Filip Taschler (born 29 August 1999) is a Czech ice dancer. With his sister and skating partner, Natálie Taschlerová, he is the 2020 Nebelhorn Trophy champion and 2022 Czech national champion.

On the junior level, he is the 2019 JGP USA bronze medalist, and has competed in the final segment at three World Junior Championships, their highest placement being fourteenth in 2019. Nationally, he is a three-time Czech national junior champion.[1]

Career[]

Early career[]

Taschler began learning to skate in 2004, and subsequently began learning ice dance alongside his sister Natálie following the end of his partnership with Karolína Karlíková. Taschlerová/Taschler made their international junior debut in the 2017–18 season, including two appearances on the ISU Junior Grand Prix, placing twelfth in Poland and thirteenth in Austria. After winning what would be the first of three Czech junior national titles, they made their first appearance at the World Junior Championships, where they finished eighteenth.[1]

Competing their second season on the Junior Grand Prix, Taschlerová/Taschler were thirteenth at JGP Lithuania and eleventh at their home JGP Czech Republic. They then won their first international junior medals competing at minor events, bronze at the Open d'Andorra and a silver at the junior category at the Inge Solar Memorial. Junior national champions for the second time, they finished the season placing fourteenth at the 2019 World Junior Championships.[1]

2019–2020 season[]

In the off-season, Taschlerová/Taschler began training part-time in the United States with Collin Brubaker and Oleg Epstein, in addition to longtime coach Matteo Zanni in Milan.[2] They returned to the Junior Grand Prix, competing first at 2019 JGP United States in Lake Placid, New York. In a significant improvement over their previous two years, they came fourth in the rhythm dance and then overtook Canadians Makita/Gunara in the free dance for the bronze medal.[3] They finished in fifth place at their second JGP in Croatia.[1]

Following the Junior Grand Prix, Taschlerová/Taschler elected to make their international senior debut, winning the silver medal at the Open d'Andorra and thereby obtaining the technical minimum qualifications to attend their first European Figure Skating Championships, where they finished in nineteenth position. They attended a third senior event, coming eighth at the Egna Trophy.[1]

Winning the Czech junior title for the third time, they were again their country's entry to the World Junior Championships. Taschlerová fell out of her twizzle at the beginning of the rhythm dance, landing them in nineteenth place in that segment.[4] They rose to sixteenth position following the free dance.[1] Taschlerová/Taschler had been assigned to make their senior World Championship debut at the 2020 World Championships in Montreal, but these were cancelled due to the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.[5]

2020–2021 season[]

Due to the pandemic, the siblings were unable to continue training in the United States under Epstein and Brubaker, and entered the season with only Zanni as their coach.[6] They began their first full senior season at the 2020 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, their first Challenger event, which due to the pandemic was attended only by European teams largely training in the area.[7] Taschlerová/Taschler won the gold medal.[8] They attended their second Egna Trophy, also winning gold there.[1]

To conclude the season, Taschlerová/Taschler competed at the 2021 World Championships in Stockholm, where they placed twenty-second in the rhythm dance, and did not advance to the free dance.[1] As a result, they did not qualify a berth for the Czech Republic at the coming Winter Olympics on the first of two opportunities to do so.[9]

2021–2022 season[]

Taschlerová/Taschler began the new season on the Challenger series, placing fifth with new personal bests at the 2021 CS Lombardia Trophy.[1] In continued pursuit of an Olympic spot, they were next assigned as the Czech entry to the 2021 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, the second and final opportunity for dancers to qualify to the Olympic Games. They were second in the rhythm dance with another new personal best, but dropped to fifth after the free dance due to a twizzle error, but their placement was sufficient to clinch the fourth of four available berths at the 2022 Winter Olympics.[10] Afterward, their federation formally named them to the Czech Olympic team.[11]

After winning the Pavel Roman Memorial and placing sixth at the 2021 CS Warsaw Cup, Taschlerová/Taschler won the Czech national title (finishing second overall at the ). They were assigned to the 2022 European Championships in Tallinn and finished eleventh, qualifying to the free dance for the first time.[1]

Taschlerová/Taschler began the 2022 Winter Olympics as the Czech entries in the rhythm dance segment of the Olympic team event. They placed sixth in the segment, securing five points for the Czech team. This was the highest Czech placement on day one of the event.[12] Ultimately the Czech team did not advance to the second stage of the competition and finished eighth overall.[13]
