Halloween Classic

Have the forms for the Halloween Classic competition been posted yet? I don't see them on the USFSA site.

Hi,
We were trying to get our "Trick or Treat" team back, but unfortunately it loos like all of us may not be doing the event. So we may need an axel team member, or combine with another group.
How are the other groups?

Who's planning on attending? Looks like a busy weekend for Adult Competitions - PA, OHIO, and now looks like Utah with the Intermountain Adult Competition in Salt Lake City:

http://saltlakefigureskating.com/mai...?page=comp.htm

plus of course Skate SF, which is a combined event with kids as well.

Well there sure are numerous options open for those who want to compete that weekend.

Coskater lent my team at the Peach her axel - that means she would be the perfect replacement for me on "Trick of Treat"!!

Just a thought,

Danielle

I sent my application off today--I'm doing Bronze FS and Bronze spins at Halloween (because this year there's no backspin--the spin, not the forum member--in the Bronze spins event).

A friend of mine will also be competing in Bronze FS. I'm preparing to be soundly trounced by her, as her jump content is much higher than mine. (I know it's not all about jumps, but I don't have a lutz, let alone the lutz-loop combo and other combos that she has.) But it will be great fun and I don't really care how I place. I met some of the adult skaters at the hosting club during their adult seminar, and they were all really supportive and friendly.

Starskate6.0, if you're reading this--are you competing at Halloween?

I'm coming up to watch-not to compete. Next year may be a different story! (Not sure whether it will be pre-bronze or bronze, but I'm thinking it will be as pre-bronze).

My coach wants me to wet my feet at some different competitions first and since my routine is no where near ready, that's ok. I can't wait to see some of you again!

I've never competed at the adult competition and don't think I'm up to it just yet, but I might come to watch (and I've never even watched an adult competition before, either!).

I'm in for pre-bronze free and pre-bronze compulsory moves. Well, I will be as soon as I send in my application! My coach choreographed the moves program today. I'm looking forward to it and renewing acquaintances and making new friends!

Hmmmm...............I'm thinkin' about coming up for the competition. Does a team need an extra member? I've been landing the Axel lately, but I can't make any promises that it will choose to hang around.
BTW, Peach ROCKED and I SO enjoyed seeing everyone! GREAT memories!
Hugs,
Becca

I think flo was looking for someone for a team who had an axel. I think she found someone, but you might check w/her to see if she needs a backup in case anyone on her team can't do it at the last minute.

I am sending off my entry very soon(I know before the 23rd!)! I am entering Bronze FreeSkate and Bronze Moves. I hope there is at least one other Bronze Man!

I am working on those spins....sit is getting there ....back spin sometimes

Should be fun to plow around for 1:40!

Hey, MSF, I'm signing up for Bronze Moves (you mean MIF, right?) too, along with Pre-Bronze Spins. Actually, I haven't completely decided yet - probably will on Thurs night.

I did Bronze MIF at New Year's and there was 1 man in the event, but he may not come to this comp b/c I think he was from NC or SC. Don't worry, we ladies don't bite!

Thats fine for the Bronze MIF, but if no other Bronze man enters the Freeskate the event will either refund my $ or ask me to skate up to silver?

We shall see.

IIRC, last year there were 2 or 3 bronze men and 7 silver men; so they'll fit you in somewhere.
In any event (literally and figuratively!), it should be a nice competition to debut your bronze program.

I think you can only skate up to Silver if you've passed Bronze FS. If you haven't yet, then you could skate Pre-Bronze, if there are skaters in that comp but not Bronze. I don't think you'll have a problem, though. There were several Bronze Men at New Year's, and there was a fairly sizable group of men at HC last year - I don't remember what levels they were, though. But I think you'll be fine. The comp seems to draw from all across the mid-Atlantic states up to New England.

But you have those wonderful jumps to save you on the Bronze FS event!!! (Which some of us would just LOVE to have...*sigh* )

In any case, you'll do just fine!!! And you will get enough people in the event for Bronze FS Men...just a hunch...

6 weeks, actually, since it's not on Halloween weekend.

I have my application all filled out to send in today: pre-bronze free, pre-bronze compulsory moves, pre-bronze/bronze maneuver team. Now I just have to get my act together!

I sent my form in last night: silver pairs, silver FS, and interpretive. Maybe I'll even get to do all three events this time!
