The 2013 to 2014 Olympic season towards the Sochi Olympics has begun, and we're seeing the program debuts of many Olympic figure skating hopefuls.

Last weekend, the Finlandia Trophy saw the 2014 Sochi Olympics programs of reigning Olympic ice dancers Scott Moir and Tessa Virtue.

This is the first time we are seeing their Free Dance, "The Seasons."

Not surprisingly, Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir took home the gold medal at this competition.

Meanwhile, several Russian youngsters have begun their quest to vie for the two 2014 Sochi Olympics spots available for the Russian ladies, including Julia Lipnitskaya and Elizaveta Tuktamysheva.

At the same event, Lipnitskaya debuted her 2014 programs, "Don't Walk Out When in Love" for the short program, and "Schindler's List" for the free program.

Lipnitskaya scored 191.31 over Elizaveta Tuktamysheva, who skated to "Gopher Mambo" for her short program and Malaguena for the free program and won the bronze (173.45).

The silver medalist was Japan sentimental favorite Akiko Suzuki (180.54), who will battle it out with figure skating rivals Mao Asada, Miki Ando, and Kanako Murakami for the three Sochi Olympics spots.

Meanwhile for the male figure skating competitors, Yuzuru Hanyu has debuted his 2014 Sochi Olympics programs, "Parisienne Walkways" for the short program and "Romeo and Juliet" for the free program.

Hanyu won the gold at Finlandia Trophy, scoring 265.59 over Russia's Artur Gachinski and Sergei Voronov.

And over at Japan Open 2013, Daisuke Takahashi has unveiled his Beatles medley for the free program.
