Ice dance RD press conference at #4ContsFigure ✨
How was today's performance!

#MadisonChock/#EvanBates - A wonderful time skating, much joy in their hearts and performance. They felt free and it was a pleasure skating in front of a home crowd
#LaurenceFournierBeaudry/#NikolajSoerensen - A great time! The crowd was very helpful with their cheers. They felt in the moment

#MarjorieLajoie/#ZacharyLagha - They were happy! The music was low but the crowd was loud which was great
There were four falls out of fifteen couples. How do you feel about the ice?

#MadisonChock/#EvanBates - We felt grounded. Didn't notice anything other than the crowd reaction when backstage. The last time that happened was the Torino Olympics.
Hopefully everyone will recuperate with the day off!
#LaurenceFournierBeaudry/#NikolajSoerensen - Madi summed it up perfectly! the ice was great!
Would you be as successful is the Canadians weren't pushing you

Having the chance to train with their competitors is really beneficial! It's an inspiring work environment and we always enjoyed the rivalry and working on being the best on any given day.
The quick turn around from Nationals... How was it like coping with that!

#MadisonChock/#EvanBates - It was quick! One week between Nationals and here. We came straight here to adjust instead of flying back and forth. We enjoyed it here and we're familiar with this location.
It was fun training here as we have lots of good memories. We're happy we came early.

#LaurenceFournierBeaudry/#NikolajSoerensen - We have a good three weeks of training before coming here. We worked on our stamina.
We are used to doing many competitions on a season and competing internationally is always fun!
#MarjorieLajoie/#ZacharyLagha - After Nationals, we mostly maintained what alwe already had. We worked on increasing stamina. Training was a bit brutal but after skating today, we're happy about it. It's our last competition this season so we gave it our all.
With the coaches based in Montreal so how did #MadisonChock/#EvanBates train in Colorado Springs?

Patch stayed! They trained with the other USA teams and it was lots of fun!
And to end it, here's a special hug between Madi and Lolo 🫂

#BoyangJin on his physical condition: I tried my best. In practice even doing one jump felt really bad…just to be doing all the jumps and putting all my effort into them I think is already pretty good. In practice yesterday, I told Brian and Tracy I don’t want to do any jumps.
“Yesterday I didn’t do any jumps [in my runthrough], I only did two triples because I felt just so bad. This morning’s practice too-I gave every last bit of strength I had just doing two jumps and my body felt very bad. Same as when I got onto the ice during my 6 minute warm up.”
“I gave up every bit of energy in my body. Yesterday I felt a little bit uneasy mentally, and I thought maybe I should withdraw.”

Mens FS press conference #4ContsFigure ✨ Image
How did it feel performing today and what it's like medalling?

#KaoMiura - He's happy! Today was amazing. Before I went on the ice Keegan put such an amazing program and the energy of the rink from that made me skate well.
I was pleased with my components and I had the right speed and paced myself well.

#JimmyMa 🇺🇸: It was absolutely horrid. I didn't trust my body or my legs. I second-guessed myself at every turn. My back - it's ongoing and it's something I want to get fixed up first. All we could do this week was bandaid it and honestly looking back, it didn't hurt as much as I Image
thought it was going to, like in the practice or warm-up. So I just need to trust my body a bit more. I think I was too focused on what could have been and what I needed to do.
It's a really great feeling when the crowd is behind you. Two of my best friends are out in the crowd. It's good to know that whatever you do, they still love and support you. I want to make you guys proud. Today wasn't it but I'm gonna have a lot more changes to do that

#LiamKapeikis 🇺🇸: I was very happy with the 4S at the start. That was something I was hoping to do today. But overall today was very rough, definitely not pleased with how I went. But I think I will learn more from these failures more than I would have from a perfect skate. Image
I think the altitude definitely plays into it but, for me, I'm not 100% sure what was going on. I felt quite good but sometimes it just doesn't go your way. That's why I feel like I need to go over it to figure out what went wrong.
In the past few weeks, I've been able to start learning the 4T and I'm hoping to add that in next season. I did one in practice a couple of days ago. I'm hoping to have 2-3 quads in my FS next year

#SihyeongLee 🇰🇷: I feel very tired and I almost died at the end of the program. (laughter) Before the FS, I was concerned about the cardio, not the jumps. I just thought "Just finish the program, just keep breathing in and out." I didn't worry about the jumps at all. Image
My choreographer recommended the music for the SP and FS to me this year. I like the music, the costume and the choreography.
There's a lot of energy, the fans here cheering for me. I was kind of surprised that there are a lot of fans cheering for me here. That really makes me happy and thanks to that, I finished the program well.

#4ContsFigure Pairs Press Conference
#RikuMiura/#RyuichiKihara: We were quite nervous coming into the comp due to the altitude, but despite the small misses, they were so happy that they were able to win the gold medal.
#EmilyChan: It was a really special moment for us to be able to go out there and connect the way we did. We're both very happy to be able to put it together and have confidence in each other and ourselves today
