Why no one dare to do the twist laste in the program?

Pairs elements should be judged separately like in ice dance. One fabulous element can be overlooked because of the mistake of the other partner. The girl did a good 3S-euler-3S.

Looks like Rinky has finally arrived and took the first testing bites. Now I'm scared for the men.

The pair who never deceived me with their costumes is B/K. It can be simple but so elegant.

 

[EdgeCall]

Congrats to the medallists But there is room for improvement.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Their TES didn't go down. I think 3S+Eu+3S was called, but the level on the twist was rewatched.

But i don't know what would have happened if she was american or Canadian.

Probably nothing, considering the whole reason for the raise of the senior age to 15 was an American skater's Olympic gold (Tara Lipinski).

And it's not like the US has not had issues with most of their top skaters not being senior-eligible, in some years they had to send skaters ranked as low as 7th at US Nationals to Worlds because they didn't have enough higher-ranked skaters who were old enough, but the age-rules never were reversed.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Im so nervous for this

 

[YuBluByMe]

Men on the ice!

Only three skaters?

 

[elektra blue]
