Here's the competitive records and some videos and pictures of the competitors, where they have been available (BTW, LPIDC is the recent Lake Placid International Ice Dance Championships). Junior Worlds 2008 is still available icenetwork.com. If you are not in the US, it is also available on the ISU website, if you want to check out the performances of some of the Courcheval competitors who skated there. Also the US Nationals competitions at the Junior and Novice level are also on icenetwork, so the performances of the Shibutanis and Wolf/Ainsworth can be viewed there.
Here is the icenetwork page where you can find the performances of the Shibutanis and Wolf & Ainsworth. You will have to refer to the order of skate to determine the position to pull the status bar to in order to find the performance you want to see.

Here is the icenetwork page where you can find the performances of the Shibutanis and Wolf & Ainsworth. You will have to refer to the order of skate to determine the position to pull the status bar to in order to find the performance you want to see.
