Another big field in pairs and women, and I think the biggest Ice Dance field so far.

Just the one kid for me this week. But I'm happy.

Well, I was beaten by a few seconds myself a few times in the last weeks (not just on this site ), so I guess I get to be the first today

Jacob Sanchez got a second assignment.

Amy CUI / Kenny ECKERT for ice dance! Yay!

This is their first year together, and the team started only in March. Amy's first year in ice dance after switching from singles. This is Kenny's first season competing after three years he hasn't competed (primarily because of partner changes, long partner search process). They did well in Lake Placid NQS, and I am so happy to see them get this assignment.

My other team is an alternate - Kristina BLAND / Matthew SPERRY. They did Gdansk last year after the JGP Armenia where they were first assigned got cancelled. Too bad they did not get any JGP assignments this year.

I want to be excited, as I plan to go, however...Nebelhorn entries are out, and looking at them I feel thst P² will be at Nepela and Nepela is on the same weekend as JGP in Gdańsk. Proving my luck is non-existent.
And knowing my toxic mind, I WILL think about going for Nepela instead until very last minute. Lol.
I'm annoyed at myself right now.

Why would that be toxic, of course you would want to see P Squared every chance you could get. Maybe it will depend on the other entries at Nepela as well? Unless you have no real hope of getting to Nepela vs JGP Solidarity Cup.

Or you could teleport like science fiction characters between the two.

For me, this is a 'toxic trait' of mine (kind of) as I tend to set myself on a certain thing, as I have to have everything planned to the T, and then I start to think what would it be to switch said plan.
I wish Nepela entries would be already here, so I could force myself to make a decision.
I wish I could bilocate hehe, would be nice to attend both, but I shall see and decide.

Okay, in the meanwhile of working and cutting vast amounts of crepe paper, I've looked up some entries I'm not familiar with.
Lulu Lin, count me in (for being excited) plus both Japanese ladies which I haven't seen in person yet. Quite few ID teams I've never seen too. Plus almost all new pairs.

 

[yuki@thelake]

Heard from the grapevine ... Helena CARHART / Volodymyr HOROVYI withdrew and Kristina BLAND / Matthew SPERRY are now in for ice dance

 

[yyzskater]

Are they still doing Budapest? Because they are slated for Budapest first...

 

[yuki@thelake]

Looks like it.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

No, they'll be replaced by Ilin/Cain. I do wonder what's going on with them though, also injury like Starr/Hauer?

 

[NoNameFace]

Yay for 2nd assignment for Strommer (excited to see him live, I see Sanchez was moved to Budapest and there is a podium beeline, he will have it hard there with Hagara, Yudong Chen, Hyungyeom Kim), but I'm curious about Carhart/Horovyi pulling out of both their assignments where they were easily candidates for a win (Budapest) abd podium (Gdańsk)...

 

[yuki@thelake]

Beck's team filed a petition for Gdasnk. The goal is to get that JGPF. He's a beautiful skater, even without that triple axel.

 

[NoNameFace]

Oh, and there's only one Japanese young lady remaining, what happened to Kaoruko Wada? And will there be a replacement?
