2014 ISU World Synchronised Skating Championships

Sound is back. Good job from Team Japan! I admit I don't know to much about this type of skating but I like it and I am willing to learn.
Crowd is wild horns and all!

I'd love to learn, too! I wish we could summon a synchro fairy here to teach us some basics

We have a synchro reference file!

Ditto!

Sweden 1 leading, had a fall… took a long time for her to get back in place 68.46

Russia 2, 'Smooth Criminal'…. first team I've seen wearing trousers… great performance 66.23

Third place, Sweden 2, 61.31

Six teams to go...

Yay Finland! I really like Marigolds short "African voque". Nexxice was techically good, but the program itself feel little empty... Really interested how Russia will skate!

I loved the US team!!!

I really liked Russian team 1. Really want them to get on the podium.
Finland 1 was technically really nice, but the programm itself left me cold. I like their FP though.

I enjoyed the Canadians 1, Nexxice, a lot, good music choice

Oh, Russia 1 was really disappointed in K&C... sad for them.

I've said it before , but I'm truly amazed at the many girls/ladies Finland has with excellent skating skills. Like, they could have had three teams here as medal contenders.

It will be an exciting final:

Finland 1 76.14
Finland 2 74.98
Canada 1 74.85
Russia 1 73.83
US 1 68.66
Sweden 1 68.46

Victory Ceremony

Wow - thanks for posting all these videos Finnstep. Amazing!

Thanks so much for posting videos! I'm extremely grateful.

Anyone have any info on the details of the illegal element performed by Team Russia 1/Paradise?
I've been pulling for them to podium the last few years and they're so close! Their programs are so beautiful.

Also, if I read the rules correctly, I think USA still has 2 spots for next year, but they barely retained them. Kind of shocking on Haydenettes low placement this year, but I've always thought they've been propped up a bit.

I really like Canada 2 - Les Supremes, they have interesting programs and unique choreography.

Nexxice is great too, so interesting that all the girls must have gotten their hair cut to be the same length. I know when I skated, we used to temporarily dye our hair dark so we'd all match, but luckily that looks like it has gone out of favor. One poor girl on my team had beautiful very light blonde hair and it took her days to get the black dye out. (Sorry for rambling, just had to reminisce a bit there, lol).

Thank you Finnstep!!

The pairs lift (2 couples) in their Creative Element rotated more than 3.5 revs (the maximum allowed in synchro). Both lifts went around like 5 times, so it was deemed illegal. It's a shame it wasn't caught earlier in the season since it was the same earlier on, but the illegality of it must have been missed.
