Question: Advantage or disadvantage to H/D to be skating last?

 

[thoakun]

I think the contrast in skating skills between Weapo and the rest of this group is very obvious. Skating skill wise, they belong to group 1. And they definitely can pull of passionate program. Their Maria de Buenos Aires is a masterpiece.

Come on CB!!!!!!!!! Whatever happens, you're still my heroes!!!

 

[Alchamei]

They were hanged? Oh no :eekn:

Wait, did I say anything wrong? Oh English and its meanings.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

I'm gonna try to stay tuned but I gotta be honest...I'm fearing the Schmaltz potential coming up.

 

[nolangoh]

Well honestly the some of the PCS is so wrong

 

[Nathan13]

Question: Advantage or disadvantage to H/D to be skating last?

Depends on how their American teammates do...

 

[coldblueeyes]

And just you wait, if any of the teams mess up a bit in the next group they are going behind everyone else. I can totally see it. (Though, it wouldn't be surprising since there's five or six teams between a 3-point margin)

Question: Advantage or disadvantage to H/D to be skating last?

Heavily depends on how the rest of the group does.

(Skating after Virtue and Moir though, eek)

Lol. I remember a time when it was the dancers who brought the over the top bling.... it is totally minimalist now!!!

I say I like the fashion now, but deep in my heart of hearts I want programs like this again

 

[Anyasnake]

Not even first in the free, REALLY ?
I don't prefer any team over the other here it's just FACTS. They were very good compared to B/S who weren't at their best, and with PCS included, they still got to be behing in the free...
We will see how much the other will get now...

I honestly have no idea where the judges keep pulling those super high PCS for Bobrova & Soloviev from, but then again I never got their scores. Their retirement following Pyeongchang is one I am looking forward to, sorry to say it especialy after I chastised some people in the pairs thread for saying the same thing about Duhamel & Radford for being mean, haha.

 

[4everchan]

so i ditched my appointment right at the time weapo were starting so i could watch them...

when i saw the score, in 3 of FD i was thought it was a joke.... really? whatever.

Question: Advantage or disadvantage to H/D to be skating last?

Just a guess... advantage.

Skating right after V/M should be right when the judges are throwing GOE and PCS like madmen.

 

[bramweld]

What is going on? Do they take us for complete idiots? In what universe did B/S deserve to be placed above C/L? I am very, very annoyed with the games and politricks going on here!! Not impressed. Come on top 5, bring it

 

[WeakAnkles]

It's mush. It's supposed to be easy to swallow...

The russians were a hot mess. Interesting how they reappear a year before the Olympics. This happened before that last Olympic cycle.

I think the contrast in skating skills between Weapo and the rest of this group is very obvious. Skating skill wise, they belong to group 1. And they definitely can pull of passionate program. Their Maria de Buenos Aires is a masterpiece.

I've picked up on your lack of love for Team Beaver. Eh, everyone got different tastes, I guess.

They are, in terms of skating skills, skating better than ever. But they are languishing in the standings. And no, I don't put the blame on them now being Canada #2 behind Virtue/Moir. Look at the Americans...they are all duking it out virtually neck and neck.

Their material this year was unfortunately simply forgettable. What they need is new and innovative to get the judges' attention again, and they need it stat if they hope to be fighting for the podium at the Olympics next year. They have all the skill to do it, just not the vehicles.
