2023 U.S. Nationals Sr. Pairs Short Program

[moonvine]

well, not everyone likes the current world champions. Just sayin'.

I would be there if it weren't for having to cross the Rockies to get there.

No, not everyone does. But I don’t think there are a lot more people here than there were for the juniors.

I don't know if I would want to skate to Gravity for a short program. Beautiful but heavy song. There were definitely some nice moments in there but the lift terrified me.

4 Grace Hanns/Danny Neudecker
Skating to Gravity In blue/ black. Very nice 3tw, she misses on 3T, hand down on 3Lo. Lift4 review. Nice combo spin 3. Ss2 and ds3 well done.

Most likely! I’m well caffeinated.

@moonvine Do you have any more stuffies?

 

[jgg220]

Very ambitious for a pair to take on the challenge of gravity, both the song and the physical force.

They mostly did an admirable job.

overall I am worried for American pairs. Junior pairs does not have a lot of teams either.

Fully 50% of the junior pairs wd

Two for today. One for Gracie and one for Ellie and Danny. Because they are sublime. And the most beautiful roses for Gracie. I took note of the variety, I might plant some this summer. “Queen Berry.”

Yes. One of the joys of watching early groups is to find the diamond in the rough, the rising star. The future, if you will.

Hope springs eternal, but I'm not finding what I'm looking for yet.

H/N. Good costumes and a good program.

Yeah you see him adjusting his feet, but it stayed up.

None for your World champs?

Yes, I was holding my breath on that lift.

Hmm I think the picture froze in my stream..

 

[CellarDweller]

olè!

Can you imagine if a pair or solo skater decided to fake everyone out with their costumes.

Like, come out in these costumes, but then skate to Riverdance? LOL

 

[Ichatdelune]

Is it my internet or has the stream frozen?
