Ono-Shrieber (Japan) Nice twist, nice lift but everything else was problematic (nice death spiral too). Fell on the throw, doubled the sbs and the footwork was messy. Shame.
That's Mancini-Reekie in last place....but they were philosophic about it....Christian Reekie had a serious situation with blood poisoning following a foot/ankle infection last December.

Shumacher-Daleman (is this Gaby's brother?) Spanish pop music. Slow and cautious but they are banging out the elements. Well done! she seemed really dizzy at the end.
Yes, Zachary Daleman is Gabby's younger brother...he skated singles up to the end of last season. He's new to pairs, but they have several of the challenging pairs elements under control if cautiously done.
An SP of ~36 is solid for them in August of their first season in pairs. I see a lot to like with them as a team, and as pairs skaters. I'm looking to the future with these two.
A special recognition for Paxton Knott...another 2 discipline skater from London, ON.
He and his [apparently quite young partner] Patricia Andrew are in 5th after the SP with a ~37 score.
When I saw Paxton skate in the Junior Men's FS...It showed that he's used to skating with a partner, but I hadn't realized he's skating pairs. Kudos to him and the others for continuing to push their development as singles skaters while taking on the challenging discipline of pairs.
Loving Luba and Dylan's new SP to Phil Collin's In the Air...
Polish, intensity, and landed [if a bit of a turn-out for Luba] SBS jumps. 65.69
Looks as though they are saving the big reveal for the costumes until the international season begins....
I/M 65.90
Rau/Wilkinson Another I'll put a spell on you (sigh) One extra reason to hate the 50 Shades of Grey movie. Low double twist, fall on the side by side, decent lift, decent throw (although not much ice coverage)
41.95

Or they are going for arty French movie look. I thought she doubled the jump.
I so need video. It's just finally hitting me, the season has begun.
