This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.
This will take place in Sisak, CRO. It would have been the 10th (and final) CS event but it is actually only the 9th one taking place, after an earlier one was cancelled.
The Entries by discipline are now listed and include only one Canadian - Roman Sadovsky - here's hoping his luggage will make it there!
Roman Sadovsky moves forward to Golden Spin of Zagreb
November 23, 2023/by Skate Canada
OTTAWA, ON (November 23, 2023) – Olympian and 2022 Canadian Tire National Championships silver medallist Roman Sadovsky is set to compete at the Golden Spin of Zagreb from December 6-9, 2023 in Sisak, Croatia. This will be Sadovsky’s first international competition this season after he was forced to withdraw from the Warsaw Cup last month due to unforeseen circumstances. He will be the only Canadian competing in the event.
The Challenger Series is an International Figure Skating Series designed to give skaters adequate opportunities to compete at the international senior level and to earn precious World Standing Points.
And in an unbelievable turn of events, Roman Sadovsky will once more be unable to make his international debut for this season!!
From Skate Canada on X (formerly Twitter):
We are sad to report that @_romansadovsky
will once again be unable to compete this week due to numerous weather-related travel delays
We are however looking forward to seeing him back in full force at the #SCNats24 in one month!
In another update, there will be NO livestream - free or otherwise.
For those wondering Niina Petrõkina was a last-minute withdrawal, it has now been reported that she "broke her leg in training for Golden Spin, she will miss Estonian Nationals and Europeans. It is likely that Nataly Langerbaur and Kristina Lisovskaja will represent Estonia at Europeans."
She was in Zagreb and was seen on crutches with her leg in a cast at the time of the SP so I believe this incident happened in the training there
