And she is in tears in the Kiss and Cry after a 96 pt skate....She is barely holding on....She is a trooper, and I love her.

Is it just me or did Nikita look angry at the end of the performance? He did a hand gesture, but I missed if it was in triumph or anger.

Absolutely beautiful Twizzle section from Shibutani's. Absolutely divine, as well as the preceding hold.

Wow HUGE crowd reaction for the Shibs. I suspect that this will go into second but I <3 these two, gorgeous twizzles and lifts.

LOVED that program. But I have no idea how that will score....95.79 is a tall order for an FD score given this is their second outing with it...

One thing that I think the Shibs could work on is the spin. I feel it could be smoother and more graceful

Is it just me or does anyone else also think the Shibutani should seriously consider competing for Japan instead? The Reeds are going no where and if Davis/White don't retire after Sochi, the Shibutani needs a powerful federation who can push them, which is important in Ice Dance. Notice how two Russian teams are moving upward this year? Sochi is near and Russia cannot go in without teams in contention. I predict they will fall behind the Russians here.

Well, considering what I/K got, the Shibs deserve at least that FD score. Goodness, is that Lenin in the Kiss & Cry with them?

I don't think they have Japanese citizenship. Am I wrong?
