No way should S/S be in the lead. Go K/S, you can do it. Love this programme,

I almost think both Canadian teams should be on the podium but Ssquared will be held up. I would score them 125 to 126 but I doubt the judges will be so bold. They lacked their normal conviction.

I am sorry, the throw 3axel was two-footed and hand was close.

I find it very hard to understand how S/S could win.

Internet is going to explode now. It's gonna be worse than the Sale/Pelletier drama. :p

Good on them for going for the 3A!

But, holy hell, that is terrible. Shame on the judges. TES score of 64.18?!?! Let me guess, +3's for the 2T-2T sequence at the beginning and +3's for the 3A at the end? :rolleye:

I have OFFICIALLY given up on this sport. Have been watching since 1988 every year since, Olympics, Worlds, Grand Prix, Nationals. Have put up with controversies, but NO WAY can you explain how S/S just scored ahead of D/R with THAT free skate. Dumb sport!!

Now i have to root for V/T. If S/S win Worlds with that performance there will be a riot.

S/S's skate has real problems in its basic construction. The whole point of the music is that it is a slow, inexorable build, build, build. Torvil and Dean understood that. But S/S start with a HUGE triple twist and it throws the whole program off structurally--it totally contradicts the music. I'm glad they did the triple axel, but that is a disappointing program from a team that usually has the most interesting programs in pairs.

Funnily - MT/M beat D/R on TES today.

Yeah, I thought that M-T/M would have less PCS but better TES. I'm thinking D/R didn't get great GOE on their lifts or death spiral, which were pretty slow.

Scary moment with the lift for K/S... D/R should win bronze otherwise the internet really will explode.

I think if you brought in someone who knew nothing about skating, they would have scored D/R above the Germans. Totally absurd scoring. Not to mention S/S were much slower on the ice.

I feel sick!!! How could S/S score so big?!? That program was filled with mistakes, falls! I am horrified, that's weird, and it should be double checked!

Scary lift mistake. Will cost them a lot of point...

OMG!!! I thought Yuko would go crashing into the audience!! Glad they're both OK and they didn't fall. Did he just get to close to the boards and hit the side???

What a shame!! :bang: It was really a good program, it could have been even better than MT/M, but now I think they will be lucky if they beat P/T...

That was a really scary moment from K/S. I thought he looked a bit nervous and towards the end, looked empty.
