[tulosai]

Ok, not sure if it has been posted but i just found this news article about a comeback http://news.yahoo.com/carolina-kostner-says-she-ready-return-competition-110131628.html .

I thought i would never see her competing again, i hope she proves me wrong.

Great to hear this from her! I can't wait to see her again!

Well, she said also in that vid that she is going back to Oberstdorf for training, so it seems like she is at least considering a comeback.

She is the only European skater who could keep up with the Russian skaters if she can get back her 3-3.

She wants to go to Bratislava european champs ?

She wants to go to Bratislava european champs ?

I don't think so. She's going to MWO (there's only a little timespan between MWO and Europeans) and I don't think that there would actually be a competiton before Europeans where she could get the European minimum TES. But I read in a south tyrolean newspaper that she's planning to go to Worlds.

She will go to WC I think. European not sure, I don't think there's enough time.

I made a fan-video of Carolina skating to O Mio Babbino Caro by Puccini. If she (or Mao) did a real program to this music, it would be so perfect!

In the interview, the background music when she is skating is "Meditation de Thais". Will that be her choice for a new program?
I really can't wait to hear her choice of music for the Medal Winners Open

Yes unfortunately I don't see how she could get the minimum for Euros in time, but Worlds is wide open I am so excited to see her on the ice again!

As she states in this longer interview here http://www.raisport.rai.it/dl/raiSp...iva-78c02164-5c98-4f01-969f-cc9e1e81ff1d.html she'll be skating to "Meditation" at Medal Winners Open

It would be awesome to see her skate in Boston! Does she need to anything to qualify if she's not going to Euros?

She can qualify herself for the Worlds in Boston (if she will decide to officially continue her competitive career) only if she obtains the TES minimum score ISU decided to apply for Worlds. She could only if she will partecipate in an official ISU qualifying events (for example the Bavarian Open or the Nordics Open in February).

Wonderful! Does anyone know, will she be eligible for GP spots as a returning skater? I know there is a rule that skaters generally are, but I feel like she's already used this once before? Are you allowed to use the rule multiple times?
