Okay. That's a shame but thankyou for letting us know. I've never seen you around AusTechSpec...so welcome
I'm sure David will be a fine representative for Slovenia. Since I'm not in skating circles in Australia I don't know these things. I usually rely on social media.

oh, I'm so sad.
A bit in me says this but i hope that this move will help david achieve his goals and dreams- maybe to represent his nation at the olympics or world championships someday. When i last checked, men's skating in Slovenia is still in need of developing so i am confident that he will be a top rep for Slovenia soon.
Why is David no longer representing Australia?
I dont specifically know why but i can think of a few reasons.
1. Australia is his adopted country. He initially represented his home nation Slovenia.
2. He is a good skater and he has a better chance of progressing his career if he represents Slovenia as skating in Slovenia is still very much developing. Also keep in mind that Brendan is the number one mens skater at the moment in Australia.
3. It could be as simple as he is might be returning to his native country.
Thus is just speculation so if any of you know why David changed back could you please post on this page. It doesnt need to a super detailed invasive response- general explanation is fine.

But it's baby steps. Now the quad is there, they can work on making sure everything else is there too.
Yeah. His triple axel has lost consistency though since he trained for the quad. Is this a common problem?
Also, i hope his choreography will flow alot better by the end of the season.
He needs to break 180 points at nationals.

Sometimes it happens. It happened to Chan, Lambiel, and others, so it's not like Brendan would be alone.
I hope there's a live stream of Nationals again. I can't wait to see him by then, I'm sure he'll be in tip-top shape.
Thats trueabout chan and lambiel with the triple axel. It was his bread and butter jump last season and he even posted a video of him richard dornbush and another skater doing side by side by side triple axels. Maybe again its not a training issue but a psychological issue. Again, the mind is a very complex thing. He has the goods now, he just needs to put a sp and a fs together.

Yeah great result for Paris and Matthew. Dodd brothers Andrew and Jordan both did well, especially in the short programs.
Italy, out of all nations to be writing about Brooklee's selection for Skate Canada.
I put this through the translator. There is a paragraph which slightly hinted that some people are not fully happy that Brooklee was selected over other skaters who produced higher scores than her.
I'm no master at Italian so I'm not sure about anything.
Anyway, here is the link.
