2026-27 U.S. Pairs Figure Skating

[Spiralgraph]

I am interested in how these new USA partnerships formed and came about too. Hopefully with as little acrimony and hurt feelings as well. But I'm more interested in these teams' progress and development. Which pair teams will be on the podium in 2027? Right now I have no clue.

Any news on Emily Chan? I see her IG posts with her boyfriend Aleksandr, but nothing skating wise from her. Announcements have been taking awhile, but I wonder if she's taking a season off or just hasn't found the right partner if she decides to continue?

A landed throw? Sigh.
And a 3F, no less

They look good together

A question - the funding level wise - is there any difference between A1 and A2? I noticed that Alisa/Misha are in A2 according to the USFS website.
Thanks in advance!

A1 is the highest funding level, no idea how much of a difference there is between the two for the athletes, but there is one.

Was looking at Skate Milwaukee list, so Oh/Chapa split, and Oh/Felberbaum are a new team. I thought Felberbaum had retired, good to see he's sticking around.

I would normally post this in their fanfest but as we all are starved for any news:

The Skating Club of Boston

Turns out the East Multipurpose Room doubles as the perfect photoshoot location. 😉 Our athletes Misha and Alisa traded the ice for the camera for their cover of SKATING Magazine, out now. Huge...

I mean, it's US juniors and US pairs, so any adoptions are at your own peril.

But they are baby pairs...they are cute and wobble a lot cause their heads are too big for their tiny bodies. I just enjoy them and wait to see what happens when they grow... It's because I adopted Tai & Randy at 13 &15, I can't help myself.
