2021 Worlds: Pairs Short Program

Of course Alexa/Brandon could/should be somewhere around 69 to 72 with their ability. They're lucky the quality of their skating kept them at a reasonable score. Plus, there are some new teams and there'll be some jockeying for position during what is a transitional phase for pairs skating. It's hard to say how long Alexa/Brandon will remain in the lead. Of the next two groups, I would think maybe Walsh/Michaud and U.S. teammates Cain-G/LeDuc could challenge that 64.67 score. Only thing is that Walsh/Michaud have tended to be around high 50s, low 60s previously, and they don't have as high quality elements as Alexa/Brandon. But Walsh/Michaud are good competitors, so we'll see. Cain-G/LeDuc have a huge opportunity to be positioned above Alexa/Brandon if they hit everything.

No need to be too harsh toward Brandon @ancientpeas. It is what it is. Let's hope he gets all the angst out and can do better here on out.

K/F have a very good twist. The camera work didn't show a good angle of the height on their twist during their performance here.

The question is how long will they stay in the lead.
Brandon! Alexa did not stop skating with Chris when he lost the will to pair just so you could do a double. Get with the program.

It was a joke
 
Mae Berenice in the stands, with Kevin! Well, THAT is a good sign! I expected her to be in the hospital, after the way she left the ice. It was very scary.
In her insta story she's wearing a cast thingy
 
It was a joke
No, it's reasonable for you to be disappointed. I sure am. None of this is a joking matter IMO. But I hope Brandon can feel lighter about everything and not tied up in knots. He wouldn't have laughed at that being a joke. Skating is a tough sport, for sure.
 
Fedya is a busy boy tonight! I was hoping for that!!! :love: Thanks, skating gods.
I was thinking as the Croatians skated, this cannot be the way Fedor taught them to do it. Definitely not up to the standard he would expect of himself, or others
