Oh dear, how does Mary Beth, who has a singles background, miss the 2Axel? She's going to be kicking herself for that big time!

It's not the first time this year :( I think Rockne missed it during US nationals actually.

I like MBM's position in the DS. Usually that type just looks like a mistake, in the same way as Yu Na's broken leg camel, a spin I loathe except in very rare cases.

Lots of mistakes but a lovable team.

Merry Bath and Rockne were off. Very shaky lifts at the end on Rockne's part, then there's the fall on the SBS 2a, the SBS spins that were way off, and the two-foot on the throw 3sal. Nothing too costly on their own, but it all adds up.

AW MB looks so happy with the score/placement. It is very easy to like her.

Their tech content I think in the end was much higher even with the fall. B/H doubled two jumps and I don't think their lifts were level 4 but I will need to see the protocols.

This program by K/S can be beautifully mesmerizing. I hope they bring it today.

That skate from Mary Beth and Rockne will pretty much solidify their hopes of a top 10 placement as they had a pretty substantial lead over Dube/Wolfe after the SP. Good for them!

oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh K/S what was up with the lift??????????

Yuko KAVAGUTI / Alexander SMIRNOV (RUS)

11th after SP

3T - nice
3FTw - crashy (as usual)
3STh
BiDs - nice and low
FCCoSp - good unison
ChSp
2A+2A+SEQ - she twofoots last jump
3LoTh - nice
Li - aborts lift before she gets up, what was wrong?
Li
Li - difficult on one leg
PCoSp

They should be able to move up, but that lift mistake will cost them...
