Oh, I love those two more and more!

Molodtsy!!! And Vlad has a better hair cut!

 

[EdgeCall]

Great program!

The only problem with Riverdance is that it picks up the most steam when the skaters run out of it.

Pavel is

Poka, Grishin and all!

 

[jen84]

Is Trusova really going to skate?

 

[LadyB]

I'm going abroad for a few days. Don't know how I'm gonna play that, but I sincerely hope I can at least catch most stuff later. Enjoy, guys!

Well boo Day 2 of Sochi seems to be delayed...or maybe the feed is down? It says it was going to start at 10 past the hour...

Oh wait! Here we are, the ol' Iceberg

The ice looks ready to be skated upon

They just played the forbidden music (ISU Fanfare...) and the first group is ready to go.

Nice to see more than 4 couples here! I wonder what happened in Moscow?

Petition for ice creams for the Juniors...they're way more likely to eat them!

 

[EdgeCall]

Is it already over? Same as yesterday, why do I keep dropping in only at the end?

Ice resurfacing

As was expected, easy win for Shcherbakova/Goncharov

I’m currently standing at the boarding gate, watched the last two Ice Dance teams. Congrats to Anna and Egor - I like them a lot. I’ll miss my pairs, so good luck to Klimov Team Merenkova/Galimov!

Generously cut dresses with sailors stripes. It's a choice.

 

[EdgeCall]

R/K have a nice classical program with fitting costumes. If they can get rid of the mistakes it will be a looker.

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Far better skate from Julia and Alexey today!

 

[Mariiiiskate]

Daniil and Varvara did so well!
I wonder tho if they will stick together for much longer, He is done growing and she is still growing, he is already struggling with lifting her up and throwing her during twist and throws, they make it work but how much longer. As well as this is his last junior eligible season while its her 1st one and she wont be senior eligible even nationally for many seasons now

 

[EdgeCall]

Daring music choice, beautiful dresses, great performance.

Maybe they were a bit cautious with interpretation, but if they had done the music justice the hall would stand no more.
