Not their best, messy sbs jumps and on axel lift

FS: 63.35+68.40 = 131.75, 3/5

 

[Jasira]

Oh boy. Didn´t expect that. What is happening today?

 

[invisiblespiral]

P/J are such a lovely pair...

 

[BlissfulSynergy]

Ouch, no team members showed up for them.

Wow, there were definitely skaters in the Canadian box with J/R after their skate. Please stop with the sly and endless dart-throwing. Vanessa is NOT a bully. Eric and Vanessa are NOT evil incarnate.

 

[Dr. Jenn]

I appreciate Peng and Jin's passionate performance, but there were lots of messy moments. Their costumes are lovely.

 

[Mista Ekko]

This shouldn't score more than the americans

But watch them rival the Japanese

 

[Hyena]

This is such a beautiful program from Peng/Jin. Since we've barely seen them this season, I'm so glad we get this extra look at them.

Another messy lift though

 

[Tinymavy15]

Did peng and jin skate the GP this year? I don't remember seeing this program.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Their technical base value is the highest of any team in the pairs events; that‘s how.

This is true. There's a Junior Pair from Russia who do even harder jumps - a Lutz combo I think.

 

[s_parks]

Oh boy. Didn´t expect that. What is happening today?

I swear there's something in that corner of the rink where Jin had a hiccup on the lift; isn't that about the same place M/G just stumbled??

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Peng and Jin hit these unique positions that Belinda calls inelegant, but I think are just ill suited to a traditional program. They're perfect for the quirky programs that are P/J's forte

 

[EdgeCall]

That was a bit of a mixed bag from P/J. Partly very nice, partly a struggle.

What is wrong there? The pairs seemed to be low on energy througout.

 

[clairexmarie]

Love the music of team China's program, feeling a bit more awake now

 

[skatesofgold]

I was bored during that program. Unpopular opinion, I'm sorry.

 

[kmw227]

Peng dear, I am so sorry but that might be the ugliest death spiral position I have ever seen…

Lovely skate though!

 

[3dsushi]

Finally a program with a good music.

 

[nickp91]

So sad to see Alexa have a bad skate tonight and then apologize at the end of the program

 

[flipsydoodle]

I think all these pairs need to swap music with each other. But M/G’s choppy music doesn’t belong on any one.

 

[TCAngel18]

Omg the Japanese are going to finish 2nd! This is going to be a nail biter! Chock and bates HAVE to beat the Canadians, and Karen CANNOT lose to Zhu.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Love Peng/Jin! Don’t think it’ll be enough for the lead but I’m happy they skated well.
