2018 Olympic Figure Skating Pairs FS

[Roo87]

Brings me back to Elladg at nationals...still crying

 

[SarahSynchro]

Gawd, now I’m sad.

 

[Silvia451]

no...

 

[Mista Ekko]

Sadly no Bronze for the French

But a great couple of years they had

Italians must be pinching themselves

 

[alpaca]

Jeez... I cannot believe that they thought putting candyman last was a good idea. :hslap:

 

[lavenderblossom]

omg that ending was beautiful... I wanted them to go clean so badlyyyy

 

[GGFan]

EPIC! Shedding a tear or two for that double sal, but lord how I love this team. They're the only ones who can get away with this version of Sounds of Silence. It's everything. Unique, modern, just what pairs needed this quad :hap57:

ETA: +10 PCS for Morgan, let's be real

 

[colormyworld240]

That is the most awkward, pointless costume change ever. They looked lovely to start with and then they start undoing buttons for the grand reveal.

These two are fine but I almost want to see them trade programs - minus the costume unbuttoning - with T/M. Candyman might liven them up, whereas T/M might be able to do something with this music.

THIS. If they swapped programs, they would do a million times better, both of them. I think they would sell Candyman, and Swan Lake is definitely for T/M with their gorgeous lines and skating skills. Where was the RusFed during test skates...

So we're still waiting for the clean throw quad at the Olys?

That could happen today with D/R. Their success rate in practice has been quite good.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Vanessa is still the sexiest woman skater in a catsuit ever, thou.

And I say that as a straight woman.

 

[kresslia]

Noo...

 

[HollyRose]

I'm sorry J/C, I love you guys, but I really hope this doesn't go ahead of Marchei/Hotarek

[Leelee425]

They are wonderful, curse that double jump

 

[rollerblade]

Very nice ending sequence, indeed.

Shame for those mistakes. Was the quad throw fully rotated?

 

[*~RussianBleux~*]

Was that a fall on the quad?

 

[shiroKJ]

Beautiful people, beautiful program, beautiful skating.

 

[kevinVchicago]

What an enormous pity that they didn't deliver.

 

[invisiblespiral]

Shame about the errors, but I liked J/C.

 

[jillredhand]

:eeking: AAAAHhhhh I don't know how to feel about that. Those errors, those errors... but not so bad that they're completley without hope.... OH nooooo.
