Yes I was surprised to see a crowfunding for Zoe Jones & Christopher Boyadji to go to Worlds... Airplane from UK to Finland can be cheap and hotel may be not too expensive too... Maybe I'm a bit optimistic with the money a federation have, but I imagine that to send skaters to Worlds could be a priority?

Support for skaters in the UK seems pretty thin on the ground... Graham Newberry (National champion) also turned to crowdfunding donations in order to get to junior and senior World's this year.
I'm not sure "Finland", "hotel" and "cheap" all belong in the same sentence! ;-D

Did anyone notice that "Melvin" rather than "Kevin" Aymoz is listed as an entry for France. The bio link goes to Kevin, though.

OMG!!!!!!! I've seen this some time before! I mean yes it went viral so yeah but I remember this.
Most of those people seeing this video now have no idea she's going to junior worlds.
They certainly had no trouble sending Kramer and Wust (plus various other skaters) to Norway to grab the World championship all-round gold medals in speed ice skating there, so... Or hosting (!) the short track world championships next week.Yes I don't know the official reason too, maybe both are injured (and I would feel a bit stupid), but the coincidence is too big... And for a wealthy country of 18 millions inhabitants were skating was born, that's a bit deceiving to send nobody at Junior Worlds
There's plenty of money going around in ice skating here. But figure skating? Certainly doesn't feel like it. :noshake:
Thank goodness! Now I don't have to worry about her being to tired for worlds! I hope she's getting some quality time training with Brian so she can get her jumps stable.

Good call. Doing 4CC and AWG was one after another was enough.

I feel so pity about her late wd..
if she wd earlier, then Alana Toktarova can compete at jr worlds for her first time and could gain her experience and it didn`t happen!
hwell:and I personally wish to see Alana at jr worlds.. so pity.:noshake:

Toktarova was on the alternate list... But removed too! Strange

Alana really impressed me in Yokohama. A real pity for her on missing out JWs.
