The 2021 Tayside Trophy

Drat! With spending an hour and a quarter setting up a new TV first thing this morning, I forgot to do reminder posts in the Fan Fests for my kids that are competing in Dundee today! :drama:

Here is the first of my kids, my fellow Ulsterman, Dillon Judge!

☘️ ALL THE BEST DILLON!!! ☘️

Unfortunately, my married kids were not in the Pairs competition earlier. But, I have another kid coming on now.

:cheer: ALL THE BEST ALEKSANDRA!!! :cheer:

And I have a kid in this segment too! :biggrin:

Since I won't be able to post it when he is about to start, I will send a greeting to my fellow Ulsterman now.

☘️ ALL THE BEST SAM!!! ☘️

The final day of the Tayside Trophy is about to start. And it is running to the same order as yesterday.

It is also race day for the Portuguese round of the MotoGP. So, I won't be able to watch LIVE today. But, I'll play catch-up on my kids at least.

Livestream for the Advanced Novice Ladies SP is now on air.

Here is the link for the livestream:

And here is the live scoring:

Hope this helps

:cheer: ALL THE BEST EVERYBODY!!! :cheer:

Was just about to rave over Daria Dalglich in AdvNov FP ......but arrrrggghh those pesky Jumps!


@CaroLiza_fan hopefully the Dundee Ice Livestream company will upload some performances onto YouTube individually.
 
So sad to see when a very young skater is tearful in the K&C with his Coach, and in this case his Father too. Marius Suidek's boy not happy. He skated to Kung Fu Fighting in a black silk shirt. You will live to fight another day Ryszard.

I hope so. It must be so frustrating for them that this has happened, as it has been such a successful event. And it really shines the club in a good light.

When I was doing reminder posts for my kids earlier, the only one I could find a video for was Aleksandra Golovkina. (And boys but I am glad somebody did upload it, because she was great yesterday!)

Awwww. Poor kid. I was planning on winding back to watch him during the adverts, but now that I hear that maybe not. I never like seeing skaters crying, and I have seen it happen too often this week already.

I hope Mariusz can comfort him, both as a coach and as a parent.

This is going to be a really exciting opening group. The entire group is covered by only 1.54 points!!! :jaw: :drama:

And we have an extra sub-plot, as the two Irish girls, Robyn Foster and Sophia Tkacheva, are only separated by 0.01 points! 😲 :drama:

On a personal note, after her disasterous Senior level debut in the Interclub competition earlier in the week, I really hope Robyn has her best skate ever now.

Going to have my dinner now, so will put this up in advance.

☘️ ALL THE BEST ROBYN AND SOPHIA!!! ☘️

Really hoping my fellow Ulsterman Dillon Judge can follow up on his great SP performance yesterday. It would really boost his confidence after he was disappointed with his Junior GP performances.

Excellent FS from Joseph Zakipour to win Junior Men, much better than any of his JGP performances.
Dillon Judge 2nd.

In Junior Women, a clean sweep by the Eastern European Ladies, who are far advanced in their Triple jumping. Top GBR woman was Christie Ann Shannon. I must say, though good Spins and Musical interpretation are good qualities to have, and I am a fan who prefers Jason to Nathan, our GBR skaters need to progress the jumps earlier in their development. You shouldn't reach Junior level and barely be able to perform a clean triple, and that's a Toe not the Lutz. Sorry to sound harsh, but that's the reality of International Skating. Parents pay for lessons and Coaching but often have no idea of the standard to win medals, they have a notion they can "go to Olympics in the future".
