Ohhh! Veillon and Brandys with some deeeep edges and nice ice coverage in their midline. Their pattern wasn't as good, but they were RIGHT on their music for that whole program and really performed well. Another team I had never heard of but really enjoyed! Amazing packaging as well.

#konner talks skating #and they are scott moir team!!!!!!!1 #of course they are #hilarious the two teams i like so far are both IAM #one in montreal one in ontario #bless

[anewbeginningagain]

I don’t even know if there is any move that is worth it for Gr/Pa other than IAM. Scott is doing amazing work at IAM.O, but I’m not sure he has the same political pull as Marie-France, and Gr/Pa need good programs, solid technique training and some politicking to get out of the rut they’re in — not unlike where Chock/Bates were before going to IAM.

The K&C with Charlie, Tanith and Gr/Pa was tense and awkward. And if Gr/Pa don’t leave, it’s going to be crazy tense at that camp. You could see that Bratti/Somerville were really subdued when they saw they would medal.

Part of me wonders if Gr/Pa falling off would give H/B any hope for a return, but Jean-Luc seems to have a new venture with Nathan Chen so H/B might really be done done. Sadly.

I think the move to Montreal to claim the spot vacated by H/B make a lot of sense. I also think that if they want to really build the Ontario branch, giving Scott the next potential top 2 US teams will really put the school on the map (but will also add pressure).

Will be interesting to see how Green/Parsons will at 4CC, a medal can go a long way, and the fight for Bronze and potentially even silver given how big of a question mark Canadanes are, is going to be fascinating.

There is no damn way Tessa will show up at IAM Ontario to work with Scott as long as Cara is there & Jacket Slacket is in the picture. He made it very clear he cannot have Tessa in his life if he wants to have a personal life (another woman & family). Tessa is taking his wishes seriously. Do people not remember how he treated her at WOF Ilderton? He was a total ass . He was disrespectful, rude & obnoxious. Do people not remember how he treated her in RTR? He treated her like she had leprosy when Jacket was in the audience. I think Tessa is being respectful of his wishes because she wants him to be happy with his choice. She is also trying to carve out something in ice dance for herself away from Scott. I hope she succeeds & Fear &Gibson do really well!

delulus can pretend that money is the issue until they're crossed in the eyes as if she wouldnt drop everything for him once jackie is officially out of the picture

#if only he tried NOT GETTING TOGETHER WITH AN INSECURE ASSHOLE #before burning bridges but unfourtunaly his brain is warped

T​he possibilities in life are endless if we allow them to be. This is our choice to decide. Ask yourself with the 3 above pictures to imagine them as realities. . Imagine finding a tree trunk jutting out the side of a cliffs edge or on the side of a steep embankment strong enough to build a house upon. Not just a treehouse for kids, but an actual fully functional house that has every feature you've dreamed of... . And once you've built this dream house, you decide you want more. You still don't feel satisfied and when you look out your window, at the moon above, you wonder what would it be like to walk there...to somehow walk to the moon...so, what if there was a ladder?? What if you were the one to build that ladder?? . And with the last picture, are you sure yet if you are bringing a piece of the moon home with you, returning a piece that you borrowed, or adding newness to its beauty? . S​top reading for a few minutes and let yourself get lost in these imaginations...be part of what you imagine...feel it... . H​ow much bigger did these 3 pictures become? . Can you imagine the possibilities when you do this to your own ideas? . W​hat might happen if you let your dreams expand? . T​his is how life is created. WE create life. YOU create your life. . (Just a little bit of my latest writing piece to share…the one Quizzy is so eager for me to finish) . . . #creativity #imagine #possibilities #whatif #dream #dreams #live #dreambig #whoareyou #iam #thefuture #mindset #perspective #fearLESS #livefree #boba #10x #truetoyou #lifebydesign (at North Bay, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpDClfLLdlg/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Do you think it's significant that the major moves made by teams post-Olys have all been to MIDA and WISA and not IAM? IAM Montreal have an Estonian team and a Ukrainian one move to them. IAM Ontario doesn't seem to have any new teams

No, I don’t think it’s significant, as in something to worry about, if that’s what you meant. Teams generally think about moving before their season starts - and that means springtime/post-last competition, and before they start putting together new programs; at the time, Adri and Madison weren’t part of the coaching team and so Ontario/Scott (as the big name draw) would have been hopping. Now they’ve got some time to all gel and get their feet wet as coaches and it gives Scott a bit of breathing room. I.Am constantly gets criticized for having too many teams but then when a team goes elsewhere there’s still grumbling lol.

Meanwhile, Charlie and Tanith and coaches are new and exciting and a genuine option for teams, especially US teams looking for an in-country experience, considering that the biggest schools have all gone by the wayside (as happens), plus they have relatively recent Olympic and Worlds success. And WISA had the exposure of Green/Parsons break-through, which always helps bring in some new blood looking for their own climb up the ladder.

This post-Olympics season will see a lot of settling down into new directions, as always.

I was thinking about the MIDA vibe and why we all found it a bit sterile, and I think I know what they're trying to go for. You know how Montreal are considered the "artists", and now we have IAMO who are kinda the "feelers" but also have strong technical? And even within these camps, you have Marie-France who is kinda the creative visionary, Patch who is the tech master/manager, and Romain who brings the entertainment value and performance. In London, we have Scott as the heart and overall leader, Madi is clearly doing wonders with the students' confidence and performance quality, and Adrian is emerging as the gifted choreographer of the bunch (with Sheri as a dark horse here as well). Even back in the day, we had Igor who was branded as "the technician" and Marina was "the choreographer".

