I don't think so. They always do a double and it looked like a planned double to me. She raised her hands to make a position variation, if she was planning a triple, she had to wrap her arms around her body to help the faster rotation...

Well, it's alright and rather normal for a pair skater I guess. I just mean it concerning flexibility, throughout the years it really gets worse, especially with the men.

Meagan and Craig are so consistent! Great job, and I'm so happy for them!
I really liked their program, and I was like "oohhh ok just the thow jump now, carefull!" and it was really good.
This link is working for me; its playing in Windows Media Player right now. Thanks Gold for the link!
Its nice to see so many people showing up for the pairs - looks as if Staples is pretty full tonight. It was a beautiful day in LA today - about 75 and clear as a bell. Looks like we will have great weather all week.

Thanks for the pbp. None of the feeds I was able to find are working for me.

I really liked M/B, they are so fast. But every chance they might have had at a medal seems to be gone now. The top couples are capable of scoring even 10 points more than D/B, who already got 8 points more than M/B.
Even Kemp / King got more on tech - I guess the Triple Salchow was downgraded then.

Rockne said in their pre-Worlds teleconference that he's been having trouble on his jumps while Keauna has been pretty consistent. You jinxed her!!
The short program has not been their friend this season, for the most part.
It's okay, still a decent score considering.

Neither has the LP to be quite honest.
Medal hopes??? They are debuting at worlds. Aren't the expectations way too high for them? They will have a lot of good years ahead of them. Medal at the first outing is rarity.
Ehh, true. But not many pairs skate clean longs. However, several of them will skate clean shorts, and that's the problem.

DARN IT! those stupid salchows. I think that Rockne is more likely to show nerves because of his age..at 16 she is just happy to be there. They are way behind. very small chance of making the top 5 even.

Agree with youthey have lots of potential. I'm surprise because they are very young, and still they seem musical, not stiff or awkward at all. I don't think they have been together that long, but definitely a must watch in the future. The chinese usually have lots of problems with the SBS spins, but they held it very well, only at the end. The Spiral sequence was nice, he has good flexibility I think.

MB did really well for their first outings. I'm really impressed with their speed and attacks. They look much better live. Let's not be so down on them guys.
