Robin and Sue!
That's why I prefer BBC.
Tara talks too much during performance

Oh no! Brian is wearing see-through costume
No niples, please.

 

[TMC]

Is Sue Barker the commentating partner of Robin Cousins on the BBC? If so, I think she's VERY good.

Yes! I was v. surprised at how good she is - after all, she is a tennis player! She's better at identifying stuff than many former skaters

May the OBM Hunger Games begin...

 

[Olympia]

I'm crossing fingers too! This is the big one! Oh, Dai, I hope you skate clean and splendidly.

 

[Rikku]

May the OBM Hunger Games begin...

May the odds be ever in their favor

 

[dress]

so far so good

 

[ericka141]

Some solid, solid jumps so far.

 

[amusedstranger]

So it begins.

 

[ARipp42014]

Ah Denis!

 

[rollerblade]

I really really like Denis' arm position going into jumps. He doesn't have those what I'd call "lazy-arms" that are so common with the men.

Very good skate, could push for bronze if some others falter. He looks very pleased. Some stupid mistakes in the end, though, which may become the difference

FS: 88.90+82.14 = 171.04 (SB), 255.10 (SB), in 1st (out of 13)

 

[SGrand]

Denis is killing it!
In jumps anyway.
oops, touchdown on triple and step out of double axel.

 

[NoNameFace]

just saw that Daisuke has 2 quads planned...and I'm going to get a heavy heart attack during his performance

 

[Florencito]

Denis goes clean! Only mistake a hand down on something in the middle, but the rest was great!

 

[WeakAnkles]

Redemption skate for TennisDenis. Ran out of steam at the end, but that's going to put pressure on every one else.

OMG! that will be stressfull to watch

Denis

 

[blue_idealist]

Oh wow, I had previously heard that Dai was only planning one! I guess he really wants that medal again!

 

[text_skate]

What a skate, Denis! :agree: I hope the jugdes will remember it when the first group is up. What a pity that he had to go first.

 

[LongTimeLurker]

Very nice skate for Denis! Love the quality of his jumps.
