2023-24 Russian Grand Prix - Stage 2 - Omsk

[LadyB]

WTF fluke catch!!!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

No they almost had that twist

 

[EdgeCall]

Ouch. What an unfortunate landing.

 

[elektra blue]

surprise fall i was sure they had it

 

[chooey]

OMG!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Yulia and Lyosha please keep it together

 

[yume]

It does it a bit more often than that, but still 'storm face' is more his trademark.

Btw, he's a really lovely and friendly bloke outside the limelight.

Yeah he seems nice.

 

[Pairluv]

Ouch. Glad he held on to her. That could have been a disaster. Good for both of them to keep their composure. Trankov always says the job of the man in pair skating is to protect the woman.

 

[yume]

The throw 3lo was a beauty.

 

[AlexBreeze]

A pity about the fluke fall.

But why they have 2A+3S planned. They had 3S+3S last season.

 

[yume]

I need a facepalm reaction emoji

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Rocky start but they recovered nicely
I’m so upset about that quad twist they so had it

 

[katymay]

An arguement to be made that the fall came after the split/twist? And not part of the element itself?

 

[EdgeCall]

After the botched throw landing they were understandably tentative, but they do have the kind of chemistry the song needs. When skated with full power the program will be a smasher.

What is the "landing" in the twist? Is it when the man catch the woman or when her skates touch the ice?

 

[LadyB]

Privyet, Pavel!
Leszha looks still like a little boy. So cute

 

[yume]

Do they need to replay that twist that much?

 

[LadyB]

Now, M/G show your metal!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Do they need to replay that twist that much?

I guess it’s due to it being a quad twist.

 

[yume]

10/10 on costumes for M/G this season.
