You will be thrilled to know that bungee cords were forbidden since the 2010-2011 season...as am I.
I would only be thrilled had they never been allowed. :scowl:

It feels certain Canadian skating will go on regardless of who is calling the shots and running the show.
You think it doesn't matter who's in charge? When Pam Chidlow was CEO of Skate Canada, she changed the policy for junior GP skaters to one where skaters who were not in contention for a spot in the Jr. GPF after their first event, didn't get a second one. This is one of the reasons why we have no women who are competitive at the international level at the moment. A generation of skaters lost opportunities to develop and learn to compete on the international stage. The policy was rescinded after she was fired, but the damage was already done.
It matters very much who is in charge of Skate Canada.
