It's figure skating season y'all! And, as usual, I will be highlighting Black skaters and skaters of color like 17 yo Caleb Farrington. He made his debut in the Junior Grand Prix series today in Baku, Azerbaijan and placed 4th in the short program. Take a look. #jgpfigure youtu.be/6AtZlxgNCuk?...

Skaters criticise Latvian federation’s delayed and inconsistent funding - by @choreosequence.bsky.social anythinggoe.com/latvia-part-3/

I have so many #ChineseNebelhorn feelings to process that I feel like I’m going to take a nap and have a nightmare

Trying to be happy for those who made it while being mad about the ones that didn’t.

what a time for every FUCKIN TEAM TO GET EARLY SEASON CHST CALLS #ChineseNebelhorn #SkateToMilano

Both Yoshida/Morita & Reitan/Majorov got ! on their choreo steps, which cost 1-1.5pts for both teams; Y/M's was more obvious, I can't figure out why R/M got theirs (could be a repeat of steps), but in a competition this close, those made the difference bit.ly/4mry0CD #ChineseNebelhorn #SkateToMilano

I was absolutely mesmerized throughout Milla and Nikolaj's backwards R&J. That was stunning. However, Nikolaj is better than that bland all-black costume. #ChineseNebelhorn

Utana and Masaya bringing the drama and passion this event was missing! Loved the hydroblade and the twizzles on that iconic dramatic swell! That's absolutely an Olympics-worthy program. #ChineseNebelhorn

HELLO??? I woke up late so I'm about an hour behind but Verhaegh/van Geffen 🇳🇱 free dance????? I am COMPLETELY obsessed #SkatetoMilano

Oh, Ruiyang bursting into tears when she saw she'd made the guaranteed top five. I am so full of emotion for her! #ChineseNebelhorn

Jumps are fake, only Josefin's skating skills are real. That choreo sequence is stunning! #ChineseNebelhorn

28.50? Seriously??? #SkateToMilano #ChineseNebelhorn ⛸️

Nobody brings figure skating to the club the way Loena Hendrickx brings figure skating to the club #ChineseNebelhorn

Results from Olympic qualifying today. You can watch on YouTube, it’s not geoblocked! ⛸️

You can actually find Josefin Taljegård's picture in the International Dictionary of Figure Skating under "Jumps are Fake"

Josefin Taljegard SWE 3F(q,step), 3T2T, 2A stepseq 3, all spins 4 TES 25.69, PCS 28.60, SP 54.29 into 7th - spin/stepseq GOEs and PCS are all way too low bit.ly/4mkPLUh #SkateToMilano #ChineseNebelhorn

SEND MIA TO THE OLYMPICS IMMEDIATELY #ChineseNebelhorn

Awe gotta love hearing a skater in the Kiss&Cry saying "Finally!" when they see their score #ChineseNebelhorn

Next time you see a shark 🦈, know that they are coming at you with a three-jump combo with a base value of 10.70 #SharkNaki

cw: physical and emotional abuse, injury, violence New Allegations Emerge as Latvian Club Defends Coaches Accused of Abuse - by @izyone.bsky.social and @choreosequence.bsky.social anythinggoe.com/latvia-part-2/

Listening to The Runthrough Women's Lore 3 and its CRAZY to hear the sentence (approx 2006) "Brian Orser had never worked with a skater at this level before" WHAT. I mean everyone starts sometime but WHAT #therunthroughpod #figureskating

!!!!!

🎤This week, Michelle and I talk about both the beauty of Guo/Zhang’s quad twist and the likely reason why the call could not have been corrected per the rulebook 🎙️Apple Podcasts: bit.ly/rockerpodapple 🎙️Spotify: bit.ly/rockerpodspotify 🎙️YouTube: bit.ly/rockerpodyt

What we all came here for… #figureskating

One thing of note from yesterday is that Guo/Zhang did a quad twist and it was only credited as a triple twist (no correction). It wouldn’t have changed the final standings, so it’s fairly benign but that’s an egregious judging error

We have received a response from the ISU regarding the abuse allegations detailed in our article.
