Newsletter Fisg 12-12-12 Mercoledì 12 dicembre 2012/Anno III n° 59 /Newsletter settimanale a cura Ufficio Stampa FISG SPONSOR FORNITORI Short Track: staffetta femminile da podio a Shanghai ISTITUZIONI PRIMA PAGINA FIGURA: Cappellini e Lanotte ottimi quarti alle Finali Grand Prix di Sochi Anna Cappellini e Luca Lanotte erano gli unici rappresentanti italiani alla Finale del Grand Prix 2012/2013 disputata nel fine settimana a Sochi, in Russia. Ma gli Azzurri della Danza sono riusciti comunque a lasciare il segno, grazie al quarto posto, dietro a statunitensi -gli unici in grado di contrastare il dominio russo- giapponese- canadesi e francesi ma soprattutto davanti alle due coppie russe, impresa non semplice sul ghiaccio di casa, lo stesso che nel 2014 ospiterà i Giochi Olimpici Invernali. Un ottimo risultato, anche in prospettiva dei prossimi Campionati Europei di Zagabria (21-27 gennaio), quando Anna e Luca lotteranno per il gradino più alto del podio continentale. Russi e giapponesi si sono poi divisi tutte le altre gare: nelle finali Junior i padroni di casa hanno fatto quattro su quattro, mentre fra i Senior il Giappone si è aggiudicato l’individuale maschile e femminile e la Russia la competizione di Artistico a coppie.

Subscribe Login Register HOME SCHEDULE + RESULTS SKATERS NEWS PHOTOS FANS 'Small­town boy' Abbott earns fourth, final crown Brown's artistry lands him silver; Disappointed Aaron settles for bronze Posted 1/12/14 by Lynn Rutherford, special to icenetwork Jeremy Abbott returned to his rightful place: the top of the U.S. senior men's podium. His performance of his Muse free skate wasn't his best, with a quad and just four clean triples, but his components score (93.42) was the highest of the event. His score of 274.27 is a new U.S. record and gave him his fourth career national title. ­Jay Adeff It wasn't as magical as Thursday's short program, but Jeremy Abbott's free skate won him a fourth U.S. title and second trip to the Olympics on Sunday at the 2014 Prudential U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Boston's TD Garden. The 28­year­old skater, who has announced this is his final competitive season, landed a quadruple toe loop and four clean triples ­­ including a triple Axel­double toe combination ­­ in an emotional, finely nuanced program that earned 174.41 points. His 274.27­point total was enough to hold off a charging Jason Brown, who won the free skate with an exuberant outing to Riverdance. http://web.icenetwork.com/news/2014/01/12/66520210/small-town-boy-abbott-earns-fourth-final-crown 1/4 6/30/2018 'Small-town boy' Abbott earns fourth, final crown | icenetwork.com: Your home for figure skating and speed skating.

  • Four Continents Men's Recap
    The Skating Lesson Podcast Transcript Four Continents Men’s Recap Jenny Kirk: Hello, and welcome to The Skating Lesson Podcast! I’m Jennifer Kirk, a former US ladies competitor and a three-time world team member. Dave Lease: I’m David Lease, I was not on the world team as you know by now! But I am a figure skating blogger and a current adult skater. Jenny: In this video, we’re going to talk about the Four Continents Championships, particularly the men’s event, which took place last weekend in Osaka Japan. And right now you’re looking at the results on your screen. Kevin Reynolds from Canada won the gold medal followed by Yuzuru Hanyu, Han Yan, Max Aaron, Richard Dornbush, and all Americans heading out the top nine – Ross Miner in ninth place. Absence of Patrick Chan, Canada Dave: Yes, and I think – notably, Patrick Chan was not here. He chose not to compete here after the national championships. I think it’s interesting that he’s not here. He hasn’t been the dominant force this year that he was last year, even though he did have mistakes last year as well. But he chose to really regroup. Many felt that he perhaps felt that he was one-upped by Kevin Reynolds at their nationals. Kevin did so well there, and it looks like Patrick is trying to refocus. Jeremy Abbot chose not to compete here – he had a lot of back issues this year, and he chose to rest, recover, and get ready for the world championships*.

On behalf of U.S. Figure Skating, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2014 Hilton HHonors Skate America. As we begin the 20th ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series, we look forward to great performances by some of the world’s most gifted athletes. Skate America is the first of six events in the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Series and features 56 competitors, many of whom competed in the Sochi Olym- pics, from 18 countries gathering here to showcase their skills and talents. At the conclusion of the Grand Prix Series, the top skaters qualify for the Grand Prix Final, taking place Dec. 11–14 in Barcelona, Spain. Over the next three days, skaters will compete for medals in ladies, men’s, pairs and ice dance. As the season continues, many of these athletes will compete for a spot on their respective nation’s World Team. We wish them the best as the season continues. I would like to thank the coaches, officials, volunteers, parents and fans for their continued support of the sport of figure skating. And to the athletes, thank you for your determination, dedication and love of the sport. You are the true backbone of the sport of figure skating.
