Wow The CAN team certainly took a big dive in score form their 1st event. Not surprised!

I am sad to see the JGP drawing to a close. I will really miss spending the end of the week with Ted (my new favorite skating commentator).

Other than pronouncing names (which I couldn't do any better, by the way) he is a kind, informative, to-the-point and enthusiastic commentator.
He's always happy when someone does well. :thumbsup:

Is he a coach or former skater?

Isn't Ted a Skate Canada guy, head of the BC/YT section?

He is/has really done a great job this season.

I really liked the young Ukrainian team Maria GOLUBTSOVA / Kirill BELOBROV!

They have a smooth, light, almost care-free style in this dancers, not to mention a cool lift :) :cheer: good job guys! At 14 &14 you have a great future ahead, I hope and expect.

Interesting that those getting new SB are those with tech and /or judges on the panel. Expect to see Becker/Becker come in at about 56+

Level 2 on the Beckers' lift is a significant hit by the tech panel. Looks like the change of position was not found to be distinct? The same call was made on Ghislandi & Ortenzi ITA's lift, so the panel was consistent that way.

I did not like the timing from the Beckers on the polka section.

With the Techs from USA AND RUS why do they also get judges on the panel? Just doesn't seem fair. Expect the Parsons to get all level 4s! And the Beckers to have a great showing for their first outing.

The Technical Controller (USA) doesn't give the levels---the Technical Specialists (RUS and AUT) do that. The TC is there to settle disputes and make sure rules are followed.
