2021 Golden Spin of Zagreb: Pairs Free Skate

[coldblueeyes]

Not sure, his arms didn't go down did they?

Seemed a bit shaky from S/B. Maybe they were nervous? To me they seem to excel when the pressure is off.

It’s definitely different to skate as the top team. I guess it’s experience missing.

I wonder if this win from L\M might throw a wrench
in who we assumed would be the US Olympic team

I just wish Alexa could vary her expression, with the plastered-on smile often augmented by the slash of red lipstick she favors. She always looks so brash and brassy, like she's doing a Broadway show stopper number, no matter what the theme/mood of the program is. They could relate to each other more, too. Shame about the little bobbles and the weird fall. They should be the strongest US pair by far. So much talent.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

I am again startled by how low the scores went but this may have helped some predictions....

 

[coldblueeyes]

Very good victory for L/M here. Ten point above the second American pair.

Wow, congrats to Audrey and Misha! Nationals will be very interesting.

 

[ManyCairns]

Wow, a surprise win by L/M! Good for them.

 

[elektra blue]

see you tomorrow folks! love you all

It sure will if we see a repeat of anything like this at US Nationals!

And there have been, shall we say, poorly skated Pairs events at Nationals before. Yes, I am looking at you, Mrs Knierim

Pavel S is very unhappy. They really threw a way golden chance to win.

O dear they have really dropped. A big loss to their Georgian teammates, could be their Olympic chance gone.

Who called L/M as the winners, well done to them . Russians on the podium.

We’re J/R best for PCS, I find very underwhelming and disappointing. More like 2 singles skaters but they are definitely Canadian number 1’s now.

Pavel has stormed off, did he pick that up in Team Eteri?

 

[ucrgirl]

This certainly makes the US pairs Olympic race even more interesting

Especially the race for the team event.

 

[Dreamer57]

Just wanted to say I hope Team Georgia gets two pairs spots for worlds next year!
Also new PB for Golubeva/Giotopoulos Moore! I hope somebody puts their performances online

 

[LadyB]

Wow, yeah! That was interesting in its own little way. Congrats to all the winners. Totally happy for L/M and A/N still made it to the podium. Sad for CaJo, but the US Nats are going to be very interesting.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

i scored 20

I got 45, mainly because of 4th and 5th place

You should be happy with that. If 1st placed team after the short from Georgia didn't have this free and have finished 1st or 2nd overall, it would have been a lot of zeros or fives in our prediction's score list

I am sure Alexa would be eager and able to amend if good explanation would be given to her

Wow, a surprise win by L/M! Good for them.

..the unpredictability is the best thing in the figure skating

It is. But I got 15 points in the predictions.

See you tomorrow! Sweet dreams/great afternoon/have a great day!
