competitions were also scheduled several days apart). Of course, he may have had unexpected deadlines related to his graduate studies or his job.

I think it's a bit odd that the Swedish federation hasn't named a replacement for him.

So Yana and Fedor are going to compete in the Bavarian Open this weekend, then they are going to turn around and compete in the Mont Blanc trophy just a couple of days later. GO YANA AND FEDOR!!!!

Which brings up the question: D&W, V&M, C&Z, and S&S will all be at 4CC's. I would think they would be travelling to Taipei in a day or so. Aren't both S&Z going to be going with them? Is Marina in Europe with Jana & Fedor? Or will she be?
