2021 Worlds: Pairs' Free Skate

[Ichatdelune]

Their costumes clash and that's not the most enthralling program out there, but kudos on not aborting that lift

 

[Lamente Ariane]

I really hope they don’t keep that program next season, can’t say I cared for the music at all. Just samey with no drive or build at all.

I will never be able to breath during their lifts - he needs to get some posture tips from Trennt. I do think the PCS here should beat the Italians though

 

[Seven Sisters]

Gosh, they look exhausted. But they got through it.

 

[LadyB]

I believe Matteo lost a family member before the first Gran Premio Italia competition, which is why they withdrew.

Yes, his mum.

This is how I understand it too. But, maybe I am wrong?

ahh that was wonderful! Blowers daughter good joob guys! Michael struggling on the second lift and having a oppsie at the end though...

 

[Fluture]

Their costumes make it look as if they were skating to two different programs. The song choices - beautiful though they might be - make me sleepy. Good effort from them, though, much better than the short and the jumps in particular were beautiful. Scary twists/lifts, however.

 

[Colonel Green]

KMT and Michael had made real improvements in their twist last season, but that seems to have been a casualty of the lockdown period, because they're still struggling with it now.

A few rough bits, but obviously much better than yesterday and overall respectable. With that job done, they can go back home and start preparing for next season and (hopefully) a more regular competition schedule.

 

[CellarDweller]

It's an old joke to be honest. I'd have to trace back where it comes from.

Also.. there is something about a magazine called Predator and Matteo that nearly caused a riot in a thread several years ago.

and I just came across that when I Google Image searched him. Yum!

What is a blower anyway??

Clarinet player.

 

[snowflake]

GO Miriam and Severin!

 

[LadyB]

Yes, did someone accidently leave a costume at home and have to borrow one? What is the thought process behind this?

That is exactly what I thought.

Thanks. This is what Jackie Wong says: Here's the rule for 2-/3-spot qual - my interp is that if you don't have 3 entries at Worlds, you automatically cannot qualify 3 entries into the FS; so if you have 2 at Worlds + you earn placement points for 3, the 3rd has to be qualified at Nebelhorn

 

[SnowWhite]

Way better than yesterday, so I'll take that too. And yes, the costumes do not match.

 

[GoneWithTheWind]

Go Miriam and Severin!

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

Go Miriam and Severin!!!!

 

[Supernovaimplosion]

Who is making these matching masks for Canadian ladies?

 

[Dreamer57]

I prefer MT/M's free from last season, hope they bring it back
Good save on the lift

 

[SaraM]

Kirsten is such a diva with her matching mask and water bottle!
