Yi Christy Leung competes for Hong-Kong. Can she get the GP spots of China?

My bad, and I meant to put a question mark at the end of the last sentence :eek:: :slink:

Yi competed at the nationals, so I took for granted that the Chinese fed would give her a spot :biggrin:

Lu Chen is now leading some ice dancers training in Christopher Dean's Ice rink.
Based on the Social media, Chinese Fed is now trying to let their girls pair up with some foreign ice dancers from Russia and Belarus

Wow, it would be the first time we see non-chinese skaters representing China! And at least 7 senior ice dance teams?

Thank you for the information. The only one I recall seeing is Linshu Song. Can you tell us anything about the other three athletes? I see that Yuhan Feng was 6th at 2018 Chinese Nationals.

If we see them representing China. China does not so easily send out its pair & dance teams, and neither of these guys are at the level that they have ISU bios? (Or does the spelling above not match & am I missing finding them?) Interesting, though. I am glad to hear about the effort to further develop the Chinese ice dance program.

Update: I found Prachnov. (His first name is spelled Alexandr on the ISU bio I found for him). 7th in juniors at 2014 NRW Trophy.

Ilya Yukhimuk has competed in the US before, and he ranked 4th in junior in 2017 midwestern sectional,

There is an only video I have found on youtube

As for Feng Yuhan, She was relatively mediocre among the Chinese Ice dancers in terms of the scores and barely got the chance to compete overseas, so she is not that famous like other Chinese female Ice dancers like Chen Hong, Song Linshu, and Wang Shiyue who consistently represent China to compete overseas

English is more likely. I remember Lu Chen speaking English to her husband, also the Russian/Italian ice dance coach to the top ice dance team of China. It would be easier on both sides of the partners

Thank you for the info, and that's very reasonable. Although I don't watch dances, I hope the Chinese dance teams improve significantly in the new season!

Team China 2019 looks really stronger than Team China 2018!
Ashley Lin represented USA at Nebelhorn 2018 where she scored 181 points. So she'll be eligible after october.
Emily Zhang only took part at US national competitions so she already can represent another country internationally.
Angel Li skated at an Asian regional event where she scored 139 points last season. I can't find how old she is?

Which Emily Zhang? There were 2 really good ones from the East, both about the same age. One was out of Richmond, VA and the second was out of the New England, NY/NJ area.
