[sunnystars]

and she falls down

 

[firal]

a fall again! they were doing so well!

 

[kresslia]

What? Evident bleeding and then the fall. What's happening here...

 

[Icey]

How did she hurt her knee?

 

[evangeline]

OMG huge fall by Stepanova

Noooooo

 

[samson]

whaaaaaaat even happened there? it looked so good until then.

 

[smasma]

Alexandra Stepanova fall almost at the end?!

 

[ancientpeas]

oh no.. a fall.

I guess my thinking that I/Z wouldn't be the 1st place russian team were wrong. And this is why Ice Dance is the discipline I find the most puzzling.

 

[Cyn]

Several bobbles/wonky throughout - nerves?

Oohhhhh crap! Stepanova down towards the end of the FW sequence. That's going to send their score plummeting.

Who would have thought ice dance would be the splatfest... Fingers crossed this is getting it out of the way for the ladies to skate clean??

Definitely not I. That was the LAST place I expect to have splatfests.

 

[WeakAnkles]

S/B were really really off. I thought the whole thing was slowwwwwww and messy and nervous even before the fall. And it's a shame because they've got such an elegant look on the ice. Not their day.

And you gotta hand it to the Chinese camera people. They really have a knack for capturing exactly the WRONG angle at the WRONG time. That's a talent of some kind.

ETA: Hmmm, ahead of Hurtado and Diaz? Well if you say so...

 

[justtojoke]

OMG THIS EVENT AND THE FALLING [/QUOT

The skaters with mistakes are ones w/ less experience. It's a bit of a stale arena and on a big stage such as this when you don't have the audience to push you like you expect that can rattle your nerves. I expecting the more veteran teams to pull the crowd in to their performances.

 

[cebi26]

Their twizzles are so interesting! Sad about the fall

 

[Alba]

5th, 59.62

 

[evangeline]

I hope this SD isn't another 2006 Olympics OD all over again......

 

[Sophie-Anna]

OMGG!!!!That was so good!!!What's going on with all the couples. Too many mistakes. I love S/B. He is really expressive and I think this is what we call Russian school of ice dance. Why? Twizzles, and especially the first set was really good.

 

[MK's Winter]

Ouch

 

[Alchamei]

Why the first performance I saw had to that bad... I feel bad for her though.

 

[auser]

Have we seen an unusual amount of stumbles in this event or is it because there are 24 dance teams and I'm used to watching GP events? I hope no one has jinxed the event
