Delobel and Schoenfelder are one of my favorite ice dancers because they had always presented innovative themes and tricks and their tenacity impressed me a lot. However, they retired 6 years ago at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, so this fanfest is like an archive to accumulate their accomplishment in figure skating. As my first encounter with ice dance was Duchesnays, French ice dancers are always in my corner. I divide three posts, instead of the opening post having all materials to introduce the skaters' career because that would be much easier and lighter when to add or to update their post competitive careers or to fill in missing contents like videos and their other ice shows.

I really thank to all uploaders on YouTube. Enjoy!

Wow. Thanks for your work. They were never my absolutely favorite dance team, but I really think their 'Carnival in Venice' FD was underappreciated. Maybe it's just me.

Not just you. :) but I remember I preferred the earlier season version to the Olympics version.

Of course people have different preferences and tastes. That is why our sport with diverse styled skaters is exciting and fun to watch. Yes I wanted them to get an Olympic medal before their retirement and felt they were underestimated during most of their career. The bronze was so close at Torino...I also prefer the program's Euro version to the Olympic one. If they wouldn't missed out the whole season due to Isabell's pregnancy Olivier's injury before Vancounver, the podium could've been different. That supposition would've gone the same to Do/Sh or De/St though (at least the former earned a bronze)

Not just you. :) but I remember I preferred the earlier season version to the Olympics version.

I agree. I like the Euros version the most. I also always enjoyed the creativeness of some of their lifts.

Thankyou so much Mia 29.Lovely to see Isabelle again.She went on to have another child I didn't know that.If anyone can translate a little it would be great.:)

Interview with Isabelle Delobel: "I always knew what I wanted, I have no regrets" (in French) Le Messager Nov. 25.2015

The article on Isabell's new life after her competitive career was published in the similar time to the video, so the printed article that could get translated via the Google tool can be useful for you. She said she is happy with the current life style and grateful for what she has been given.

Regarding her second son, she gave a birth in Sept. 2012 according to her page of the French Wikipedia.
