Didn't get a chance to watch.

Have D/W changed their exhibition number? I hope so.

Love them, but that exhibition number was really unmemorable at GPF.

I like Polina okay, but she's still a real junior skater when it comes to choreography and presentation. I did not like her musical hodge-podge exhibition number...every time one bit of music ended I thought "Please let this be over!...and then ANOTHER bit of music would begin! :no:

They did have a closing banquet, I believe. Here are a few photos:

Not related to the banquet, but Polina Edmunds posted this very nice photo of her and Jason at the end of the Gala: http://instagram.com/p/jTIgGVEjT0/
As I'd said elsewhere it was one of my favorite moments -- the two young ones holding the flag, excited to represent Team USA!

Thanks for the photo links, Mrs. P.
(Duh, I had forgotten that I already had seen the photo of Jason and Polina at the banquet. When I saw it before, it made me smile because Jason looks rather spiffy in his suit.)

Wish that Lipinksi et al. had given both sides of the Shibutani story: that Alex relies on Maia just as much as the other way around. Alex often gives Maia credit for her maturity and unwavering support for him.

OTOH, a pat on the back for NBC for another bit of color:
At the time of Max's gala skate, I was pleased that Maddie Aaron and Max Settlage got a mention (by Gannon, IIRC) for winning the junior pairs gold in Boston.​

I thought that was nice, too! :)

Has anyone seen any videos of the gala go up online yet? I completely missed the gala and goofed on setting my dvr!

Speaking of Maddie Aaron (who I think has a background in gymnastics??):
Unrelated to Nationals, but today @jasonbskates posted some Instagram video of himself on a balance beam with Maddie.

Others have posted links earlier in this thread.

And here is a hot-off-the-press #ShibSibs video of the presentation of the Olympic team at the gala:

Does anyone know if Tara is having health issues. I don't want to start any rumors but her face looked bloated as if she were on medications.

Thank you so much samson. I totally forgot to watch the exhibitions until they were over. Would like to see Ashley Wagner's exhibition. I have been looking all over with no luck. Hope you or someone else can find a couple more. Thanks again. ladybug

We haven't played back the gala yet, but I would like to know if they showed Nathan Chen, Gigi & Luca Becker (our Novice Dance champs).

Any idea when IN will finally have the gala up on their website? NBC has already shown it on TV so there is no reason to not put it up now.

On TV, they did not.

In reality, I would hope they followed same format as usual and showed at least the Junior and Novice champions.
