There is a reason skaters hate going to this GP.

My lip curled at the first words in the opening pose. They didn't do enough to uncurl it.

Go team Turkey!

Yeah, the score for B/S is a little high, but even TAT said, we're in Russia Honestly, I felt they were undermarked at SA, so I'm ok with the score, especially since Americans were marked just as high at SA and Canadians - at SC.

This is why Worlds 2017 will be so interesting...no major home ice advantages...

What is that document?? I am confused.

I need a drink. Oh god this is so depressing.

Right? I think I may have to go into full blown delusional stan mode so I can make it through the GP series this year. Oy.

I really liked that from Zahorski/Guerreiro. Lots of fun, and they look happy when they skate, like they're actually enjoying themselves.

 

[Idontsk8]

Is it just me or do these two pieces of music seem.. totally not a good fit?

And if I saw their last names I would say they were American. I'd never guess Russian. Interesting.

The first song might be a bit too risque. I have no problem with it but.. it's definitely dirty.

Guerreiro is a Portuguese surname, his father is Portuguese and mother Russian, born in Australia.

These pieces also don't seem to fit together at all. All night long is too fun for the first piece, some more sultry swing would fit better. Anyway nice debut in GP circuit

I'm not a WeaPo fan, but the fact that they may be supplanted by G&P is such a joke.

Well of course it's high its COR. There is a reason skaters hate going to this GP. The judging has always been highly suspect when it comes to the Russians here.

LOL, ~75 for B&S. When in Russia.

Did yall forget what Canadian skaters got at home. Especially Osmond.

B/S were so grossly and shamelessly overscored... poor Chock/Bates they are trying to rob them for the second time this season :sarcasm:

 

[ancientpeas]

I can't help but like this team. I want them to do well at least in part because I love skaters from small feds.

 

[TheGrandSophy]

I didn't think they really 'got' the music.

 

[noidont]

I don't think you can say the judging is rigged when USA's own Sharon Rogers is in the house.

 

[ancientpeas]

Thanks. I was wondering about that.

Surely skating for Australia would their best option? Seems like the Australian fed would want them.

In the SP, they were underscored at Skate America

Even if C/B are second though they are guaranteed a G/P spot though. also, their PB in the FD is 112, B/S is only 107. I'm not worried

Nobody can forgot that, Canadians have been razzed non stop since last weekend on the forums.

 

[ancientpeas]

Maybe we should wait for the protocols before we start saying it's rigged?

But some ppl have & always have dbl standards & see teh home advantage only in certainn countries
