Max and Jacob are my favorites of this group.

Too bad "Gracie I love you" isn't a question.

They are asked if they think SA will move from Allen next year or stay there. They don't know. JL liked when it was in Boston. Gracie thinks it should be in Chicago.

I was so happy to see JL at Skate America Boston.

They are asked if they have done anything fun. Gracie played pickleball. Most of the top pickleball players in the country live in the Witchita area. They are going again and taking Brandon with them.

What are their favorite jump combos.

 

[moonvine]

Gracie likes Sonja. One of Sonja's practice sessions every day is devoted to spins.

Gracie says spins are more about practice than athletic ability. She says everyone can learn to be a good spinner, but practicing spins is not as interesting as practicing jumps.

Kai Kovar's sister competed in Junior Pairs.

I'm hungry but I can't get up.

 

[moonvine]

Ok here is Camden.

I have a cat on top of my head again chewing on my hair. This is my excuse for why my hair looks like it does.

I loved spins

JL loves Camden's commitment.

 

[labgoat]

Camden marking the jumps in his program - probably because he is first to skate and not fully warmed up yet.

 

[moonvine]

Gracie says Camden is one of the best skaters there.
