2026 U.S. Nationals Senior Pairs Short Program

[Jumping_Bean]

Hello? Landed sbs jumps and throw? Are the pairs realising they want to go to the Olympics after all?

 

[labgoat]

Max is really an amazing partner - unreal strength

 

[momrk]

I am so, so happy for them!!!! They did great!!!! Clean skate!!!!

 

[CellarDweller]

Really well done by Val & Max!

 

[skylark]

Really enjoyed that from Valentina and Max. This is an amazing pairs comp for us.

Also much improved from the start of the season, even more than Audrey and Balazs. Still think they should have taken the same path as their teammates, Naomi and Lachlan, but I can't complain about this skate.

I noticed tape on one of Luke's fingers, so that has to be playing a role in their struggles.

And a resurface.

 

[SmileHappy34]

Yes. VAlentina and Fernandez skaye well.
Like the Magenta shade as well. Let's hope the skate well rest of teams and in free skate.

Great job

I wish Gracie was commentating. She seemed to know more about pairs.

My Queen is the best at everything.

For our guests,

There are two threads one for practice videos and another for junior level events (weird music copyright distortion, but video is good) for the juniors. Both can be found here...Jean-Luc Baker with either Jackie Wong or Gracie Gold - all were very nice and had interesting things to say. They are not geoblocked.

I had the Browns dancing in my head when I heard that music.

so did I. It is now a permanent fixture in my brain and one of my favorite programs of theirs.

They were advertising an interview with her ahead of the Olympics, it's not live from the arena (I'm on the Japanese feed too).

Is she the commentator on the JSports feed!?

I just jumped into that stream right at resurfacing, but it's great that I can rewind the stream at least
