yuko looks unimpressed

I thought they did fine

Well, at the end of the day, she is Japanese. So she will want to do as best as possible in front of her home fans.

Moskvina and Mishin cheerleading...priceless!

Drat! I missed that!

Interesting supporters from the Russian team area - there were nearly more coaches than skaters! :laugh:

But, so good to see Liza there!!! :love:

Oooh CaroLiza_fan I am so glad you mentioned skaters wearing glasses off the ice. Because I have been wondering what these skaters do when they are on the ice? Do they wear contact lenses and then
take them out? Or are they so familiar with the ice, they don't need to worry about having perfect vision? I have been wondering about this for a long time, but felt embarrassed to ask.

Jason said in an interview once that not seeing the audience clearly helped with his nerves. I guess some might wear contacts. :shrug:

Yay, Stray Cat Strut! Don't finish behind the music this time! Hit that final pose! :cheer:

I think a summer camp with Ingo would greatly help Alexa/Chris in terms of getting the polishing and some good ol' competitive push

S/K still need some work on the second mark, but man, their elements really show promise. That twist :love:

Pretty uproarious crowd response too.

is anyone else having trouble with the icenetwork feed? it told me I needed to subscribe (which I already am doing) or logout then log back in. I tried that and I got the same message. I then tried completely closing my browser and still the same thing. :bang:

Chock/Bates are there, though, although they have to skate soon too. Great - obviously they really want to support their teammates.

No need to feel embarassed.

I wear glasses myself, so when I saw photos of Caro and Kovtun wearing glasses at Europeans in 2014, I pounced. And then somebody else started an actual thread on the topic.

My post in that thread has links to the earlier discussions.

From the answers then, it seems some wear contacts, and some don't.

Speaking on a personal note, I am too squeemish to wear contacts. But, my sight is so bad that I couldn't go without. So, I just wear my glasses all the time.

But, I'm not a skater!

Try clearing your history/cache/saved passwords. That's happened to me before, though not today. No idea what caused it. The stream is delayed a couple of minutes behind everyone else's

gravy · Apr 17, 2015

I love their SP! :agree:

OK so under the big watch live there is a mini one click that. It finally worked but nothing else did.
