Is that good news for Seguin/Bilodeau?

the noise of Dylan crashing was kinda horrible

Pop AND splat

Sorry I can't watch, steam is in slideshow mode. How do you pop AND splat? Reason for pop is so you don't splat.

 

[sunnystars]

This program is Such. A. Dud. They deserve better.

I was expecting a bit more from Bezic too...

One popped and one splatted.

Lubov popped and Dylan crashed

*sigh* *sigh* :hopelessness: I hate this program. And yes Grobin not Buble. I think I tried to blank it out.

 

[Krunchii]

Please don't let PCS edge out Peng/Jin

 

[Nathan13]

So heartbreaking for them. They looked tight even in the warm up though. They knew what was at stake.

 

[TGee]

Seems as though whatever they are doing in training to get their SBS jumps together (which Tracy Wilson said was the issue during Skate Canada coverage) now has Dylan's jumps unstuck...

 

[Crossover]

yeah Yu/Zhang won the gold here

And Peng/Jin won the silver. I wonder I/M can win a medal....with this much messier performance here than at Skate Canada.

 

[daphenaxa]

justice for Wangs tbh

 

[daphenaxa]

oh

 

[ancientpeas]

That was bad. But Dylan is right. They do look nice in their outfits.

 

[Crossover]

hwell: This is not just right.

 

[CanadianSkaterGuy]

Wangs should have been ahead of I/M and given the SP gift to I/M it should have arguably been a Chinese sweep. I/M still had better skates than SC though and there was no way they would win (needed a personal best). Silver and the GPF though was in reach.

Hah it's gonna be so odd/awkward to see the partner swapped pairs on the podium.

 

[TGee]

Lee just said "it was tight" a couple of times while trying to find the good in it....

All of them trying to fight back the emotion through a long wait for the scores.

Clearly, they are not satisfied with that kind of FS performance and score... No joy with that bronze....

But am glad that they will take that will to do better forward...
