2026 NextGen - Skate Canada | July 16-19

Looks like she got no credit for her layback spin? Is that correct?
She needed to do a flying spin, not a layback from her interview.

Yeah, it looks like she didn't have a spin with a flying entrance, so that could be why.

And Lia confirms it, thanks Lia!

Lia at 195 without a spin.... dangerously approaching 200.

and well... Scott Davis's skaters... again hurt by spins LOL... this is such a weird thing that keeps repeating.

Superstar in the making...

Superstar in the making...

it will all depend on how she grows. I can see some problems but at the same time, I am confident she would find the solutions.

He make be snakebit with those spins having suffered severe vertigo from his own career and as a physician knowing the consequences that could bring. I always liked Scott - he seems like such a nice guy.

The girls are cute posing on the podium...

Canada all your girls are a lot of fun to watch.

Scott - Shame on you regarding this spin situation

Good thing we have Next Gen to practice prepare prior to JGP

JGP - I would give one spot to Lia, Reese and Victoria. Then, the one with highest placement in JGP to get the second JGP spot

 

[labgoat]

Biggest improvement to Chantalle-Elizabeth CHIPILO (Twilight girl) - 7 points higher than her PB this year.

A lunch break and onto the dance...

I would give two spots to Lia right away. There is no need to do otherwise. She is clearly but clearly way above the field.
Also, if Victoria for instance had a much easier competition field and placed higher than Lia in a tough competition field but Lia had a huge score.. it's still unfair that way. I doubt anyone other than Lia has a chance to make the finals.

The is a sweetness to Kayleigh & Jonathan's skating. They just love to dance and have an even partnership. They have a lot to learn but are still enjoyable.

Chao / Ma are adorable Great packaging choices were made for them

 

[labgoat]

Nice originality from Rilee EBY & Jacob STARK. They are committed to their choreography. Nicely matched couple too.

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Damn, that CuLi+RoLi by Eby/Stark was crazy Some really cool moments choreographically as well and they do look good as a team.

They nearly cracked 100 points combined.

I am utterly charmed by Florence BEAUSOLEIL / Rémi THIBAULT. ARGH a twizzle mishap that is going to be costly - but at least no fall. If their skills develop, they are going to have a future. They need to be faster but first they need to master their elements so they can show us an already cool style.

I fell asleep.
