If Vadym still wants to skate, I am guessing it might be a citizenship thing? Alas...
I’m sad about Nguyen and Kolesnik. From the wording on their insta posts it does sound like Kolesnik has already found a partner (no mention of searching for a partner). I hope Nguyen manages to find a partner.
C/P are still in the selection pool. N/K have been removed. I think this is an unfortunate oversight
2020-21 envelope funding for U.S. skaters was announced today. Ice dance is below. Notably missing is Carreira/Ponomarenko.

Team D:
DelCamp/Somerville
Ling/Wein
Carhart/Horovyi
Peal/Peal
Shadid/Shadid
Edit: Christina confirmed USFS left them off in error on Twitter. I assume the website will be updated to show them on Team B.
Vadim said he would continue skating and is looking for a new partner possibly outside of US
Just to clarify, he said he might be looking outside of the U.S.
She is the niece of Juris Razgulajevs I believe ....
I completely agree with you. I apparently missed seeing any reflection of "possibly" in the original post at the time and I remember looking for it. Oh well, my brain must have taken the day off.To me, larat's post already was clear: "looking for a new partner possibly outside of US" -- with "possibly" being a direct translation of "восможно," which is the word from Vadym's quote in Russian.
does Alena Kanysheva have a partner yet?
Not sure. Was she supposed to be skating for the US with an American partner?
She's paired with Nikita Nazarov, I think.

In an interview that Jason Brown did the other day, he mentioned that Kaitlin Hawayek and Jean-Luc Baker managed to cross the border back in Canada on June 22nd, and we know that all the skaters at Gadbois have returned to the ice. It seems that most US ice dancers have been able to resume training.
Does anyone think the ShibSibs will come back for another go at the olympics? I feel like they’ve been left out of the ice dance conversation for a while (last time I checked they didn’t rule out making a comeback).
