2017 U.S. Nationals Championship Pairs FS

[Giselle]

I don't think I've ever seen Castelli/Tran both land their SBS jumps in the same program, like ever.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Can they get a new choreographer next season, please?

This could be a great program if it was ever skated to its potential. As it was, they were very tentative in the last third when the music was building. Even aside from the mistakes, it killed what could have been a strong last impression for the audience and judges

 

[tulosai]

Good Luck Ashley and Tim! We are rooting for you

 

[sunnystars]

I miss Sci/Kni's quad twist

 

[Plisskin]

And tonight, Marissa lands her jumps but Mervin doesn't. Lol, U.S. pairs and the SBS jumps is their Achilles heel.

 

[NicolettaL]

Gooooooooooo Ashley and Tim!!!

 

[Jammers]

anyone got a live stream?

 

[Lissy]

Ashley's dress is awful.

 

[Princessroja]

So... messy from Mervin and Melissa, but seven points higher than last year's nationals score for them so... progress?

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Too much talking commentators. Way too much.

Get used to it. NBC decided that's what their audience wants, so that's what we get

 

[sunnystars]

OMG it's the white lacey version of Maria's Baiul-inspired pink dress

 

[sunnystars]

Get used to it. NBC decided that's what their audience wants, so that's what we get

where is John Coughlin when we need them?

That is a cool pairs jump combo. 2A-1Lo-3S.

And then Ashley falls on the throw 3Lz. Damn.

 

[100yen]

Are we gonna get a clean program at all?

 

[Lissy]

Yeah they are not allowed to break up or get hurt. They are delightful.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

This song. Ugh.

Now it's my turn to say this.

Ashley's dress reminds me of Tatiana's wedding dress and, while I support a bride's right to wear anything that makes her feel beautiful... it's not my favorite look.

 

[Chemistry66]

Are we gonna get a clean program at all?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

lol

 

[rollerblade]

Why did Cain drop singles for pairs?

Leduc has some rather admirable flexbility.

 

[Lissy]

Out of all the music in the world, this is what they chose to skate to?

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Are we gonna get a clean program at all?

Do you watch US pairs often...?
