I hate to say it, but I’m getting tired of Papadakis and Cizeron—not that I prefer Sinitsina and Katsalapov. I like Stepanova and Bukin, and I’m glad that Fear and Gibson are moving up in the ranks.
I’m kind of obsessed now with Zoe Jones and Christopher Boyadji, the UK pairs champs. He’s 29, she’s 40–a former singles skater who didn’t qualify for the Nagano Olympics because of injury. She had a hard fall in yesterday’s free skate but got right back up.
