Pairs LP

Medusa · Feb 5, 2009

Already started.

Taiwanese skaters finished.

1 SUNYOTO-YANG A / SULINDRO-YANG D TPE 83.35 44.87 38.48 5.05 4.55 4.80 5.00 4.65 0.00 #1

The baby-Chinese were quite good. Unfortunate fall on the second throw though. But solid sbs jumps, 3-2 Toe-combo, 3 Salchows. On a shallow note, I prefer her bodytype over the Pang/Zhang/Kawaguchi-bodytype. This girl has the Shen-bodytype...

1 DONG Huibo / WU Yiming CHN 90.93 49.85 42.08 5.75 5.00 5.20 5.25 5.10 1.00 #2
2 SUNYOTO-YANG A / SULINDRO-YANG D TPE 83.35 44.87 38.48 5.05 4.55 4.80 5.00 4.65 0.00 #1

The guys from Uzbekistan: she wears purple and he red? whose idea was that?

The pair from TPE wins my award for best music choice!! I <3 Chronicles of Narnia.

Baby Chinese IMO were zzzzz, but technically very good.

^^ i guess it somehow makes sense because they were skating to nutcracker?

Brodeur & Matattal

lift with nice exit
3t fall for him
3(?) twist
they try to be lyrical
throw 3l turnout
sbs camels to sit spins to catch foot change sit
pair spins simple
star lift a little stumble(?) in the end
2a-2t nice
straight line steps with a lot of direction changes but slow I think
spiral to throw 3s nice
ouch! exit from lift
death spiral with a change of hold
finish before music

a nice try overall, but nothing special

Medusa · Feb 5, 2009

I think it was a 2-twist. A shaky double twist.

6 points more on PCS than the Chinese? That's so not true.

dgel · Feb 5, 2009

It was a triple twist for sure. Last lift was scary- her leg hit him in the head on the way up, put everything off balance, 149.85 1st overall seasons best total

mystichaze · Feb 5, 2009

BRODEUR Mylene / MATTATALL John

he fell on sbs triple she stumbled on landing
she stumbled on landing of throw
nice sbs 2axel-2toes
nice throw 3sal/loop?
she fell out of last lift

they performed this program better at nationals.

94.69
149.85 total 1st

Alex · Feb 5, 2009

149.85 for the Canadians and 1st place so far.. But it is a long way to go

Inoue and Baldwin (wow, 32 and 35 and still skating.. good for them I guess)

both in black with a little red

3t he definitely doubled, maybe she too
steps to 2twist with arms above the head
2a to 2a ok
camels to sit to upright to change catch foot
throw 3s big and nice
outside death spiral with him turning his back to her (sorry for my non-technical vocabulary)
throw 3l nasty fall
very basic lift ok
another one, this time more interesting (sorry for not being able to recognise the groups)
pair spins ok
music goes more intense for straight line steps, maybe they are a little tired though
lasso lift (I think) with a nice exit straight to end of the program!

They will probably be 1st by now, but no chance of a medal or something...

gold12345 · Feb 5, 2009

Rena and John... he 2T she fell on throw 3L. They only did a 2 twist today.

the rest looked okay.

amateur · Feb 5, 2009

Brodeur/Mattatall, CAN

i thought they were not doing to try the triple axel anymore??

gold12345 · Feb 5, 2009

Caydee and Jeremy have landed everything. their consistency is pretty crazy.

Spins were sort of slow and her position in the lifts is not so good, but good for them for nailing all the tough stuff.

I'm pretty sure it was a throw triple loop that she fell on.

They don't - it was a triple loop. Great skate- clean from Barrett & Denny
