Doesn't matter, they will win. Judges preferes them this season and they have advantage from SD.

Alas, probably true. I just can't get into their skating, it just does nothing for me.

9 Viktoria Sinitsina/ Nikita Katsalapov

Music: Io Ci Saro performed by Andrea Bocelli feat. Lang Lang

Blue satin dress, sparkly waist / black sweater, pants

She wonky on 1st set of twizzles, he botches 2nd set (stepout, short on rotation)
Big mistakes on twizzles, but the other elements were good.
Will their lead be enough to cinch them the gold?

FD: 46.43+55.44 = 101.87, 175.83, 2/9

Pity for the mistakes because this program has EVERYTHING. Lines, speed, musicality: they really have it all to be on Worlds podium in a couple of seasons

 

[Snow63]

Worst performance of the season from Sinitsina/Katsalapov. A lot of small mistakes, not to mention the big ones.

 

[bwayrose7]

Still holding out hope for a B/S-S/K-I/Z podium

ESPN commentator is not thrilled with the program- calls it "monotone."

 

[Bumdid]

Not their best performance. Eh. They'll podium for sure though. Hopefully they do well in Euro and Worlds.

They can't possibly win with this mess of twizzels, can they?

It was a hot mess but they will probably win. My Russian husband Nikita will be at Worlds with me

 

[Sugarpova]

haha & they both had botchered twizzles

 

[NicolettaL]

As I like Sinkats lvl4 +GOE for those twizzles? Let's be serious... Come on...

 

[Sophie-Anna]

They can't possibly win with this mess of twizzels, can they?

They shouldn't. But they can. Because judges can do anything, absolutely anything they want (we saw it for example at GPF). I must say, yes I'm not the biggest fan of this couple (I am cheering for I/Z) , but this season they really improved. They had pretty strong GP season. But they shouldn't win with this mistake. But maybe they will.

 

[Alchamei]

Nikita the Twizzle Katsalapov probably won't win that title again. TES only 46.

 

[Sugarpova]

ugh & they did great twizzles at practice

 

[Snow63]

Happy dayssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaa!!!! Katia!!!! Dima!!!!

 

[MsLiinaLii]

I am scared judges will put S/B ahead of I/Z...

No. It will not happen. If we say it enough it will be true :agree:

 

[Snow63]

Like I said more than once: CONSISTENCY IS THE KEY!

 

[NicolettaL]

Nooooooooooooo

 

[Bumdid]

Oh Jeez. I think I need to drink before seeing S/B FD again...
