2014 NHK Trophy Free Dance 11/29

Yes, I agree. We need to tone down on the harsh comments towards Nikita. Yes he may not be our favourite person, but it always makes me a bit queasy to kick someone when they're down. This will hopefully be a watershed moment for them, leading to greater things. They just need to be more patient with themselves.

:thumbsup:

77.39 for Coomes/Buckland, into 4th...

No, I can't believe it. I&Z got the spot?

 

[charmblade]

Not sure, did M/K get 4th at their other GP? Because then it would go to a tie-breaker with I/Z.

 

[Skategmt]

So who goes to the GPF? I/Z?

Yepnthey are officially in i believe

 

[gmyers]

I/z getting gpf spot and s/k getting last place fd. I/z are already more successful than I/k in their first gp season.

 

[fleeting]

Does that mean I/Z get into GPF?!

I believe so! They both have 4th and 2nd place finishes, but I/Z have a higher score total than Monko/Khaliavin - 152.54 to 160.43!

That was honestly unexpected... Go Ruslena! And keep going, WeaPo!

Yeahhhhhhhh! I can't believe that.

Beautiful. Summer and Winter dancing side by side

PS: I hope it's summer. I'm only familiar with Winter.

Solid skate from Weaver/Poje, but their twizzles were out of sync and miles away. But hey! She looks gorgeous and sold that program well. I'm not sure how I feel about his shirt. I didn't like the last one either...

 

[charmblade]

Sooo happy for Kaitlin and Jean-Luc getting a medal!

 

[anyanka]

That last section in W/P FD was a thing of beauty. So much power, energy and passion! The twizzles were cautious and too far away. Well done!

Also, molodets to I/Z, they just got that last GPF spot!

 

[bramweld]

Yeahhhhhhhh! I can't believe that.

Oh, boy. Sad for S/K but so happy for I/Z:dance:

 

[fleeting]

Well, this season is surely turning out to be more interesting than I ever anticipated

 

[lmarie086]

Liked this performance of Four Seasons much better than in SC, much improved. It felt less dated, though Andrew looks dated still a bit IMO. Kaitlyn looks lovely in that golden yellow.

I wanted Hawayek/Baker to medal...but not like this! (((Coomes/Buckland)))

 

[sses1]

Horrible news for C/B, but i'm happy for I/Z since they were the ones that everyone underestimated.

 

[Skategmt]

Sooo happy for Kaitlin and Jean-Luc getting a medal!

I am too! I think they will surpass Hubbell and Donahue as well as Aldridge and Eaton at US Nationals

 

[fleeting]

I love how all the DSC teams say hi to the rink in the K&C, it's sweet

101.91 for free for 169.42 total for Weaver/Poje, winning first!

 

[fleeting]

1. Weaver/Poje
2. Monko/Khaliavin
3. Hawayek/Baker
4. Zhiganshina/Gaszi
5. Coomes/Buckland
6. Reed/Reed
7. Sinitsina/Katsalapov
8. Hirai/De La Asuncion

WeaPo are giving an interview

 

[WeakAnkles]

Oh no!!!!!

H/B will medal...

Unfortunately there is no icon for gagging and heaving...

Oh, sorry, I thought you were talking about M/K taking silver for that Drah-Mah crapfest. Never mind.

And much as I love W/P, that program isn't going to get them gold at Worlds. YMMV of course...

 

[Sandpiper]

Aww, Kaitlyn attempts to address the audience in Japanese.
