And, remind me again why USFS thought it wise to send Rippon and Mroz to this event? Thought spring internationals were 'developmental"....these two are about as far away from developmental as it gets. Hmmmmmm.......
Sure, glad to remind you again since it has been talked about since 4CC....I believe that Mroz W/D from 2 previous due to injury and Rippon need a few points to maintain a top 24 standing in world rankings. I salute USFS for having the foresight of getting as many skaters out in the GP next season as possible. The concept "Development" only works if the current skaters are supported.
Who should have gone in their place? I actually think they were good choices.
Is it better to send skaters out who are too young to even compete on the JGP like Vincent?
I believe Rippon already has qualifying TES he was set for 4CC.Additionally, it gives both a chance to get qualifying TES scores.
