2018 Olympic Figure Skating Pairs FS

[s_parks]

Honestly, pairs is just the kind of discipline/sport NK would be good at. All about precision and unison.

 

[Skater Boy]

OMG THESE SCORES!!! These are good skates but what in the world are they going to do for Sui and Han 160 plus pts?

 

[Chemistry66]

Hahahaha the official Skate Canada twitter is creeping on positive comments about S/B's skate

 

[Skater Boy]

The Koreans don't have the flow or the power of the Canadians; but they do have a lead still... so far imho both Canadians should score higher so far...but I do like them. Still a bit unfinished.

They have personality though which is great!

Which makes me think of how horrible life must be for the average North Korean... I really hope things get better for that country, somehow!

The pair from North Korea possess each and every feature of future champions. They are graceful, powerful, expressive, synchronized, their elements are spot on. I mean, even their body types are gorgeous.

North Koreans clean! Everyone's bringing it!

Yes, definitely agree. But, this is so much better than 4 continents. They are improving fast.

Wow!! Clean program on the biggest stage with immense national pressure! Good Job :clapper:

DPRK holding onto the jumps! Very nice lifts. A little slow overall though so I don't think they should go above the Canadians.

Hopefully Kim jong un keeps making stupid decisions and the regime/government will ruin itself.

R/K are so gorgeous. Good work.

 

[freeman21]

Is NBC actually skipping the north korean pair?

 

[Harriet]

Well done, Kim/Ryom! That was very nice. And I love her catsuit.

 

[BabblingBrook]

Yup I've watched him in interviews saying he's attached to that one, but it's not like he's a Pooh collector. Meanwhile he's stormed by Pooh bear plushies at all comps and don't know what to do with them

I always thought they must give them to charities - but although he doesn't like them in particular the fans throwing Pooh's in the rink is more about showing support

 

[ice coverage]

Are the North Koreans using the same costume as their SP?

No, different costumes.

PRK Cheering Section: ACTIVATE!

I'm so proud of the two for
1) Qualifying for the Olympics
2) Qualifying for the Freeskate
3) Making it to the second warm up group!

Yeah, they're actually good. They're the only sport discipline that qualified for the Olympics by merit from North Korea after all

 

[SpiffySpiders]

I hope these two keep showing up to competitions! They have so. much. potential.
