Best wishes to Tarah and Alexandria

I'm so sorry about the withdrawals, it's good to know that Tarah is being treated, I was worried about her, she did not look well after the skate. Wishing speedy recoveries for Tarah and Alexandria. We will miss you!

I JUST got home from grocery shopping eek.

But I did make sure to get plenty of junk food for my nerves today.

Okay, time to switch streams! I dearly hope there's a working stream...

Cain looks so tall in person, a tall team!

Once Liu/Johnson finally get consistent jumps, they'll be UP there.

I was worried for Tarah... Yesterday she seemed really dazed though she kept telling people she was fine. I'm glad she's getting some rest and treatment today!

The full screen button doesn't seem to work. Ah well, better than nothing.

 

[cathlen]

Okay, I'm here to watch and I expect great skates!

 

[Tastetherainbow]

Ouch, all red for the first three elements... hard fall on the throw loop too!

 

[Chemistry66]

Oh no, I missed the beginning of Deanna and Nate. Three red elements already? What happened?

 

[100yen]

S&B looking a little slow today... I think the mistakes at the beginning threw them off. Lovely lifts despite it all.

Yes can someone elaborate for those of us who were watching Katelyn Osmond

Crashy twist, hand down on 3S, hard and awkward fall on the throw loop, stepout on 3T combo

Tarah Kayne and Danny O'Shea, who withdrew from the 2017 U.S. Figure Skating Championships because of a concussion Kayne suffered in the short program, will not petition for a spot on the U.S. world team.

SD/B

Firebird program in black unitards- he has a bedazzled Aladdin vest over his and she has a bedazzle of fire-feathers going up her bodice. Struggling on... all the elements, really. But everything inbetween looks great! She has a wonderful smile.

Spirit Fingers in the final lift :handw:

 

[Princessroja]

Deanna and Nate!!!!

You know, that was a super messy program, and they're still scoring well. If they could just skate clean... and I don't think that's THAT impossible... they could score really, really well.

This is not at all unexpected. Concussions are not something to screw around with.
