2025-26 Skate Canada Challenge | Nov 27-30

Yup. She scored just over 170 last year.
When she is on, she is a beauty.

She is also our only senior lady that hasn’t been sent to an event outside CAN/USA, despite scoring over 166 at Challenge last season. She also scored over 166 this season at a USA domestic event. She came second to Maddie and scored 167. Our best senior lady to never get an international assignment

what about Audréanne Foster ... I still haven't digested that one.

i guess ill switch to junior men while ice resurfacing. Oof Liam had a rough skate, 3 falls and lost spin...

Decisions by the federation for sending out skaters always confuses me for Canada.. I think the event she scored the 166 was glacier falls because thats where I noticed Amy and I thought she was brilliant.

Junior men still have work to do as Ted would say

[crystalspin]

What Skate Canada will do if Minsol Kwon win Challenge and national, cause it could really happen.
Does she is release from Korea and have her Canadian citizenship ?

 

[lariko]

Okay, I am very ready for this group of women!

If she wins Challenge, she will skate in the last warm-up group in the short program at Nationals (before Uliana and after whoever places second at Challenge if it isn't Uliana.)

If she wins Nationals (or podiums), she is then a member of the National Team. That's pretty much what is known for now, the other details are between her, her coaches, Skate Canada and the Korean federation.

this group is epic

This flight #3 is stacked

We have:

Two Junior superstars

Minsol Kwon - 5th Junior Worlds
Lulu Lin - 10th Junior Worlds

Two best Quebec skaters after SMD:

Fee Ann - Win FP at Sectionals
Justine - Won QC sectionals

And then Gabby (in contention for sole Olympic spot)

Poor Brookelynn. I hope she is enjoying the warm up in this group

I assume she has a release at least

As I said in another thread, Korea Skating Fed better release Minsol or I will bring back Lim/Quan to Canada.

Loved the use of the ponytail

 

[FlossieH]

Lulu seems to be back in form.

 

[crystalspin]

no falls and no pops, levels are good, great job Lulu! Just some tight landings on jumps

 

[soccerjc77]

I have a good feeling for Fee Ann she will skate strong !

 

[4everchan]

My favorite fairy.

 

[4everchan]

Fée Ann probably has one of the best triple flip from our Canadian women... For her, Flips are not fake

that salchow combo is still not working though... I know she wants a 3-3 but I guess she might need to reconsider using a 3-2 with higher BV

 

[FlossieH]

Decent skate from Fee-Ann. Just a bit rough on the combo.
