2022–23 Canadian Figure Skating

Emmy Bronsard with Jacob Richmond. Nice lines. He cut his hair. Lots of work to do though (especially his twizzles)... and that's expected..

Circelli, Dushenski, Markell and Bruce Waddell + Schizas, Schumacher and Tobin entered at this week's Cranberry Cup International.
Junior entries: Kukulowicz, Pereira, Roccatani and Hewitt + Guinzbourg and Jin.

Didn't Bruce retire?

No, his former partner, Natalie D'Alessandro did.

Bruce is still skating singles....but i don't think he is skating ice dance anymore... I liked him in dance but he is good as well in singles... but he will need the big jumps if he wants to make a move

 

[DoxieSk8r]

Bruce should try pairs. He can jump and has experience working in a partnership.

 

[4everchan]

Bruce is 5'9... he would need a short partner..

Speaking of which, I was surprised when he got a StSq2 at Nationals... But the commentators (Ted, Kevin, Patrick) mentiones how hard it was switching between disciplines/boots in a short space of time. Now that he's devoted all his time to singles, I'll expect those step sequences to be nothing less than perfect

Don't get your hopes up... Corey was still getting 2s a year into his singles-only career and he's TCC skater. Men are going to men, after all.

It was good to see them skate together at the Quebec Summer Championships. Emmy has such great presence on the ice - she reminded me of Tessa quite a bit so I hope Jacob will be able match up to her eventually. Hopefully training at Gadbois will help his skating skills. They could be really promising if so.

Emmy as Tessa and Jacob eventually as Andrew ? Let's hope it does work out for them. I think everyone, especially themselves, will need to be patient as they learn to compete together. I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised with their look on the ice (lines and overall presence) and hope that they can fix what needs to be fixed

Madeline's short program from Cranberry.

Early days in terms of familiarity, obviously, but I like some of the choreo for the middle part in particular.

 

[RatedPG]

The Canadian Ladies did really well at Cranberry SP

The Canadian Ladies did really well at Cranberry SP

but not so well in the LP

 

[Colonel Green]

The bones of Madeline's free skate are solid, I thought, though this was far from her best jump day.

 

[4everchan]

Madeline popped the lutz... and probably meant to put her combo after that... so she rearranged her jumps to add two 2a-3ts near the end of the program and that wasn't good for her... glad she tried it though... i haven't seen the program LOL just the protocols so my comment is only based on that if anyone has the LP video, please share away

thank you !!! it is a really wonderful program on West Side Story.. I think it will suit her fabulously well when it's just a bit more "learned"

Just caught this vid of Soucisse/Firus new FD. Not sure what the music is. Looks very new, so I'm not sure how I feel about it either. But interesting choice.

Lanaghan/Razgulajevs from the same competition. Not going to lie, I really dislike this for them. The marionette/doll theme is so tired and overused and this doesn't bring anything new to the party, while also making them look overly young and unsophisticated, just what they don't need in the packed Canadian dance field this season. I think they should dump it entirely and try something else. The whole concept is just a complete miss.
