So did this one lift error cost Aaron/Settlage both of the two points of deduction that they received?

It's an honest question. Not trying to sound argumentative. Trying to learn more about what happened. Thanks.

I'm not Ice Dance, sorry, but I can answer your question.
Settlage did 4.5 revolutions during the lift, which is more than 3.5 revolutions allowed between a take off and exit from the lift (bended elbow). So the lift is illegal. They not only got 2 points deduction for that, but also their lift got 'base' level (4LiB). Look in the protocols, you'll see it. So the loss of points is actually more than just 2 points deduction.

Better today, though they need alot of polish - All lifts seemed laboured
Did they use to be singles skater - because all hard pairs element were frontloaded, but sbs were quite late?

Gladiator!

He is not dressed appropriately, though her dress is closer.

She's, er, taking the character of the dead wife quite seriously, so it seems... :slink:

Ignoring the very low difficulty that actually wasn't bad... they went clean which must be exciting for them.

i really like this team from LTU, they have so much promise,
during the pair spin they got so close at sit position though, i thought they were gonna slap eachother with their extended arms :laugh:

Max having a rough day - no good jumps, and dropped Maddie out of the first lift. I hope his back isn't bothering him.

Sorry, I know a lot of people are huge fans of Maddie and Max, but this was terribly sloppy and completely uninspired.

In all absolute honesty, while she is still a lovely and petite girl, she has gotten quite a bit bigger and it can't be helping.
