To close this thread (all updates moved to @latinskating)
I wanted to post this image that gives a better understanding of which LATAM countries will participate in which JGP event! ✨

And this was a clean program
Yes there were rough edges in stsq and spins. But as a technical layout this is pretty much ahead of anything we have seen in the past 4 years in seniors at least
Even if the GOE and PCS are conservative, this still scores around 140 which is insane under new scoring system
Also, if you think this is Sasha's final form this system. You can't be more mistaken.. This lady has a fierceness of desire that is impossible to comprehend for the vast majority of people. If at her first competition, she lags behind Mao and Ami in scores (which is likely) , do you think she will sit still? She will add more complexity, will work even harder to remove the rough edges.
This is one of the most inspiring and impactful sportspersons in history
And in any sport,participants work around their strengths to maximise their scores. A wonderful step sequence maybe more aesthetically appealing to many, but a jump score higher.
Mathematics trumps the eye test everytime (and for many of us, an incredible jump at insane rotational speed, distance and height is no less jaw dropping than a perfectly executed Biellmann)
Salute to the Quad Queen
A true phenomenon!
mi opinión un poco controversial pero muy cinéfila es q no se puede vivir de ver únicamente películas recomendadas +4 estrellas o clásicos, hay que ver mediocridades de vez en cuando (sobre todo los domingos)
i can’t take any takes about abuse in figure skating from fstwt seriously because you guys act as though it’s uniquely different in russia than it is in other countries
Seeing geriatric (24) Americans crying over teenage AIN athletes (who are actually Russian) winning it all at the first jgp fills me with a sense of joy I haven’t felt since 2022 😋
Una morrita de 17 rozando senior anda saltando quads mientras nos tuvimos q tragar un 1-2 en 2026 con 0 ultra C pero ella juran que estábamos mejor y que las alegaciones que les hacían no eran reales ajsjjsjkak