Right. Well. I think MIDA sat down and thought about how they're going to market themselves within this landscape, especially given who their geographical competition is, and what they've settled on is "the professors". I think they're having a rough time, they've bitten off more than they can chew, and think they have to look "serious" in order to keep their head above water on the one hand, and on the other to differentiate themselves in some way. The problem is that they don't have the mettle to back it up and got handed free political points based on their pedigree alone. We know from Charlie's commentary that he can be nitpicky to the point of being petty sometimes, but I don't think he's the kind of person who necessarily knows how to create the missing ingredients, he can just diagnose them. Now, we saw Scott struggle in the beginning too and it's understandable, but the thing is, Scott is much more emotionally sincere. They, on the other hand, I think are panicking right now, people are comparing them unfavorably to the other camps, WolfChen are having a trainwreck of a season, and G/P's momentum from last year has all but been reversed. So what do they do? "Oh, we went to college, we're affiliated with UMich, we're assigning essays to our skaters, we're intellectuals." Except... They kind of have nothing. They don't have that balance of warm, people-first coaching with strong results that the skaters who graduated from IAM have because they've never experienced it, having been with Marina and/or Igor almost their entire athletic careers. And they aren't bringing in the kind of creative talent that they so painfully need, so I don't know how they plan to move forward with this. I actually think Madi and Adrian will decide to stay in London long-term because this setup is working out so well, there's a magic to that crew and their skaters are radiant, the girls in particular are glowing. Anyway, I think Chanith & Co. are out of their depth and they're trying to overcompensate, but it isn't coming off great, especially in contrast with the other camps, and I won't be surprised if at least one team jumps ship next season because I don't see MIDA producing any sort of creative vision. Just my 2c, I hope I managed to explain what I mean, I'm not trying to be snarky or anything, just being real.

Well, this is actually a fascinating take. I think I really agree with the stuff about I.AM and I.AM Ontario, I think as you said I.AM managed to create a clear identity for their school and a clear identity for the main coaches - as you said Patrice is the technician and the manager (he manages the ice time for the insane number of teams they have), Marie France is the mama bear with the artistic vision, and Romain is the entertainer who knows how to work a crowd. At the same time, they are all more than that, just thinking of how Scott shared how inspired he was by Patrice's calm and focused energy by the boards. With I.AM Ontario like you, I think they are really finding their groove, I think Scott is and will always be the beating heart, but Adria and Madi bring so much to the table just like you described, and I think his family members who have so much experience are really managing to utilize it in the best possible way now, including giving some of the senior teams a bunch or really strong programs.

With MIDA I think you really nailed it by calling out how much they are lacking the variety of experience with different coaches, Charlie trained with Igor and Marina for most if not all of his competitive career, Tanith too with only her last two competitive seasons being with other coaches, and Greg also was only coached by Igor and Marina and worked for years with Igor. That's an alarming lack of experience with other coaching styles and philosophies tbh. And with USFS so eager to make them the US answer to I.AM (at least imo) they gave them too much too fast and MIDA for some reason chose not to use outside choreographers when it feel like they very much needed to.

The thing about the vibe is that Tanith for example came across as very warm and energetic in her commentary style, so it was more than odd to see her so reserved and cold by the boards. Charlie usually had the energy of a puppy dog but here he was also very reserved and severe looking. And Greg is Greg, I usually feel like he gives me nothing tbh. And the thing is, there's a significant level of being performative to being by the boards, some do it naturally because they are passionate people (Romain, MF, Scott, Adria, Barb), some have a strong fierce presence to them even if they are more stoic (Patrice, Madi) and some just feel warm (Pascal). With Charlie and Tanith it just feels like there's a lack of connection with their own teams and that's what the most alarming in it all. It's not that I think it necessarily says something about them as coaches, but it does come across in a very odd way.

But really enjoyed your take on it all, it got me thinking quite a lot.

[inkstained-wretch]

Considering that Scott embodied the tiger even in the photos with Jackie and that Tessa now, regardless of her choices, is now considered by the new members of the IAM ONTARIO to be completely non-existent in Scott's career and fame and fortune, someone is brave enough to reply to these posts with the photo of Scott and Jackie his first skating partner and wife as well as goddess of jealousy? I would do it but unfortunately I'm not very good with technology.

nooooo WHY'D U HAVE TO REMIND ME OF THAT!!!!!!

[icecollectivebouquet]

I was hoping to see an actual new school that would be in direct competition with Gadbois but I guess they’re just too powerful 🤔

lol like im going to put my skating fan cape now 

it would be stupid for both sides if scott opened a school alone. Scott doesnt have the experience and most importantly he doesnt have the influence that Marie France and Patrice have. There’s already TWO ontario schools that do ice dance that already have really good teams. He literally wouldnt have much alone. Lets not forget that gadbois bonus points are real and not having them at first would be a big disappointment for his teams.

no other way would have worked. he was always going to coach with IAM.

#Anonymous #the bad side for IAM would be having another school in ontario up their asses #but scott was the one who needed the msot
