Lloyd Jones: An International Figure Skater

Early Career in Great Britain

Lloyd Jones began his skating journey in Great Britain, where he emerged as a promising young talent. He claimed two national junior championships but struggled to achieve significant success on the international circuit.

Partnership with Danielle Bennett

Jones's aspirations shifted when he teamed up with fellow Briton Danielle Bennett. The duo shared an impressive national title but failed to translate their domestic success to the global stage.

Move to France and Partnership with Pernelle Carron

Following the dissolution of his partnership with Bennett, Jones embarked on a new chapter in his skating career. He relocated to Lyon, France, and joined forces with French skater Pernelle Carron. The pair opted to represent France, and Jones dedicated himself to training under the guidance of renowned coaches Muriel Boucher-Zazoui and Romain Haguenauer at CSGL Lyon.

Reign as French National Champions

In their very first season together, Jones and Carron seized the French national title in the absence of seasoned competitors. This triumph earned them a spot on the French team for the European Championships, where they finished 12th.

Career Highlights

Throughout their partnership, Jones and Carron enjoyed several notable achievements:

- 2010: French National Champions

- 2011: 9th place in ISU World Rankings
- 2013: Winter Universiade Champions in Italy
