http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/03/korea-breaks-ice.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Wednesday, March 08, 2006. Korea breaks the ice. Yu-na Kim was second at the 2005 Junior Worlds. At the 2006 Junior World Championships in Slovenia. With another Kim in the top ten. Is never far behind, and could surge ahead again at any time, with Christine Zukowski and Alisa Czisny solidly holding third and fourth as they head into Thursday's free skate. Will Mao go for that history-making quad flip?

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: She won't
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/03/she-wont.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Monday, March 13, 2006. Irina, skates off. Irina Slutskaya has now confirmed that she will not. Be competing in the upcoming World Championships in Calgary, which means that Sasha Cohen, as the clear star of a very strong US team, has virtually no competition if she skates her best. But how likely is that? In other events, Belbin and Agosto should twizzle away with the gold in dance. Of figure skating will take place...

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: But what would it be without the glitz?
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/02/but-what-would-it-be-without-glitz.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Saturday, February 18, 2006. But what would it be without the glitz? From the article: Maybe "Stephane. Lambiel is actually crying about. His tragic fashion sense." (Meow! Here's a great AP story about the costuming mayhem. A roller skating showmanship competition that used to be held in Bakersfield,CA, were better than the repulsively tasteless concoctions one is forced to see in the ice dancing competition. On Olym...

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: To point or to flex
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/03/to-point-or-to-flex.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Thursday, March 16, 2006. To point or to flex. Midori Ito: follow me! Ever since Midori Ito. Burst upon the international skating scene with her high wrap and incredible jumping powers over twenty years ago, I noticed something different about the way many Japanese skaters land their jumps. Now, not all of the Japanese skaters do it, but Shizuka Arakawa, Yukari Nakano. And Yuka Sato display the classic flexed foot la...

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: All over the Worlds
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/03/all-over-worlds.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Monday, March 27, 2006. All over the Worlds. Lambiel "brings it" to defend his title. I’m glad I taped most of the World Championships of Figure Skating. Because ESPN’s commercial breaks were grueling. Busy bee that I am, I recorded everything up to yesterday’s finals, and watched the whole ten hours of coverage in about three hours before switching over to go live for the ladies around 4:30 Pacific Time. The level o...

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: Kim lays it down
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/03/kim-lays-it-down.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Thursday, March 09, 2006. Kim lays it down. Yu-na: the new law of the ice. They said it couldn't be done. Who is they? Oh, I don't know, but there must have been lots of people who were saying that Yu-na Kim. To take the title of Junior World Champion away from the Japanese sensation. And when I say "resoundingly,". Posted by rob @ 4:44 PM. Comments: Post a Comment. Links to this post:. Rob Campbell, skating fan.

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: Twizzle me this!
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/02/twizzle-me-this.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Tuesday, February 21, 2006. Fusar Poli and Margaglio-. Personal drama over; fashion tragedy continues. To be interpreting: Les Mis. Phantom of the Opera. The Prince of Egypt. The costumes didn't get any better, either, most of them managing to be both boring and vulgar at the same time- quite a feat!

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Tuesday, February 28, 2006. Golden Girl of the East. Pastry chain Donut Plant NYC's cute 'n' tasty. Homage to Japan's current national hero. New submission to Webster's Dictionary:. Let the ceremonial sanctification begin:. I'm digging to find out how much people are forking out for these delicacies. I'm sure not a small few of them end up at the feet of statues in Buddhist shrines or in gravesite offering plates...

Dream of the Perfect Double Axel: Will she or won't she?
http://perfectdoubleaxel.blogspot.com/2006/03/will-she-or-wont-she.html
Dream of the Perfect Double Axel. An intimate documentation of the figure skating world. Saturday, March 11, 2006. Will she or won't she? Is Irina hungry for more gold? First, ABC reported that the entire Russian roster of Olympic medalists was pulling out of the World Championships (but without a direct quote from Slutskaya), and then I read that Irina Slutskaya had changed tack. And was going to perform in Calgary after all. Still, she hasn't officially entered the event. That triple loop this time!
