Oh no, are we going to have to send you to rehab for caffeine pills?

Let's wait until the Men's Free. Dark chocolate in the meantime.

Just noticed something that I hadn't noticed before.

That's a very Communist era coat of arms on the Belarussian jackets!

Okay now I miss Kavaguti/Smirnov even more after they did that transition.

Deep Breathe

A literal death spiral! The place must be packed with Japanese fans for there to be so much applause for that terrible performance.

 

[Violet Bliss]

The death spiral! And then now what?! A disastrous skate.

 

[Layback11]

Oof, weird death spiral mishap.

 

[glorybox6]

oof, the Japanese pair here to remind us how nerve-racking watching lower-level pairs frequently can be...

I mean, at least the lift got up?

 

[WeakAnkles]

Just tuned in to see the Japanese. That was a hot mess. LOVED the music though. I'm a huge fan of pre-bop jazz vocals. Really choreographers, there are singers other than Louis Armstrong. Just saying...

 

[tulosai]

A literal death spiral! The place must be packed with Japanese fans for there to be so much applause for that terrible performance.

I think the crowd just saw they were struggling and decided to be kind.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Well, this is one Canadian that is not going to go to be joining his compatriots at the top of the table.

This is a train wreck of a performance.

Such a pity. Better luck next time.
