Two big mistakes, let's hope they're not overscored again...

 

[gioccia]

OMG! That was scary...

 

[Elisheba]

MY feed is too choppy, what just happened?

 

[evangeline]

REALLY curious to see how the judges are going to mark this...

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Okay, so when Trankov was preparing the second throw, he lost his balance and fell. She nearly stepped on him. Caused a huge break in the choreography. She won't get a fall deduction and she stayed on her feet (never left the ice, so no element(, but he obviously will.

I predict 133

 

[adamanna]

Where on earth do they get their mistakes all the time?? I have never seen a man's fall on a throw before

 

[machin]

The competition should go to B/L (or event P/T for that matter). Too bad S/S aren't there to kick their butt.
But PCS will give them the gold...

 

[LRK]

I really wonder what they were saying - anyone speak Russian?

131

Utter bollocks.

I remember Zhao of Shen/Zhao once fell on a throw before, but that was AFTER he threw Shen (who managed to land the throw).

Trankov looked like he just randomly caught an edge or something.....

Volosozhar/Trankov
131.09, total 204.55 and GOLD

It's becoming annoying watching them win with all these mistakes, I've gotta say. They barely lost the FS

 

[evangeline]

V/T get the highest PE score of the night for that performance.....okay.....

131

Utter bollocks.

I agree. I can't believe it!!

 

[machin]

HAHA... Exactly what I said. This is delirious. Twice in a row the judges give them chan-like marks. Do some people still think they won't win in Sotchi 2014 whatever happen there ?

 

[Kinga]

I dont like neither the SP nor the LP from V/T. Why cannot they get a decent program? Something original but not cheesy that would showcase their positions, lines, her delicacy and maturity?

 

[adamanna]

I really wonder what they were saying - anyone speak Russian?

you mean atheletes? Max said: "I don't understand WHY", and later Tanya said "Well, here's the whole package, now we can relax and enjoy", that's all I heard

 

[gioccia]

I guess Trankov said smth like... I dunno how it happened... The commentator was doubtful that they would get high marks, was surprised, said the judges were gracious... There was so much tension in the air during their skating,,,I really felt he would fall and smth else bad would happen. I don't agree with their nd BL scoring

 

[Icey]

That was a shocker

 

[HR4]

I really wonder what they were saying - anyone speak Russian?

When he went out of the rink he was constantly saying that he has no idea why it is happening, and was really angry with himself.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

I really hope Buttercup doesn't see these marks.
