PattyP: Wish I could be there so I can put axel dust on there for you right. Let's hope the person I've sent does it right for me.

Go pedonskates too! (She's not logging on much, but I figured I've add her on there!)

Side note: Jazzpants reads the Championship list of competitors and is amused that she knows about half the women in Master Ladies, skates with one of the Masters Men (Ted), 6 out of the list in Gold Ladies, and all but one of the Gold Guys. (And skates with 3 of them on a regular basis too!!! ) I also skate with one of the Adult Pairs too!!!)

Also interesting is that Carl Nelson is ice dancing with Elizabeth this year!!! (How do they manage the distance factor??!?!?! )

Thanks Jazzpants! My axels were there on practice ice yesterday, so something worked!

I heard that one of the Ch. Masters Ladies is going to run the LA Marathon on Sunday. Wow, she must be one tough lady I know how I feel the day after competition and I wouldn't want to run a marathon.

I'm here Jazzpants! Thanks for the good luck wishes. Hopping in the shower now to get ready for an early event. Good luck to everyone this weekend!!!!
The ice was great yesterday afternoon. That's the last time I listen to grumblings from the kids.

Carl has been coming down from Alaska about once a month and they've been hooking up for an intensive two or so days to skate together. It's been interesting trying to skate with 4 dance couples all working on different dances on FS ice with three kids who are working on doubles and triples.. and little ol' me, fighting it out with BI 3turns and camel spins! Fortunately, those can be done in a corner away from the crowds. Also interesting is Molly Johnson just returned from two weeks in India... she and Kia practiced for the first time together again on Wednesday, one more session on Thursday, then headed to southern California Thursday night to prepare for competition.

Good luck to everyone at PCAS!!!

I figured 'We do it for the Standard Track events, why not for the adults?'
With that in mind, I went ahead and set up SPOILER threads for results from this weekend's competitions.

Please keep us informed - GOOD LUCK ALL!

ETA: Merged threads since no one objected to spoilers and congratulations!

The first three events are from memory, but I'm pretty sure they're correct:

Championship Masters Men
1. Bryan Rabin
2. Ted Gradman

Championship Masters Ladies
1. Natalie Shaby
2. Amber Van Wyk
3. Stephanie Ewing
4. Laurel Combs

Championship Gold Men
1. Nick Chou
2. Gilbert Chiang
3. Andy Schell
4. Randy Miguez

As for Championship Gold Ladies, I didn't stay for the results, and someone had taken them down this morning when I got there for practice ice! But this is what I heard from another person -- it is WAY unconfirmed:

1. Carolee Purdee
2. Ninotchka Aschow
3. Lauren Day (our very own DoubleToe -- yay!)
4. Judi Madey

I am soooooooooooo not positive about those last results, so take them with a grain of salt. I am positive about Lauren though.

Congrats, doubletoe!

OK, I'm confused. I thought the IJS was going to be used for Champ events at Sectionals.

No, only ANs. It was not voted on for Sectionals yet and there was no monetary grant for IJS.

Thank you, thank you, everybody!! I am SOOOOOOOO EXCITED!! I couldn't even sleep last night!! I never expected to qualify in Championship Gold, much less to come in as high as 3rd!

I still need to fix the axel setup (I landed it backward on one foot but apparently hopped out of it or something). Also, the double sal still isn't quite there, but hey, I landed it and just put a hand down instead of landing with my blade stuck in the ice and crumpling, so that's progress, right? LOL! I'm just so thrilled to have qualified, and if I can fix those problems and the other little messy spots in the next 5 weeks I'll be happy no matter how I place at Nationals!

Lauren (aka Doubletoe)
