Very unfortunate fall by Soloviev on the transitional element, losing about five seconds of choreography and transitions, but at the very least it wasn't on the footwork sequence which would have cost them about eight points. However, I think the footwork sequence right after will be graded as a level 2 at best because the fall really rocked him.

It's official now, C/L are the new Fusar-Poli Margaglio, without Fusar-Poli talent. Will they win Euro as beautifully as they elder did in 2001 ?
Their mark are the biggest joke I've seen since Belbin Agosto on an Olys podium.

thats really harsh.
skaters dont give themselves marks. unlike Margaglio - Luca does eqaul emount of work as Anna.

Wow, a big fall from Soloviev. He's look absolutely devastated. At least they still kept ahead of Ilinykh/Katsalapov.

It seems Bobrova/Soloviev always have errors at the most important international competitions, like Worlds and GPF.

Lol, Virtue/Moir did their twizzles at the tempo of "Work, Work!"

I know. And that says a lot. So much to that theory which flooded GS this year that I/K are the best team in Russia.

Nice one.:rolleye: Managed to slam 6 skaters for the price of two. None of them French of course.

Putin is watching! Wedged in between Tarasova and Cinquanta... How much politicking is going on RIGHT now, I wonder?

Wow ... was that Putin? Has he been in the stands for other GPF/JGPF events?? This is my first opportunity to watch the live stream.

ETA:
Thx, sequins -- we were posting at the same time, and I wasn't sure if I was hallucinating, LOL.​

Don't mind the idea of skating to the Rolling Stones, but the music cuts and way this FD is structured didn't grab me.

The more I watch P/B's free dance, the more I like it. It's starting to gel more, grabbing the highs and lows of the Rolling Stones medley they selected. I think both their step sequences will be graded at least Lvl3, which will put in them in good stead.

Total 101.48.

Maybe Putin's presence stressed Soloviev ;)

I think I will never warm to P/B... A good routine, but.. Just boring to me.

Anna & Luca beat Nathalie & Fabian on TES in the FD. This result has to be so encouraging for their confidence. So happy for them! :)

slight problems in V&M dance. That last lift (choreo lift) - they had problems getting in the position.
It seemed to me there were problems with twizzles by Tessa. Not sure because the camera position was changing.

Virtue / Moir

The timing of their second step sequence to the music has improved and some of Moir's conflict with Carmen is showing through more. I still think that last lift was dodgy but it's only a choreo lift. Still, they might want to find something else to end the program with.

Total 108.56
