:mad:

When he said they were skating to Billy Ray Cyrus, I wanted "Achy Breaky Heart". Not a duet with the daughter.

But, they made up for it by then switching to Joan Jett's version of "I Love Rock And Roll"! :rock: :rock: :rock:

Don't like the costumes.

Did like the skating.

Aww, a baby Spanish team. Nice synchronisation between the two. Levels were not super high, but a decent foundation. Well done ❤️

Baby Germans 🇩🇪 Some issues, particularly on the Back inside Death Spiral, but I'm happy for every team without a fall.
Another team with a bit of an age problem, he's aging out of juniors next season and she won't be senior-eligible yet.

Aliyah ACKERMANN and Tobija HARMS. What great names!

And what great skating too. I really enjoyed them.

And bonus points for choosing Robbie Williams rather than Michael Bublé. It's not that I don't like Bubbles; it's just that his version of the song is used too often.

Could the 6 year age difference become a problem with these new age ranges?

Clearly the best here so far, but might just end up with a score a bit lower than at Ostrava.

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

I was going to crack a joke about them being 27 years too early with their music (Geddit? "Summer Of 42" and "Summer Of 69"), but that was too beautiful to do that.

If there is any justice in the world, this will lead by a mile.

EDIT: OK, 9 points will do.​

It started out strong and then fell apart a bit. Still, great to see a small Fed team both being born and training in the country they represent. ❤️ Also, back inside death spirals are the equivalent of the 4S for junior pairs, are they not? 😅

That was beautiful too.

So good to see a small Fed partnership being so impressive.

If their FS goes as well as their SP, they have a shot at winning a medal. Which would be an amazing achievement.

EDIT: WHAT????!!! Into 3rd, but only just ahead of the bottom 2 partnerships. That is not right! They should be up with the top 2 partnerships! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Last junior season for them, but luckily she is senior-eligible. Shame about the Death Spiral, before that it the program was going well.

Also, not a single jump or throw fall for any of the pairs here in the Short. :hap10:
