Pairs - Long Program

[kiz_4Ever]

happy for the 2 spots for Italy next year

sad for K/S, their FP is amazing...

and, beautiful Y/C, it was the first time I saw that program and I really like it a lot, then they skated very well

This american team have a great look!!

 

[Dodhiyel]

...and there they go, into second.

 

[kensal]

Sad swan song for K/S.

Very good for Yankowksas Coughlin. 6th place at their first worlds, best result for american pairs since 2006! and seeded for next season's Grand Prix .

The four pairs in the last group were great, but too bad Takahashi & Tran had so many problems with their jumps. Kavaguti & Smirnov's long program is beautiful. I loved their performance.

yeah, i hope they keep improving and getting good programs. They have a nice speed and elegance and chemestry...best of the lucj to them

US hopes for a 3rd spot are gone but if Y/C drop then Canada could get their 3rd entry for next year..

Thankfully, that didn't happen. Yay, Caitlin and John!

Yay for Y/C. This should be very encouraging for them on the gp circuit.

 

[hybfc]

what is the rule for 3 spots?

Yeah, I was rooting for the three spots, but after a minute of their performance, I basically stopped.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

what is the rule for 3 spots?

Top two competitors placements = 13 (1 + 12, 2 + 11, etc).

 

[Tesla]

Yay for Y/C. This should be very encouraging for them on the gp circuit.

I hope they keep improving. US needs a great pair!

I hated that aerial shot of the death spiral of S&S. The whole point of a death spiral is getting down lowwww, and you can't see that from an aerial shot. I sort of stopped watching S&S after that, have to get back into the groove.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Robin and Aliona LAID IT DOWN.

 

[L'amour]

How I hate S/S costumes...not flatering at all

 

[jan]

Where is the standing ovation? Absolutely ridiculous!!

 

[skatingfan04]

I love the germans, and they had an awesome skate, but what is up with that program? The music cuts are so random, and choreo is just weird. Not to mention how distracting the costumes are. Still, they're technique is divine.

Aliona and Robin are SO RELIABLE. Awesome job

Aliona & Robin were great!
