Wow this last Chinese team was amazing! I wonder if they'll make the podium!

Although someone likes to shout whenever the Chinese pairs are doing lifts, I feel like it's the coach, although they should know better, but maybe not...

Or maybe not since the coach is a lady...bit of a mystery then.

 

[s_parks]

Uhhh, that's not going to get them on the podium, but, overall they've really improved from last year. But please, someone in the Chinese fed please do something about the sbs jumps...:curse:

Gasp! Ted just forgot that one of the last teams is from Australia!

Ted you've disappointed me, which is something I thought I'd never say

They do train in Russia I'll grant him that.

this flashback is also karne approved. :agree:

Although someone likes to shout whenever the Chinese pairs are doing lifts, I feel like it's the coach, although they should know better, but maybe not....

it nearly gave me a heart attack in fright

 

[Spirals for Miles]

So glad that Gao/Xie are ahead of Lu/Mitrofanov, but that's probably just because of SP leads... Lu/Mitrofanov could be competitive with the US senior pairs, but she's not age eligible this year :sad21:

 

[Princessroja]

Whoa, Lu/Mitrofanov just beat their personal best in the free skate by 20 points. :shocked:

 

[s_parks]

They need to emote/perform more...

Well, strong skate from Daria and Denis, minus that funky fall. I would like to see some more connection with the music though... but hopefully that'll come over the year.
