2024-25 Canadian Figure Skating

[saine]

Yeah!! You are right. Anthony and David are my two faves for Junior Boys.

For Junior Girls, it looks like Lulu Lin and ???

I'm picking Uliana for the Junior Women. She has the highest international score of the eligible skaters and this is one where there are two spots to keep, plus JGP spots for next season.

She just won her sectionals too

She just won her sectionals too

That isn't a huge achievement in BC though. Her placement at challenge will matter much more.

Roman seems to be fine now, Skate Canada has him in the news release for Tallinn Trophy.

Yay! This is the news I was hoping to hear.
I enjoy Roman so much and am hoping for a good skate in Talinn.

This is an awesome chart @saine and very much appreciated.

Question for you Canadians Roman vs Corey?
I keep flip-flopping on my Talinn predictions.

LOL... neither ? Corey is now Italian so it's not like we have seen him compete this summer or at sectionals... and i think the challenger he was doing was not free streamed ??? so i haven't seen him at all this season

Yes I know Corey is now Italian, but he was born in Toronto and I know I saw him and Roman compete together before. For your enjoyment, Corey skated very well at Nepela and I found his FS and listed it in the rewatch

I think that Roman is able to perform his level of technical content more consistently than Corey. Corey only ratified his 4T for the first time at Nepela and hasn't ratified his 3A internationally yet. Nepela was a good competition for Corey, and 20 points above his previous PB. But it's hard to tell if he'll be able to pull off the same level of content again, while Roman has a higher ceiling than Corey.

If I had to choose, I'd pick Roman.

That's what I keep thinking as well. Corey also scored very close to M Selevko's best and Roman was a fraction off of that. Healthy Roman sounds like a better bet, just not sure with the event in Estonia that Selevko doesn't have an edge.

thank you for sharing. that was beautiful... probably one of his best skates.... i think Roman's ceiling is much higher... but Roman hasn't been that steady lately so it's hard to tell...

Didn’t see this posted earlier, very cute promo video for Canadian Nats in Laval featuring the national team.

I knew you would like it. Wonderful program and interpretation.

I might pick Roman too, but boy does Corey skate beautifully. What a joy to watch. Hopefully we'll get to see Italian Nationals on stream (as well as Canadian, which is a joy in itself).

Just went through the Tallin Picks and a lot of people have Sarah-Maude in the medals. A few even have her in 2nd. Do not want to jinx her but if she does medal here will her International profile go up a bit. Really believe if she had a better profile she would have scored about 5 points or even more, higher in the 4CC free skates the last 2 years. Other better known skaters did not skate as well but scored higher.

She has the third highest SB currently going by the Skating Scores preview, so she has a chance. But ice is slippery, I'm trying not to put out jinxing energy

Individual videos are being put out for the Novice skaters, hopefully they do the same for the Seniors

She is consistently scoring around 170 which is likely her greatest strength atm.
