Figure skating competition
2006 U.S. Figure Skating Championships Type: National Championship Date: January 7 – 15 Season: 2005–06 Location: St. Louis, Missouri Venue: Savvis Center Champions Men's singles: Johnny Weir Ladies' singles: Sasha Cohen Pairs: Rena Inoue / John Baldwin Ice dance: Tanith Belbin / Benjamin Agosto Previous: 2005 U.S. Championships Next: 2007 U.S. Championships
The 2006 U.S. Figure Skating Championships took place between January 7 and 15, 2006 at the Savvis Center in St. Louis, Missouri. Skaters competed in four disciplines – men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dancing – across three levels: senior, junior, and novice. Medals were awarded in four colors: gold (first), silver (second), bronze (third), and pewter (fourth).
The event was used to determine the U.S. teams for the 2006 Winter Olympics, the 2006 World Championships , the 2006 Four Continents Championships , and the 2006 World Junior Championships .
Competition notes This was the first time the ISU Judging System was used at the U.S. Championships.[ 1] [ 2] Novice ice dancing teams Madison Hubbell / Keiffer Hubbell and Cathy Reed / Chris Reed tied in the first novice compulsory dance. The tie was broken by the technical elements score and so the Hubbells won that segment of the competition.[ 3] Junior men's silver medalist Jonathan Trinh was not placed on the World Junior Championships team because he was not age-eligible.
