Oh dear, D/L ... did their relationship sour or what? All the magic of this program left. She fell on the first throw ... he hesitated before picking her up. It looks like she put on a few pounds that don't help their lifts - or else the costume is really unflattering.

ETA: Oops - D/C... I thought Loughlin, sorry.

Darn, my computer crashed during C&D's lovely skate. *sigh*

I just wanted to say that I'm now officially in love with this pair. :) Seriously, my first glimpse of them at Skate America shocked & surprised me, I think they are perfect for each other (though initially I was hesistant b/c I didn't like the circumstances of the breakup with their old partners, especially his), but I love everything about them, their connection, music, programs, et al.

Bravo despite the mistakes! :cool:

She hardly ever looks happy imo. K/S best score was about 139 so I guess maybe she's expecting something near that.

Did the Eurosport commentator purposely make a snide remark about Coughlin's Yankowskas dump? It's nice when partners stay together for a long time, or whatever he said. ;)

I usually cut some slack to these new kids.

Delilah should fix the positions on that ending lift of Denney/Coughlin's ASAP, because ending the program with such an eyesore can only leave a bad impression on the judges.

Italian pair seemed to do a good job, though I'm not a fan, they don't move me one way or the other, but looks like they'll probably get a good score despite some mishaps here & there.

good job :)

I think Mr. Puccini might have objected to that :biggrin:

I love K/S's Claire de Lune, and I wish the judges would go with that a bit more. Their programs this year are so much better than V/T's.

Nice to see B/H so pleased!

I like this young Japanese pair team better than the Italians, but I'm not sure they'll be able to beat them here, it'll be close though. :)

I love T/T - such great cohesion. Their lifts are the best in the comp. Spins are great too. Yeah, some little jump problems. Not too bad though.

I'm pretty sure the judges will give it to the Japanese pair. They always get some generous marks with messy performance.
