Memorable Debuts on the JGP

Japan and the world have another Mao and a new Mao, new era.

Probably due to competing with Plushenko. Somewhere along the line a men's spot was lost and the battle for 2010 & 2014 became intense. Plushenko was doing pro stuff and was often injured but decided to make a comeback at home Olympics. Russia had only earned one spot for Olympics and Plushenko WD after winning the SP leaving no Russian man to replace him in time. I wish I remembered the details, but I don't and am too tired to look them up.

That makes sense, it just seems so sad that a promising career just fell apart and his scores plummeted after a promising start. I know he isn't the only one (and Han Yan's is even sadder because his early senior career was good).

That’s why I posted them here when they were young and strong and beautiful skaters.

Maybe not all debuts, but the 2009 Junior Worlds Pairs SP has programs for many skaters. I have not seen this in years and their are many familiar names. Here is a link to the 2009 JW rewatch where I've just added the links and where I hope we may get the FS as well - please and thank you Ulrich

Such a lovely snow queen. Beautiful posture, softness and delicacy to her skating.
Thanks for posting her skating. Such a gorgeous dress.

Yes I remember this couple and this beautiful program with her yellow dress. They were quite promising and at one point beat Lajoie & Lagha I believe. Such an airy, sensitive program. Thanks for posting it. I nicknamed her as Sofia Polish-chick. I thought they were going to go places. Here is their Black Swan from their final JGP year.

They remind me a bit of Neset/Markelov. I was sad when they split.. he left for another skater, I believe, who then in turn left him for another short lived partnership, such a surprise and now no word from anyone. Beyond the the 3 A’s (have missed them) I know nothing of Russian skating tho I liked Petr’s programs last year.
EDT to add this is a fantastic enjoyable thread! Spending some time here discovering artists before my time
