2023 World Figure Skating Championships Pairs Free Skate

[GGFan]

I wish they could have gone clean but I'm so happy for M/K! After training half a world away all year it must be so satisfying to become world champs at home. Their unbridled joy is everything.

. . . please get them new choreographers for next year though

i am fine with KF claiming the first place for now, but that score is a bit high... I am not even worried much about the TES, but the PCS... it was a bit messy and one note.

well, Belinda/Mark speculated about 9s even

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Yep, I think M/K did enough, even with the 2S and the fall on the throw.

Thank you Riku and Ryuichi for the absolute joy your skating has brought and expressed this past season. Congrats!

9s is 72. they were just below that if I saw properly

 

[YuBluByMe]

Okay, whew. They should still have the gold.

 

[Seven Sisters]

TES lower than K/F, which surprises me

 

[Flying Feijoa]

Surely enough for 1st?
I would give them higher PCS than K/F definitely. I do like this programme and music for them (SP is another story)

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Oh, Riku thinks she lost it. Poor girl is in tears.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Don't cry, Riku, oh no.

(I hit shuffle until I got a 4ish minute song with a beat, so I have to say I enjoyed the program more when listening to Falling Away With You by Muse lol)

yes, all 8s.

Regardless of result, just glad everyone got through their programs without major incident. Still not quite over last year

 

[Flying Feijoa]

TES lower than K/F, which surprises me

A +/-5 GOE system gives lots of wiggle room

 

[invisiblespiral]

M/K gold!

 

[4everchan]

Bruno Marcotte, world champion maker

 

[labgoat]

Oh Riku don't cry. I think they did enough to win. I certainly hope so.

 

[Flying Feijoa]

YES!

 

[4everchan]

I am so happy for them !!!!!! soooo happy !

 

[bigsisjiejie]

Hopefully this will spark more interest in Japan in pairs skating!
