2023 Skate Canada Pairs Short Program

[Ares]

Roscher/Schuster had easier elements and some technical issues. I hated the song.

 

[CellarDweller]

We still have six to go... don't jinx 'em

 

[fishing]

Oh my god this In The Air Tonight cover

Exactly what I was thinking too! Wow….

 

[4everchan]

finally made it...

 

[moonvine]

Noooo dreadful cover.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Speaking of awful covers...

 

[lileychristie]

Exactly what I was thinking too! Wow….

I think we should have a list for the worst covers each season.... This one will be a strong contender

......and as I typed that oh my god another one. What is this Another One Bites The Dust

Good morning from North Europe, 5.11 local time and did not need to wait for alarm. My inside clock told me there is something to watch and I notice I have missed only two pairs, the Germans were skating when I opened TV. Seems she had a bad fall, I missed it. Hope she is ok Are the skaters not allowed to take care of that kind of thing on Kiss and cry?

 

[CellarDweller]

why would someone do this to Queen?

 

[TallyT]

Another classic song bites the cover dust Okay, Freddie's just joined in, so my ears can stop bleeding.

 

[lileychristie]

Ok they salvaged my ears from complete bleeding by putting the original Freddie's vocal at least

 

[purplecat]

Wow, another great program - so clean! I agree the music choice was questionable there in the beginning.

Maria PAVLOVA / Alexei SVIATCHENKO
Another One Bites the Dust by Queen

3Tw4
3T
3FTh
3Li4
StSq3
FiDs4
CCoSp4 (quite out of sync)

SP: 62.22 SB (2nd)

I'm not sure what waiter Alexei has to do with Queen . Also we've had some really bad covers today, which feels fitting for an event in Canada. A great skate from these two though!

 

[Weathergal]

Pavlova / Sviatchenko had a good skate, but I don't understand their costumes - how does a bodysuit go with a vest and tie?

 

[Dawn825]

The pairs field is ramping up! Worlds is gonna be a fight.

Good morning. I haven’t seen a fall. But one might have happened while I was typing.

 

[RatedPG]

I'm not sure why I didn't include them in my predictions, but knowing I didn't pick them...I'm sure they'll medal now. LOL

Yup. Like Kristen mentioned, they just don’t miss in practice and that translates to competition.

I’m not sure if this is better than the Italians, but, the free skate, where there are more jumps, is where the Hungarians shine. They were underscored at Worlds. Something tells me they will make the GP Finals this year.

 

[4everchan]

this was excellent.. and dull

 

[RatedPG]

this was excellent.. and dull

Agreed. They are missing that spark

 

[Ares]

Why did that throw 3Lo get -1.25 right off the bat? I thought it looked great

That landing was double-footed, it looked very good from the distance though.
