Kirsten Moore-Towers/Dylan Moscovitch CAN - triple twist, side-by-side triple toe (Moscovitch step out), throw triple loop - love this program and great choice to bring it back for one more season - TES 37.46, PCS 31.06, SP SCORE 68.52

Tarah Kayne/Daniel O'Shea USA - triple twist, side-by-side triple salchow (best sbs so far!), throw triple loop (hangs on) - I liked this team last year during the smaller competitions, lookin good! - TES 34.77, PCS 25.54, SP SCORE 60.31
Andrea Davidovich/Evgeni Krasnopolsky ISR - triple twist (rough catch, caught on landing, two-foot), side-by-side triple toe (Davidovich downgrade), throw triple salchow (hangs on) - TES 25.24, PCS 18.46, SP SCORE 43.70
Marissa Castelli/Simon Shnapir USA - triple twist (just a bit tight on the catch but big), side-by-side triple salchow (Shnapir fall), throw triple salchow - potentially good program, seems a bit new in terms of synchronization for them right now - TES 35.04, PCS 27.86, FALL -1.00, SP SCORE 62.26
Caydee Denney/John Coughlin USA - triple twist (big as always), side-by-side triple toe (a bit off-sync, Denney possibly underrotated, hand down), throw triple lutz (hand down) - nice return, not perfect but definitely feeling even more power and flow than before - TES 34.04, PCS 27.62, SP SCORE 61.66
Felicia Zhang/Nathan Bartholomay USA - triple twist, side-by-side triple toe (Bartholomay fall), throw triple lutz (fall) - definite improvements as a pair, too bad about the falls, great solid lift late in the short - TES 29.93, PCS 21.80, FALLS -2.00, SP SCORE 49.73

Moore-Towers and Moscovitch: nice split 3 twist. Best ice coverage of the group. He turned out of 3 toe. She looks really solid and confident. Huge throw 3 loop. Strong skate and a lot of confidence; at this point, Duhamel and Radford's short is stronger.

Lawrence and Swiegers: He fell on the sbs 3 toe. Nice positions on lift. Fun program. Throw lutz as last element, foot down on landing and leaning in the air. 59.3. 4th.

O'Shea and Kayne: Obsessed with her dress. Holy sparkles. Nice split 3 twist. Sbs 3 sals. Held on to landing of throw 3 loop. James Bond. He's in a tux. She does a really good job selling it. Footwork lasts a really long time; program dies a bit at the end. Throw would have been more dynamic later in the program. Overall, strong skate. 60.31. 3rd. Should have been higher.

Krasnapolsky and Davidovich: collided on split 3 twist catch, she 2-footed and underrotated sbs 3 toes, huge throw sal. Lots of toe scratching. Nice lift. Lack edge quality and speed. Throw was strongest element. 43.70. 4th.
