2018 Minto Summer Skate
- Thread starter Mango
- Start date
Iliya's grown and matured... Nice 3As...If he can improve consistency and deliver as he did for the FS, he'll be a contender this season.
I like Corey's big, high jumps...making room for more rotations...expect to see him stabilize more as he fills out up top.

Sorry on my phone and hit send without thinking. Only got to see part of Conrad’s skating plus Stephen and Joseph. Joseph kept his Godfather FP. All looked or acted tired and maybe sore (Conrad and Joseph from hitting the boards last night), all of them stumbled. Some pops and I think Stephen fell once? I think them being tired and the small rink hampered performances.
Ack sorry about repeating same info! My phone was showing nothing new for 45 minutes and so I thought I should put something up
It was a punishing schedule for sure. Everyone looked tired and less energetic than last night. I think Stephen stumbled a few times on the footwork too. Hope he's ok.
Iliya's James Bond program was my favourite performance of the morning.
Me too.
Really enjoyed his skate.Agreed that the small rink affected the performances...
But nationals and ISU events in North America are more often held on North American (i.e. NHL sized) rinks.
Skaters and coaches need to be prepared to skate on both Olympic and North American rinks.
We see similar issues with pairs and dance teams that train on North American rinks, and don't adjust well to full Olympic rinks...

Nice competition for juniors! With all the small problems I have a hint it will be better than senior skating. Honestly, all I want for the older guys to skate clean, and interpret the music. I don't care of big jumps. As for the tiredness. It's normal, it's a summer competition. I am sure that Stephen's program is fairly new, so the stumbles were OK. The quad Luts was good in the air, but he could not land it as his blade slipped. Landing a 4Lz is not a piece of cake. He is only 13 year old. I think this summer competition looks good for junior men.
