Scores came late...

Was that REALLY worth posting??

96.31, the margin from their short takes them into first over Coomes/Buckland. They both look thrilled. Yay for Penny and Nick and Ruslena!

Never got the hype with Chock & Bates.

"I tell you what.. I wish she'd clean those boots.." LMAO!

PCS jumps 7 points in the span of one competition. Geesh.

 

[Alba]

PCS jumps 7 points in the span of one competition. Geesh.

Welcome to Russia.

ESP - "A sumptuous performance."

They are overscoring so much... It is crazy... Coomes/Buckland 96? Sinitsina/Katsalapov 89? Ilinykh/Zhiganshin 96?

How Coomes/Buckland can get 8.25 skating skills?

 

[Mrs. P]

Chock and Bates were solid! They should win this easily. 52+ on the TES. They will probably get 53+ PCS, so 105..very good score.

Given their program was more difficult than either Coomes and Buckland or Illynkh/Zhiganshin, they deserve that score, IMO.

(I realize I am opening a can of worms for people to dissent, but I stand by my opinion. There was lots of good content in that program).

 

[fleeting]

Chock/Bates looked very good! Madison's pure fire out there today. I really am starting to like them. Her dismount from that first lift was just

 

[WeakAnkles]

They're really gelling now. Coming into their own. Woohoo!

 

[Jammers]

I don't get why so many teams went to Marina in the off season instead of Igor. Say what you want about him but he knows how to get those level 4's. He's having the last laugh.

 

[Alchamei]

Good performance. Expect high score.

 

[Meoima]

I/Z with silver is enough for now.

 

[Snow63]

I think they're future World champions. Sadly.

No - Coomes and Buckland deserved first place. But who cares about my opinion? Only me!

 

[nocturnalis]

The best improvement made was by Igor. He looks really really good.
