Yesss!!
Can't wait!
But Konstantinova? Can't remember seeing her in the GP... I thought maybe Tarakanova would get a spot. But anyway, Russia has practically 100% probability of getting at least 1st and 2nd place.
But of course I'm rooting for my fave Kihira!!!! [emoji173]️
Also looking forward to see how Eunsoo and Young have evolved in their programs.
So exciting!!!

Nothing happend. They were 4th at Junior Nationals. Polina showed skate of her life and took the third place overall, after disaster short program because of her partner. And I'm happy they're going, because after win at first JGP, her partner ruined their second stage, and took Polina's chances to compete at JGPF. Hope this time everything will go fine.

Ugh, something needs to change when skaters who made the JGPF have no chance of getting selected to JWC. There's so many deserving Russian ladies:
Selected: Trusova, Kostornaya
Selected but should have been in seniors by now: Konstantinova
Always overlooked: Panenkova, Tarakanova, Gubanova, Vasilieva

We will have to wait and see how it goes but in the past the new Olympic Champion has sometimes decided to withdraw from the Worlds. If that would happen this time then it would mean that Stasya, as the 1st alternate, would go to the Senior Worlds. I doubt she would be sent to both Junior Worlds and Senior Worlds which would mean that Nastia would be sent to Junior Worlds. This is assuming that the one who wins the Olympic gold would let the Fed know soon after the Olympics that she is not going to Worlds this season. That is because Junior Worlds will start early Mach, so, there is not much time to replace Stasya with Nastia.
I think this scenario could very well happen if Zhenia wins the Olympic gold but since Alina hasn't won the Worlds she might want to go even if she wins the Olympic gold medal.
They messed up their FS and ended up 4th at Junior Nationals, that is what happened.
I like B/K but she does a lot of messy landings. K/I had a amazing FS at Junior Nationals and I am really looking forward to see how they will do here.
Making it to the JGP Final means next to nothing here. Gubanova won silver at the JGP Final last season and it ment nothing. JGP Final is not the main criteria here, the Junior Nationals are.

49(!) men? Dang, even more than the ladies for once! Unfortunately I'm not super excited about the lineup this year, except for Erokhov and Matteo Rizzo.

I bet there will be coffee on hand for the judges.

What a wonderful and diverse group of men's skaters this year:
Alexei, Camden and Tomoki from the US alone: so different as skaters, so interesting and fun to watch.
Donovan Carrillo, Joseph Phan, Conrad Orzel, Matteo Rizzo, James Min, Mitsuki Sumoto
I'm liking this season's men's lineup better and better:agree:

Now, after the Olympics, who knows? Will Alina want to go to Worlds? Or maybe they could send Konstantinova instead of Sotskova?

Alina and Evgenia are going to go to Worlds as they said.

What about Emmi Peltonen, or is she not doing Worlds?
ETA: Never mind, I just noticed she's a sub and not an entry for JW.

It is a bit sad to see so few Australians this year.
I do hope our sole representative, James Min, holds it together in the short program and makes the cut for the free skate.
