I’m here! Haven’t watched the women yet so if I could ask a big favor of no spoilers. I’d appreciate it so much.
Well... good luck with no spoilers but glad that you are here :)

I was just going to post about the women and well..

🤐 by chance I saw your post being quoted. A lot of people won't see it. Maybe stay far away from the competition threads if you don't want spoilers :).

PS. I wouldn't be surprised if the commentators talked about the women's short/free too

Start time for skaters warm up group one is 18:45???? Start time for event on world clock is 18:15? I must be tired.
 
Now there are bunch of girls skating dressed in blue and red baloons, rhey look like berries! And acrobats in the middle
Sidenote: Does anyone know when is the demonstration for Synchro 9? I assume during the gala?
 
I am here (or will be shortly). Due to time zone restraints, I can watch pairs SP and FP, dance FP, and women's FP. Those are perfect except I'd prefer men's FP to women's.

You are lucky. I cannot watch much other than Saturday's. I see bits of almost everything but never the first nor last flights.
