2026 Olympics: Pairs' Short Program

[LazyFuzai]

Very mid from them today

Sara/Niccolo. Nice outfits and program. A nice skate.

She steps out of throw. Lift was slow and a bit rough...

This team deserves High PCS because this really is probably the best short program of the year choreographically. Remains to be seen how it will be marked. To me they look quite a bit slower unless confident than usual. They should get serious negative GOE on those side by side spins. Like, at least -1.

To me, that was a 70 or 71 Point short program. That should not go ahead of the canadians, but I highly suspect it will.

 

[EdgeCall]

Ouch, they lost more points than I thought.

I don't care who she is and what she has done, but her endless mentions of it now makes me expect that Berulava will drop Metelkina and bad things will happen. I need her to stop doing it.

So you would prefer that she doesn't mention anything and that he doesn't fix his footwork and drops her anyway ?

 

[Artemisa]

I. Am. So. Tired. Of. Bolero

If you are speaking of the Italian team .. isn't a bolero .. it's a paso doble ( the georgia team is a bolero .. )

 

[BlissfulSynergy]

Metelkina/ Berulava overscored, as usual!!!!

 

[auser]

Really enjoyed CONTI Sara / MACII Niccolo's lively performance.

 

[RatedPG]

The Italians were shaky!!
I think Lia & Trentt will be in the final flight
To me, the Italians might not even be in the second last flight. I thought the Chinese were better

 

[cocteautwin]

Not bad but it was messy here and there, some level issues, spin was a bit off, not a perfect landing on sal from Sara. They weren't as sharp as in the fisrt part of the season but it's understandable considering her injury.

Tara saying that C/M’s scores are coming in and are low, which may slot them into 5th or 6th. She may be underestimating their PCS though.

 

[Blades of Passion]

Italians also underperform, darn.

Sui/Han medaling is still possible now. Other teams are giving them room.

 

[Demandred]

Great save on the throw by Sara. But the step out on the SBS and the lost levels on the lift and the spin will hurt them.

 

[LazyFuzai]

Easily its not

 

[freedomlover]

yup, 34 in PCS. Was fair

So you would prefer that she doesn't mention anything and that he doesn't fix his footwork and drops her anyway ?

I don't think her mentioning it during Olympic commentary 20 times is helping to correct his footwork. If she is this sure, Slusarenko is right there. If things did go badly, then sure, go ahead and comment on the replay. That's what Tran'kov does.

 

[FlossieH]

Not quite. They are split into groups and then each half group based on WR, then the draw gets done for each half group.

 

[museksk8r]

C/M 71.70 into 6th.

 

[Ichatdelune]

Ouch, but congratulations P/M

 

[cheerknithanson]

Holy moly.
