2026 Olympics Team Event: Pairs' Free Skate

[Skating91]

Judges always strict with M/B

 

[museksk8r]

Now the real test for M/K. Can they get through a FS without errors in a pressure situation?

Rikuryus lifts look like perfection compared.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Even with a flawless program

They didn't have big mistakes but it wasn't flawless.

 

[Seven Sisters]

It’s a Gladiator kind of day

Sandra pointing out that though they are representing georgia, they still train in Russia by russians, lol. But I think that PCS they should be below all of the teams who have skated so far. The other teams just gave you this impression of control, whereas the Georgians felt like they were a step away from disaster through a lot of the program, and they also lacked any sense of connection.

Sandra commenting on how she is such an astounding amazing skater, but ripping him apart and criticizing the choreography so much, lol.

I find them way overrated and way overscored, esp. Luka.

What is the deduction? Time?

could be time or lack of control on the knee

Of course they say not a word about the Japanese. Because the Japanese are a marvel and can't do no wrong.

The Japanese really aren't selling it for me in this program as I find they have in the past and as they do in the short program. Looked nervous at the beginning. Side by side triple toe double axle double axle sequence was clean despite him being a bit forward, but they had half the rink between them - more so than normal. And just in general I'm not feeling the passion in this program. And they are one of my favorites.

But they have being clean so far. Still, just not the same Vibe they normally give off

RIKURYUUUUU

Will not be unhappy if they win gold. they stuck out this quad, and in everything together, they are the best team

 

[Ichatdelune]

WOWZA

His 3T was just barely saved but WOWZA

 

[lariko]

What was that, a perfect lift? Why silent now, biddies?

 

[elektra blue]

 

[GGFan]

Wonderful speed and ice coverage by M/K. Not my favorite program of theirs but they look to be in form and ready to win that gold medal in the individual event.

 

[Sabsi]

Give them all the points

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Wow! Go Japan!

 

[EdgeCall]

That should be enough.

For what remains to be seen.

 

[discodisco]

Question I love how they're ending position just one-ups Trennt and Lia - holding her above his head rather than just on the shoulders, lol. I think Trennt can do it, as he has arms size of a semi truck.

Of course they're nervous lmao.

Even when its an unrealistic team gold, there was a (edit: Japanese) media storm that started after Yuma beat Ilia in the short.
