I don't think I'll be able to manage it this time.

The skating is all being archived on the ISU JGP YouTube channel for those who aren't able to watch it live

I've been watching the rhythm dance this morning - two warm-up groups done and two to go after the resurfacing

The competition portion of this event is now complete. Canada's team comes away with one medal - a silver in the men's event. Although our top dance team was third in the free skate, they finished in 4th overall (by about 1/2 a point).









I'm not sure why junior skaters receive what appear to be wine decanters as part of their award!?!

The full results in all three disciplines, as well as the detailed protocols, can be found here: http://www.isuresults.com/results/seaso ... gpfra2019/

The exhibition gala will be live streamed on the ISU JGP YouTube channel at 2:30 p.m. EDT; archived videos of the live streams are already available.

Apparently their were some problems with the archived video of the Gala with the music and video out of sync. This has been corrected. The opening number begins after the 12 minute mark: https://youtu.be/O00SiwFK1Qs
