I really liked their fd at jgp last year. I hope they get assignments this year, they've been skating together for so long but getting passed by new partnerships.
I thought similarly - they seem to have started the season out of favor. They are talented - I hope they can make good use of the feedback they get from here and move forward again.Stapert/Korotcov's score at Dallas Classic
Not only are they still here but they just won Dallas Classic! Congratulations Effie & Gordei!
It is a split decision - Bella & Linus win the RD and the Peals win the FD and overall but very close.
Something must have gone wrong here because they scored much better at 2026 Chesapeake Open June 24 - 28, 2026Stapert/Korotcov's score at Dallas Classic
I like this interviewer's questions. He went beyond the usual. Most delightfully, Vadym and Emi gave complex answers. Not the standards.Recent interview with Emilea & Vadym at Benoit training camp in Italy:

FWIW, I saw on IG where close friends call Katarina 'Kaia'. Dmitry is usually called 'Dima' for short.
Yeah, who knows how juniors ultimately will develop. Plus, as we know, Dallas Classic is an opening event of the summer, which we do not get to see. As you say, Stapert/ Korotcov may have messed up on an important element. It happens. I like watching S/K. I enjoy their training mates, Kouevi/ Homawoo, too (the young team who are cousins).
This interviewer also posted a delightful interview with Isabeau in Italy (see U.S. ladies thread). I think the interviewer is European, but not from Italy, as he said when he was buying ices with Isabeau that he doesn't speak Italian very well.
