The marks were announced and I now (sitting in my proper seat) can't see the board well enough to copy down the tec & tcs scores. I just get what is announced.
The following notes are what I saw while the skater was on the ice and have not been checked against the protocol for mistakes. I didn't get here in time for the 1st 2 groups - I only had 2 choices of shuttles this morning - 7:30am or 11:00am and since there were only practises until the dance started at 10:30am I wasn't about to get here for 8:00am
The official results & detailed skater's protocols are posted on the Skate Canada website
