Did they run out of money for the chairs in K&C lol?

This facility is on the smaller side and there is almost no extra room around the boards except for that entrance area from the public hallway where they put the K&C (& believe me it's very tight area).
Stands only on 1 side of the rink, judges on the side of the camera.

There is still no result page on the ISU site. So I guess there will not be live results as we go.

[Sackie]

It will be interesting to see how the judges use the levels in the dance at this event to place the teams where they want them.

 

[dorispulaski]

The new rules have been inconsistently used from event to event so far this season. It will be interesting to see the judging here, I agree.

I think you're right re absence of live results, Sackie.

But happy that the live stream is available.
And @skatingpj is on site and is tweeting, as are others. #ACI14

Whole Post...

Thank you for sharing those links!!!

I am just so excited! I can't wait to see what types of scores the dance teams present will receive. (In particular: P/I, P/C, H/D, G/P, etc.)

Pouln/ Servant

loss of balance by Poulin in 2nd twizzle. I don't think she got 4 rotations.

doubt the paso got level 3
41.9 announced later

scores not available at first

 

[dorispulaski]

Maekawa Morenos

paso superficially ok

first twizzle set nice with extended leg.
one pirouette in 2nd set by her
3rd set messy by him

39.78 into first

 

[dorispulaski]

Fournier-Beaudry/ Sorensen

Malaguena with vocals
some off balance in 2nd twizzle
sloppy step
love her skirt
change of position lift with untidy position. Starts with her upright held up by one arm.



score 53.34

 

[dorispulaski]

Orford /Williams

I like them.
I like this dance.
But they skated nervously with small mistakes, I thought.
And finished late to the music.

Score
47.9

Yikes at O&W's score.

The Denmark team was better than I was expecting. I liked the choreography quite a bit.

 

[Sackie]

Didn't seem like the Den team was that much better than Orford/Williams. But my live feed is not good. Weird in other events the home skaters seem to get a bonus but not in Canada.

 

[FSGMT]

Yeah, I noticed some small mistakes, too, especially some flat edges in the compulsory section and a couple of losses of balance (he) during the step sequence; they seemed overall tense and too "controlled"... hwell:

 

[Sackie]

Little concerned about the next two Can teams now too!
