2025 NextGen Competition | July 17-20

[RatedPG]

My baby boy just doesn’t have the technical content to compete internationally

 

[Jumping_Bean]

So sad for David H., he doesn't have much of a technical buffer and wasn't able to show his best skating today.

 

[Cutting the ice]

Poor David H. I did not like that version of that song unfortunately. Maybe the programme will get better through the season

Rui has some work to do, on the spins for instance, but nice opening 3z-3t .

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Rui didn't go clean today, but he landed some good jumps and had some interesting choreographic moments. Spins though? Work to do.

 

[RatedPG]

Interesting competition.
Will David Bondar move up to the podium or will the top three be it?

Girls - two ladies surpassed the benchmark
Dance - three teams surpassed the benchmark
Pairs - three teams surpassed the benchmark
Boys - could it be four boys?

 

[4everchan]

lol... so the hotel is far away... maybe i shouldn't attend nationals then LOL

 

[RatedPG]

Rui was a horrible person to interview by the way

You probably wouldn't be in that hotel anyway.

give him some slack... it's probably the first time ever he does an interview

I don't know how many hotels they have in Gatineau... it's not really a big city

 

[RatedPG]

Got to go to a lunch I almost forgot about. Will watch the final flight later on today. Almost got to watch everything. But, life, you know, gets in the way

 

[RatedPG]

Only Lia and Victoria surpassed 155.

i have been healthy snacking all along... no meals yet today except for breakfast...

 

[NanaPat]

Interesting that they interviewed Rui. I guess David B declined or was unavailable.

I believe you already recommended staying in Ottawa.

 

[4everchan]

well... william is going for a 3a...he popped it... but it's clear from his layout that he has this ambition. good for him

also... he looks like he's borrowed Patrick Chan's costume

Did I ? I don't remember LOL
At this point, I should just drive in back and forth every day

 

[NanaPat]

I have been looking at the rink and thinking Nationals? Presumably the Slush Puppy Center has another rink, with seats, for that!
