Thanks for the info. Gadbois Teams are out ! Quite interested to see all their programs especially H/D. Their SD's music choice is intriguing to say the least. I also want to see if Paul/Islam will bounce back after last year's disappointed season. I quite enjoy this team, nice lines and smooth skating but lack of identity.

Sackie · Sep 13, 2016

This is Hubbell/Donohue's to win! Paul/Islam should be in there for a medal but one never knows.

semosk8tfan · Sep 14, 2016

I am beyond excited to watch this event...so don't mess it up Icenetwork

tulosai · Sep 15, 2016

I'm actually interested in a lot of these couples even though there are very few 'major names'... I think it's too bad that ice network basically has a total monopoly on this event since it basically ensures no one from outside the USA will be able to see it unless they can find who they're looking for on youtube.

And we can find videos on YouTube only if someone has recorded the competition and uploaded videos. I remember that last season someone had recorded Hubbell/Donohue's programs from this competition and put them up on YouTube, but the videos were unlisted, and links were shared only through private messages. We'll be lucky if the same happens this season and if the person who records does this with more than one team/skater per each discipline. I hope someone is going to take pity on us here in Europe and on interested skating fans in other countries outside of US.

What is up with no skate order yet?

blue eyed birds · Sep 15, 2016

In defense of unlisted videos and rare videos, a few seasons ago I know of someone who did attempt to share videos from the event on YouTube and immediately received a copyright warning and had to remove the uploads. Icenetwork/USFS is sometimes quick to slap these things down (sometimes true with Nationals too). So I sympathize with both sides. Just know that if it's hard to find stuff in public spaces, it might not be because no one wants to share.

Yup. YT is not safe.... I wonder if at other platforms there would be the same problems.

Oh for sure, and in general I don't feel super strongly about this issue... in this particular case though it really is unfortunate since ice network, as far as I know, has exclusive rights worldwide but only people who live in America can buy an ice network package. If anyone could pay to see it, I might still complain, but I wouldn't feel it was unfair in quite the way I do in this instance. As things stand, there is no way for anyone who is not in America to legally see this event unless I'm mistaken, and I don't think that's right.

99% sure the following information is accurate:

Anyone can pay to watch the US Classic. It is possible for those outside the U.S. to purchase an IN subscription. Legally purchase, of course.
The US Classic and US Nats are some of the comps that *are not* geoblocked for those outside the U.S. who have paid for an IN subscription.

That said, other comps (such as GPs and ISU championships) *are* geoblocked for those outside the U.S. who have paid for an IN subscription.

Not commenting on whether the situation is "fair."
Just trying to fill you in on what the situation is.

ETA:

The link below lists the comps that are *not* available worldwide to IN subscribers.

Oh, I do understand that. And I was not really blaming anyone. I was just feeling a bit sorry for myself and other people who probably were not going to be able to see much of this competition as the entry list is quite good

. But, as it turns out, the wonderful YouTuber 0316seisato has already uploaded quite a lot of videos, and at least for now they are available to everyone (not unlisted, that is). That's why I added the smile emoticon

. I hope those videos won't be taken down too soon.

Yes, not really worth the price, in my opinion. And I can watch GPs and other ISU championships for free through other channels anyway.

Again, I merely was providing information to tulosai.
Was not making any judgment as to whether an IN subscription is worthwhile or not -- for anyone.

The first SLC blog post from Joe Johnson has been posted. I once again am enjoying that his writing style is very entertaining and self-deprecating. Exanple of his humor :laugh:

:

... Events like these are crazy, because when you’re not at the hotel you see well known skaters all over the place. I ran into Satoko Miyahara and Takahito Mura at a Whole Foods; rather I saw them while eating popcorn like a savage at a wooden table and I had to try and eat it in a slightly more dignified manner after realizing they were present. ...

My "Yes" at the beginning must have mislead you. I was not agreeing with some imagined thing that you actually did not say, but merely expressing my opinion.

ruffledgrouse · Sep 16, 2016

We should be starting in five minutes. I'll have to duck out for a client in an hour, but hope to be back for the ladies. Of course, this is assuming there will be streaming today.

Fingers crossed!

ruffledgrouse · Sep 16, 2016

I've never seen anyone pose before they were announced the way the Canadians did. I thought my sound was behind.

Didn't Piper and Paul do that before their (amazing) Hitchcock programme?

Icenotwork is insufferable!!!

Princessroja · Sep 16, 2016

Bonus points for White Christmas music and themed dress. :love:

TMC · Sep 16, 2016

I'm here for Min/Gamelin! WERK IT

Princessroja · Sep 16, 2016

Deducted points for La Vie En Rose. Sorry, Karina and Joseph. And 0 points for IN for making me miss 70% of that presumably delightful skate.:dev2:
