The Shibutani's programs are just terrible. Nothing interesting about them at all and that free dance is definitely a few steps back. The French team, The Russian team and that other Canadian team is going blow their doors off this year.

You've already stated your opinion on this...also mentioning Tessa's "weight gain" multiple times...I think you've made your opinion on the Canton teams very clear, my friend

C/B.. wow! Breathtaking couple! Love what I saw of both their programs...

He/she does not like the other two Canton teams, but love C/B....

I like the other canton teams, particularly the shibutani's, but I just HATE their programs... ughh

I saw elena Glebova's SP to "Angels and Demons" and have to say she looked great, she has worked on her technique and changing coaches has done her a lot of good, that was worth 60 points to me, brilliant elena keep it up

Tessa on the other hand has definitely picked up weight. She is starting to develop those 'Hottentot Venus' thighs.

The use of that epithet is disgusting. Look up its history and weep.

Moreover, the idea that Tessa is getting fat is absurd. She looks fabulous.

Ditto ! ..I'm not usually into feeding trolls, but since I have company...the person that comment reflects badly on is the person who used it.

Well said Spun Silver. Glad you spoke up.

I just came home from the competition.
I was rooting for Adrian Schultheiss and it was sad to see that he had a good warm-up but when the competition started he lost his jumps. When he fell his last jump and couldn't do the combo he seemed very frustrated and angry and sort of threw his hand in the air. I also saw him after the competition and he looked pissed. ...

Finally got around to watching video.
His short program:

Long program:

So happy he was able to redeem himself. I think he would have totally medalled if not for the short.
Go Adrian!!
