On Site Reports @ Worlds 2016

OMG there are 3 Romeos and Juliets going back to back to back in pairs group 2 :gaah:

I never want to hear any version of this, Feeling Good, and I Put A Spell On You ever again. This is ridiculous :curse:
 
Peng was having some jump problems today including falling on the first throw jump. Hongbo looks like he was not having any of it. Poor Peng :slink:

Yikes. Romeo & Juliet has definitely been IT music this year. I wonder what'll be next season?

2016-17: ?
2015-16: Romeo & Juliet
2014-15: Phantom of the Opera
2013-14: Les Miserables

She's just going to have to grow guts of steel and make those jumps happen, like sui. The chinese pairs system is totally unforgiving, it seems
 
:( I hope they don't go for the Quad Sal here!

I think this is the least of their problems :(

Stolbova/Klimov had a good run through. He did mess up his 3t sequence and the slit twist still looks short on rotation.

Chris had a couple of jump problems in the corner.

Kristen/Michael were solid.

Sui/Han are rock solid on their elements.

Meagan/Eric had a solid run through other than the quad throw fall.

Aliona/Bruno music is still awful.
 
Thanks for the reports. I wonder if it would be better for s/k to do a quality 2tw instead of a crashy triple- or would they lose too many points?

Thanks a lot for these practice reports! Do you happen to remember how Lubov & Dylan did?
 
Aliona/Bruno has super fast spin in perfect unison until the last position. And their side by side jumps are very consistent.

There is a cluster of fans trying to get autographs after practice. I wonder if security going to come and chase them off like yesterday (they were sitting on the steps). This was before Hanyu/Javier/Chan practice was over. So after practice, down came the stampede. The security guard did a total "oh hell no", jumped over the railings and chase them off :laugh: OMG so funny :rofl:

Almost as funny as Stolbova digging things out of Buyanova's eyes, that I got pictures of :laugh:

She had some jump problems. Pop the sal I believe and her 2t at the end of her combo was <<(step out). Throws and lifts are good.
 
Pairs practice was great! The last group all did well. Sui and Han did a quad throw right in front of me and I kinda fangirled :laugh: makes me wonder if they'll try it in competition...
 
So Youn skating to R&J :noshake: I mean when Evita sounds fresh and exciting :slink:

I swear those liquor stands better be open. 1pm is not too early.

And she totally just messed up her 3 jump combo and fell on 2a/3t.

did i tell you that i was jealous of you? doesnt matter, i will say it again :biggrin: btw, they said they will try it
 
Chartrand's jumps look underrotated. The lutz/toe looked </<<, flip was most definitely << in her run through. Just fell on 3l/3t<< (not even close on rotation).

I think the pressure of being national champion is getting to her. I still think people are going to crucify her. Thanks for the update. Hopefully she can loosen up a bit and gain some ground.
 
I never would have guess Da Bin was skating to Les Miserables with that dress. She had a clean run through.

:hpull:
They had one fall but one successful throw quad so I hope it goes well in the FS. I'll be holding my breath the entire time!!
