I would be shocked if that happened. H/D have just revamped their FD and will want to perform it before ISU judges prior to Worlds.
But they do every year. So....:confused2:

I'm glad that the FD that I like the most this season won. Congratulations to Madison and Evan . I wish them the best (gold) at worlds.
Also, C/B's free dance has over 800k views on YouTube. It's by and far the highest viewed routine from Nats (slightly suprising, I expected Nathan, Alysa, or Mariah's free program to get that title). It doesn't mean anything in the long run, but I'm happy that a larger audience is able to see their mesmerizing routine.
Avonley & Vadym, World Junior champions! Congratulations. ...
It seems that the 3rd 2022 spot is between Hawayek/Baker, Green/Parsons and McNamara/Carpenter. I wouldn't be surprised if G/P rose up in the next 2 years and got it. With the way H/B are going they could miss worlds next year. I don't think they'll leave Gadbois because they seem so happy there but I don't know if it's the best place for them.
New article about Chock/Bates ... including what went into the creation of their FD: researching belly dancing videos, studying images of snakes, finding the braiding technique for Evan's costume, and much more. (Colorful phrasing : "even Chock's hair was all in".)
From the discussion of their preparation for Worlds:
FD: In the weeks after the Four Continents Championships, they added more character and speed as well as details with the arms. ...
SD: ... For Worlds, they had prepared a more powerful ending.
