Man-Zhang appears to have hurt his left shoulder, possibly during that last lift that looked a bit off.

Quite good technically the Zhangs, but no magic.
The Zhangs really have plateaued as skaters. I dont see the passion in them anymore either. They are still skating well and consistent technically but even their tricks dont stand out anymore as teams like Mukhortova & Trankov can do everything better. I am wondering if they even want to still be skating or the Chinese fed. is pushing them to. If that is the case it is very unfortunate.
Has Aliona's skate come loose? I see a lace flopping around.
do skaters still get dinged for not having theri laces tied?

A very solid skate... the pressure is on the Russians now!
Unless I missed something, S/S just pulled off that LP flawlessly (on the jumps at least). Brilliant! I think I caught some changes that quite improved the piece, too. Also, now more than ever, I can't wait to go see Pina in 3D.
Oh my gosh, I was afraid she'd hurt hurself.
Apart from that, they came out and devoured the ice. Splendid job. They believe in that program. They skated like World Champions! Some unison problems but apart from that everything was great.
Awesome skate by S/S. Glad to see they've gotten their feet under them this season after a couple rough competitions. I hope they win it.
Russian commentator said: I don’t know if there is anything that could be better than this program. And he’s recommending to watch the movie![]()
Boy was she lucky it was the left skate that came loose, otherwise landing things would've been difficult. Awesome program.

Score: 142.44, new SB, total 212.24, new SB and into 1st
It was good seeing them doing no bigger mistake. 212 points... nice.
I haven't even seen Pina yet and I already recognize various moves they translated from the film to their program.
