Oh, good. Happy to see you all. My stream froze, and I had to restart my computer. Hope that doesn't happen again. Warm-up of 2nd group beginning!

It's nice to see completely new names in B events. I didn't know Israel had pair skaters. I always associated it with ice dance and men category. The same with Kazakhstan. Maybe thanks to Denis Ten and Elizabet Tursynbaeva there's increasing interest for figure skating in this country.

I enjoyed watching Annika and Ruben. She has such beautiful positions and posture. Especially in the lifts. On a superficial level, I love the name Annika. :)

Okay ... House of the Rising Sun woke me up. :) Looked like it energized Minerva and Nolan as well.

Which German couple were training mates of Aljona and Bruno?

Yes they didn't skate very well but I enjoy Annika and Ruben, they have some nice qualities. The other German pair had a much better LP than I remember in their previous events.

Deanna stumbled going into her 3T and did a good job pulling off the jump. Too bad Nate had trouble.

I'm surprised Deanna and Nate went into first. However, I dislike their music; that may affect me. From now on I'll watch that program on mute!

I also feel like their lifts were more spectacular last season. I'm sure they're embracing variety, but I miss them. Deanna has such stellar (yeah pun intended!) positions, which make their lifts so beautiful.

La Strada costume factory, time to open! :laugh:

Good luck to all 3 teams, my heart is with Knierims though, to continue a positive breakout from NHK!

It was not perfect, but I saw that this program progressed them in paying more attention to detail in movement, how it reflects the music, lots of intricate, beautiful moments!

The Knierims free skate is beautiful. It was sad to see Chris double one jump and single another after rotating nearly every triple jump so far this season. That cost them a lot of points obviously. I wonder if they will consider replacing the 3T for a 2A until they can get more comfortable.

The back-to-back throw flip and loop at the end by Alexa are impressive. They are the strongest pair here and must feel disappointed to have let so many points slip away.
