Her SP at Courchevel today was beautiful! So poised, so calm, so elegant, and absolutely magical. She was a wonderful swan. Good luck to her in tomorrow's free!

 

[Ruthypegs]

Glad she has a fanpage - I saw her programme at the Peggy Fleming Trophy and was completely mesmerised - her skating is stunning.

It’s a different and longer version of her SP this year. Just beautiful The spiral

Thinking about Isabeau's debut international skate and Shcherbakova's, there are some similarities in that they both missed their first Junior season (Anna because of injury, Isabeau because of COVID canceling the entire season), and they have a lot of similar strengths and weaknesses. They also were similarly high-scoring because they both had an extra year to mature out of the public eye, so their entrance is all the more dazzling.

Yes, I agree, it felt a bit like I'm watching Anna's American cousin.. A new start is born, that was a truly mesmerizing performance! And I can't believe she didn't have a fan fest until yesterday, while Anna had a livelier fanfest than a world champion Osmond at that time even before her international debut..

 

[Vemvane]

Well done to Isabeau on winning her JGP debut, and breaking 200 on her first international outing! Both SP and FP were really lovely, and played to her strengths.

 

[3T3T]

Being honest, I never heard of this skater till this week. I thought both of her skates were fantastic, a real joy to watch. A great international debut with a score of 200+. I look forward to seeing her progress through the season.

She has a very Russian looking coaching team, plus Otar from Georgia.

 

[LRK]

Isabeau is a Star.

She was an utter delight to watch, skating with such seemingly effortless ease & joy.

“What would skating be, without the performance part?”

The following articles are not new, but, as this fanfest is, have not been shared yet:

"I always admired Evgenia Medvedeva, but as of right now I really look up to Alena Kostornaia," Levito said. "I really love the way she moves on the ice, her extensions and her landings. She lands with the same speed she goes into a jump with."

Meeting her favorite Philadelphia Flyer, Carter Hart:
“Because he works very hard and very determined for a younger hockey player, let’s say, and he focuses so much and puts all of himself into the sport”

Yulia Kuznetsova is her main coach? She and Otar Japaridze are both listed as coaches at Isabeau's home rink.

Zhanna Palagina is probably her ballet teacher and maybe choreographer?

“I know what I'm working towards.” Her online school is proud of her.

I will not provide a link, as I don't know whether Joseph "Tim" Levito was definitely her father, but it seems very likely. Would be very sad. As she doesn't talk that much about her family, maybe I shouldn't have mentioned it at all. @moderators: please feel free to delete this paragraph.

Taste! I was thinking when watching her she's the first Junior skater to really blow me away since Kostornaia.

I'm in love with her artistry already and am looking forward to seeing how it develops, the positions she hits are fabulous!

 

[Tonight's the Night]

I hadn't seen this. I'd say that among her free skates this year, in this one she is best as a "performer." The energy is great and carries through the step sequence all the way to the end. And some of those jump landings... so elegant. All good signs for JGP Linz!
