Meagan Duhamel/Eric Radford (CAN) strike gold Meagan Duhamel/Eric Radford of Canada came from second place in the Short Program to strike the Pairs gold. China’s Wenjing Sui/Cong Han earned the silver medal and Aljona Savchenko/ Bruno Massot of Germany captured the bronze medal in their debut as a team at the World Championships. Duhamel/Radford put out a flawless performance to “Hometown Glory”, nailing a triple twist, side by side triple Lutz, throw quadruple Salchow, triple toe-double toe-double toe combination, a throw triple flip as well as four level-four elements.

  • Proposal for Change
    Realizing Figure Skating’s Potential: Proposal for a New Competition Structure and Format! ! !Despite being an Olympic year, participant numbers in figure skating are down; audience ratings are down; revenues (media and sponsorship) are down. In the few steps below we fix these problems, broaden the field of figure skating, and prepare for its future.! !Quickly examine some astute comments, illuminating the problems, on the figure skating events at the 2014 Olympic Games: 1) “The Team Event seemed as if it were nothing more than an event created for television to gain viewers and revenue — it didn’t do anything to broaden the sport or make it more interesting.” 2) “How do you know what the jumps are and how they are judged?” 3) “Why do many of the skaters swing their arms around now? Does it add more points?” 4) “It’s so frantic; I can’t relate to the skaters the way I used to.” 5) “It looks like they threw in some of that new ‘flex dance’ or ‘Cirque du Soleil' on ice”. And 6) “I thought the new judging system was created so that there would be no more judging controversies.”! !To sum up the problems and changes needed (for the sake of simplicity we’ll focus on singles events, but this proposal is intended to address all disciplines, singles, pairs, dance): 1) The audience and skaters want something different in figure skating, similar to the way skiing has evolved into a multitude of different events. 2) The audience wants to be educated, to know exactly: which jump (throw, lift, etc.) is which; what makes a better jump and therefore gets a higher grade; what to look for in the execution of a jump; what the spins are (or pair spins, mohawks, twizzles, etc.) and how they are performed and judged.

  • Wenjing Sui/Cong Han (CHN) Soar to Pairs Gold in Saitama
    March 21, 2019 Saitama, Japan Wenjing Sui/Cong Han (CHN) soar to Pairs gold in Saitama China’s Wenjing Sui/Cong Han soared to the Pairs gold medal as the ISU World Figure Skating Championships in Saitama (JPN) on Thursday. Russia’s Evgenia Tarasova/Vladimir Morozov settled for the silver medal while their teammates Natalia Zabiiako/Alexander Enbert earned the bronze. All three teams set new seasons best scores. Skating last, Sui/Han delivered a brilliant performance to “Rain, In Your Black Eyes” by Ezio Bosso, hitting a triple toe-double toe-double toe combination, triple twist, triple Salchow, throw triple flip and throw triple Salchow as well as level-four lifts. The reigning Olympic silver medalists scored 155.60 points for their Free Skating and moved up from second to first at 234.84 points to win their second World title after 2017. “We are very happy to have shown our best performance and to win this Championship. We had a tough time we could not prepare so well and did not have much time to practice. Our coaches and our team gave us a lot of support and we knew we can make it and get the title. Winning the second time was harder and it was a team effort,” Sui commented. Overnight leaders Tarasova/Morozov turned in a strong performance to “Winter” by Balmorhea that featured a big triple twist, throw triple loop and Salchow as well as spectacular lifts. However, Morozov was somewhat shaky on the solo jumps triple toe and triple Salchow. The two-time European Champions picked up 147.26 points and slipped to second at 228.47 points.
