French Championships: Predictions Game Round 2

Here is the thread where you can make your predictions for the French Championships.

Entries/Results Page:
http://www.csndg.org/resultats/Elites/

The Senior competitions start on 18[SUP]th[/SUP] December 2014 at 14:30 CET (13:30 GMT) with the Pairs Short.

So, predictions need to be in 1 hour before that, i.e. 13:30 CET (12:30 GMT)

If you need any help working out what time this is where you are, here is a Time Converter that Mrs. P very kindly posted in the Cup of China Predictions thread.

Please be aware that these are the provisional entry lists, and they may change by the time the Entry/Results page comes online.

Unfortunately, for the second round in a row, the Pairs competition will not count towards the Game score as there are only 2 entries. However, feel free to make predictions on it anyway, just for fun! (By the way, there are currently enough entries in the Italian Championships for predictions in their Pairs competition to count).



Let the fun begin!!!

Some videos to familiarize yourself with skaters you may not know of! I'll edit as/if the entry lists change.

That's the way I always look at it. Better safe than sorry!

I have to confess – nearly all of my predictions this time were done by Personal Bests. Apart from the top 2 or 3 in each category, I have no idea who most of them are!

As well as the ISU Bios, I also looked at the results from the French Championship for the past 5 years for some extra inspiration.

After looking at the past results, I am VERY disappointed with the number of entries this year. The number of entries for all the Senior categories have been dwindling over the past 5 years. Like, it was only 3 years ago that the singles categories at the Senior French Championship had 17 or 18 entries, and only the Top 12 were going through to the FS. But since then, they haven’t had enough entries to even reach the elimination cut-off!

I was especially disappointed that we have only 5 entries for Senior Ice Dance. Yes, that is more than the past few years. But, when you take into consideration that Junior Ice Dance had NINETEEN entries last year, it makes you wonder why there hasn’t been a massive influx into the “main” competition.

And there has been no Junior Pairs competition for years! The last one was 2011, and there was only 1 entry. So, is it any wonder that the Federation is resorting to having all-Russian teams...?!

You fell into the trap. Bruno is now with Aljona Savchenko skating for Germany. Daria is still sakting for France, but is now with her fellow Muscovite, Andrei NOVOSELOV.

Don't worry, it's easy done when partnerships change. At least in this case Bruno isn't entered in the same competition. If he had been, then we would have had problems...

By the way, I have now added to the original post a list of the Bios that I have used for skaters that have changed partners since they last competed internationally.

Me too, I am now playing catch up! Same way I missed Skate America! I would probably have a gold medal around my neck now instead of Mentalopes!

You did me one, no two better! I only checked ISU personal best and looked up other competition like Cup of Nice! Took all my evening but I thought having put in all this work now, maybe that will make me a skater (I have never put on skates before)! How can one like something they have never done this much?? :confused2:

A few more infos about some French skaters that appeared at Dortmund a few weeks ago. If you can take a bit of praising and humor, it might help you
