The gold went for the right team! It's Team Unique's first gold ever and they've worked so hard for so many years to reach the podium. I'm so happy for them!

[demarinis5]

Congratulations to Team Finland, Team Canada and Team USA, well done!

I did so hope the Haydenettes could have managed a silver, 4 bronzes in a row has to be both good & bad for them; still I thought Team Unique definitely deserved their win!

I'd like to knw what anyone else thought of Marigold Unity's program to "Chess" You'd think that a program in synchronized skating based on Chess music, with great chess references would work, but it doesn't. Part of the problem is the music from"chess" is fairly annoying, but the concept is so fetching, I wonder whether a different selection of cuts could make this program work?
