48.9, they can still come back in the free and make the podium.

I think it's just Back and Mahoney who aren't realistically in contention for the podium. I'm looking forwards to the free.

So I tried the all-dressed chips... coming from an American point of view, they remind me of a tangier, less sweet version of barbecue-flavored chips. This is an improvement over typical barbecue-flavored chips (and they're sort of addictive), but I don't see myself buying another bag anytime soon because I don't like barbecue-flavored chips very much.

 

[FlossieH]

What on earth are all dressed chips? Chips soaked in bbq sauce and something else?

 

[saine]

All dressed chips are a flavour of crisp only found in Canada. I like them once in a while, but not all the time. They can have a strong flavour.

Yes, they're typically found only in Canada. The chips I just ate are a combination of barbecue, salt and vinegar, and sour cream and onion flavors. It is indeed a strong flavor (although I barely taste the sour cream and onion part). As I mentioned earlier, I probably won't be eating them again anytime soon, but they're certainly worth a try if you like a strong barbecue flavor.

Ah. Crisps not chips! You follow the US with that. I like chips (not crisps) with gravy - I think that's very much a Northern English thing. They are very warming when you are out on a cold day.

Those are three flavours I really would not put together! I think I'll stick to Walkers smokey bacon crisps, or prawn cocktail ones if I want the extra sweetness.

You're so close to poutine

Prawn cocktail ones?!? That's definitely not a flavor we see here...and now I want to try them!

You're so close to poutine

Poutine>all dressed chips for sure

They may represent Ontario now, but Skate Canada still recognize Ava and Yoni being from Manitoba.

They announced them as Canadian Junior record holders from Manitoba.

Just a few strokes is enough to see the major difference in level between the first two teams

They've been announcing the record holders before each event. I've got mixed feelings about it since I've seen someone who is really obsessed over one of the records not being broken.

They're fun to know and it's nice when there's a new one. But some people can take it too far.

Simon looked really fast in that last lift.

Well done for Julia and Simon, I really like their free

 

[4everchan]

Julia and Simon were very solid. Crowd loved itt. People throw .. ... It is nice to feel that so many friends and family members can attend something like Nationals. It really is a different mood from worlds or gp

I don't care about records in skating. Rule changes are making some harder to beat

My faves all on the ice at the same time. Marly are here finallyyyyyyy. So happy they're back. And first time seeing Ava and yoni. Gosh I love skating

 

[Jumping_Bean]

Clean Marly! Woot

Really nice from Martina and Charly . Last lift looked a little shaky, but it's their first competition of the season.
