New pair Ayumi Kagotani/Lucas Tsuyoshi Honda debuted their free skate at the JSF qualifying event yesterday. Lots of room for improvement, but Ayumi seems unfazed by the new discipline. Lucas seemed a bit lacking in stamina, so I hope he’s ok health-wise!

Ayumi Kagotani / Lucas Tsuyoshi Honda debuted at the JPN pairs qualifier today! Double twist/throw and slow on the pair elements—as expected at this stage—but the SBS 3Lz was perfectly in sync🤌 Looking forward to their free—and how they look in a year!

Rika Kihira and Shingo Nishiyama form a new ice dance team—I’d wondered why Shingo’s new partner announcement required a press conference, but now I get it. 😄 Happy for them and relieved—I was afraid jump training would leave Rika endlessly re-injured.

Rika Kihira announced she will not compete at the upcoming Chubu regional competition (and is therefore out of contention for Nationals). She says her injury recovery is going well, but she can’t yet practice toe jumps enough to be fully prepared.

In their first event of the season, Yuna Nagaoka/Sumitada Moriguchi increased their PB by just over 18 points. I don’t want to jinx anything, but a second Olympic pairs spot for Japan looks well within reach!

Nice RD by Utana and Masaya (although I’m not feeling this season’s RD theme). Given the nature of ice dance, though, I’m thinking it’ll be pretty difficult for them to climb until after the Olympics.

Great start to Saki Miyake’s first international event! Fitting that Akiko Suzuki did the choreo, considering she gained career steam a bit later, too.

Rinka Watanabe unfortunately down on the 3A, though she landed it in the warmup. Also down on the 3Lo, so no combo.

Oop! Kaori’s planned 3F3T ended up a 2F+combo. Program looked pretty good up until then, though she didn’t look confident at the boards.

Based on the choreography I’ve seen today, I can confidently say: Cartwheels are back, baby! (Maybe they never left…) For me it’s one of the odder trends in figure skating choreo… But I can’t argue that the crowd doesn’t love them! 🤸🏻♂️
