Elladj Balde

I hadn't seen or even heard of Elladj until the day before yesterday, but I'm now a huge fan. What a mesmerising and exciting performer.

Elladj, for the joy of performing you showed your fans this past week...

Do we think Elladj will go to 4CC, or want to go out on those dynamic performances.:agree:

I hope he does go to 4CC because I am selfish and want to see him again. :yes: there are more skaters I care about there than at the Olys

I'm probably on the fence - his programs at Canadians were stunning and that would be a remarkably memorable close to his competitive skating, but I really would like to see him bring it again at 4CC (I too being selfish here ).

Whatever works for Elladj, I'll be happy for him.

I wish he would be invited to take part in Stars on Ice this year.

My unrealistic fantasy is that Elladj would be invited to the US Stars on Ice this year.

Jason. Elladj. And I have tickets.

Not

But a live, happy one!



All that is is needed to make it complete would be #bossminer and Deniss Vasiljevs!

It seems Elladj skates not only on Plushenko's Kings On Ice show but on the great project the Swan Lake show! https://www.instagram.com/p/BsAJw2xAJUf/ That man is Sergei Filin ex Bolshoi director.

I saw him skating in Revolution on Ice show in November in Spain. We're stayed in the same hotel, we spoke with him a bit and took some photos, he was really nice:luv17:

Elladj was married this weekend in a private ceremony to his longtime girlfriend/fiancee Michelle Dawley.

Congrats to the happy couple!!
