3STh - nice dance lift entry
Li

Very strong skate, fist pump from both. Only one minor mistake

Huge scores, could they be OG medal contenders as high as silver?

That was a wonderful performance from Kirsten and Dylan. I was holding my breath because often she two-foots a throw or two, but nope! :) Dylan's bobble on the one jump was very minor.

Do you guys think Trankov's shirt flying all the way up and revealing his torso is a +GOE element?

Being in Michigan, I get CBET (the Windsor, Ontario CBC affiliate) and apparently they're showing the Men's Free and the Free Dance right now instead of the pairs, live, when they have one of the top pairs contenders at the event.

Weird.

That is weird, which is why I'm not watching it lol. Apparently they're showing the ladies and pairs free skates NEXT weekend (I guess because CTV/TSN have the rights to Skate Canada, but still odd).

Wow that was great by the Russians. Fabulous program. Such line and elegance. I love the Aliona and Robin but Im not sure they can take the olympics against this great program.

Great skate from V/T.

And it looks like the men's single skaters aren't the only ones with bad haircuts. Maxim's gets the gold medal for utter awfulness.
