2025 European Championships Pairs SP

[flanker]

Hase/Volodin at least they fulfilled the expectations.

 

[EdgeCall]

Skated with a truly regal attitude. I think their flow has improved too. But I'm not sold on the positive GOE for the 3S and the spin was very out of sync. Should maybe lead, but not by much?

Minerva & Nikita had a very solid skate! She's a joy to watch in particular. They lost some potential +GOE points for their SBS spin clearly due to them getting out of sync. The triple twist & their throw were fantastic.

Fab, captivating skate from Minerva and Nikita with lovely extension.

My partner always says that Nikita looks like gigachad

Time violation

Time violation????

Ummmm, no emotion

Minerva Fabienne and Nikita had a great skate! Don't get the deduction though. I thought it was pretty perfect.

I agree, certainly not perfect. No one has been though, since the Brits

Welp, unfortunately it's past midnight here in my corner of the world down under, and I got pilates (+work) tomorrow morning.... so as much as I want to watch the women, I have to go to bed

That was a great Pairs SP, and awesome company here as always. See y'all tomorrow

Women is not starting for an hour? Not sure I will be able to hang out that long. But thank you for all the fun watching Pairs SP with you.

 

[skylark]

no, i'll pay attention now. where is she?

she's on the steps, in the stands. watch Rebecca/Filippo's spins, she's there the whole time. Maybe she's a figment of my imagination or a ghost!

 

[DemTuppesSeine]

I'll be back later for the women, don't know when exactly though. Definitely going to miss the first groups...life and stuff see you then!

 

[cocteautwin]

The Brits must be thrilled with their placement

I'm going to miss 2nd and probably 3rd group but will be there to see if Katia still cosplays a cactus...

 

[ladyjane]

See you later everybody. Probably tomorrow, I will be skating myself later, and women aren't really my thing anyway! But I hope to see you then.

There she is again! did anyone see the scary lady while Rebecca and Filippo did their SBS spins?

She looked like a 1905-era Russian priest.

no, i'll pay attention now. where is she?

I just wound back to check.

That's the TV camera!!!

But, granted, from a distance, it does look like Maleficent from "Snow White".

I guess you just confirmed it .... yes, Scary Lady was a figment of my imagination! (overactive, my mother often implied

I've just watched the performance of the Icelandic pair and I gotta say I was impressed, I had no idea that Iceland even has a team representing them, apparently it was their only 3rd international competition. They finished last in the SP and needed over 3 points more to make the FS cut but that was a good start. The odd error was in the SBS spins when clearly one of them mixed up the number of revolutions in one position and some levels were just lvl2 but side by side triple toe loops and the general quality of their skating was very nice.
