This event is going to make or break either Vanessa/Morgan's or Alexa/Chris' season. Both teams havent had the best start to the season so far so they need to prove to the judges what they are capable of.

For the French, watch for the twist
For the Americans, watch for their SBS Sals and Throw Jump.

Just a wee reminder that Eurosport's coverage of the Trophée Éric Bompard will start in about 10 minutes with the Pairs Short.

Just be warned, British Eurosport 2 is NOT showing any LIVE skating today. Instead, it is showing Tennis all afternoon, and then showing highlights of all 4 sets of Shorts this evening.

Eurosport 2 International, on the other hand, will be showing the Pairs SP LIVE, with highlights of the Men and Dance in the evening.

Here is a link:

Eurosport 2 International livestream

I'm not going to bother with watching a stream of the Pairs SP. I'm just going to stay with the Warsaw Cup stream I've been watching all day. And then catch the TEB highlights on the TV, supplemented by YouTube videos, this evening.

Hope this helps

The Warsaw Cup is currently on a resurfacing, so I just put on the TEB stream.

Now I see what you guys have been complaining about the past few weeks with it being out of sync!

Like, the sound went to a break about 2 minutes before the pictures did! :eek: That is absolutely rediculous!!!

I'm DEFINITELY away back to Poland!

Sorry for posting these links the past few weeks without checking what they were like.

Kirsten looks so disappointed. They still have a long way to go. That was an interesting entry to the lift. Appeared it was aborted partway through? Kirsten sporting quite the wedgie.

It's ok CaroLiza. There have been times where other streams (usually Russian) have gone out and at least I've been able to read the forum whilst listening to the audio of the ESP stream & understand what they're saying:yes:

I wonder if any of the teams who made partner switches are having any regrets? Obviously starting with a new partner means a lot of rebuilding and they (and we) know that going in. But still... Curious.

Wang/Wang seem to have a bright future. So nice to see Zhao at the boards.

I'm not up to date with pairs's splits but let me take a wild guess that people who make that decision probably couldn't stand working with each other any more and a new partner with a lot of rebuilding and struggles still sound more bearable :confused2:

Z/K: That heart on his butt cracks me up. Most of these catch foot lift positions would be a whole lot less cringeworthy if the women were wearing a unitard.
