Souvenir Georges-Éthier 2025 | Sep 18-21

Not perfect for Sandrine, but she didn't let the mistakes get to her. Maybe not the score she was looking for, but she had good fight.
 
Sandrine!! This is what she is capable of. 👏
All was good when she landed the opening 3Lz and 2A 3T.
Her 3Lo and 3F usually are difficult for her. She did well just not to fall.
Besides a popped salchow, she landed four triples cleanly.

157.47!!! She becomes only our second junior eligible girl to surpass the 155 domestic benchmark!! (besides Victoria)

I think it is too late for her to replace Reese or Hannah. But, this might just ban Sandrine a Junior B 👏
 
she should get a junior b... she is not ready to go to JGP. She wants it too much. She needs to breathe in and be proud of the small progress every competition. She's very good. She just needs a bit more time

I know. I agree. This was progress. She never seems to smile. Her wanting it so badly led to breakdowns at NextGen and in the other Quebec domestic event.

Also, Megane 🫂
My suggestion is to force her to execute easier jumps until she regains an ounce of confidence. The only Megane I have ever seen, is one in tears at the kiss n cry. I really would love for her to breakout soon…
 
Disastrous skate for Eddy.... Good it was here and not in Poland

2s (popped 4s) -2a rough
3a fall
3a +rep fall
1f
3loop rough touch free leg
3f rough step out
3lutz rough touch hand

Nothing was working
 
They cut the stream... Both Nic and Eddy looked very serious in the KnC.

Eddy didn't seem to have any energy on the ice.

Yikes!! Also, just one combo attempted.
I still think he should compete in Poland. But, it is very mild and with low expectations 😬

Is Nic Nadeau coaching Eddy or just there for support?

I miss this fine specimen and would have tuned in just to see him again

i have no idea... maybe Yvan needed a break. He was just in Thailand wasn't he ? This event is in quebec city... so maybe he decided not to go and send nic. Maybe Yvan is running Montreal's marathon... and passed in front of my house while i was trying to sleep and people woke me up with cheering for runners... Now i know to never volunteer for a pit stop at a race.... it's so loud. I would prefer opening the gate for figure skaters :) of course ;)
 
Second last group for Senior Women started. Quite a few doubles for Mia-Catherine, but she's landing them and it's always nice to see her costume reveal.
 
Wow!! Marie-France’s free skate was incredible!!! Four triples landed!

Edit: Her free skate score is: 92.03
Overall score: 133.86
Clearly in first place at this moment 👏
 
Moving to Stephane Yvars seems to be working out for Jessica. She'll get to Challenge this season.

Also I wish I'd watched Junior Dance, Briere/Levesque got a 2 point deduction for an illegal element. I want to know what it is now.

Yes. She was so happy with her 140.80 score 👏 (second place)
Sometimes… change is a good thing and it is for Jessica. This kind of score can even take her to Nationals!!
