The person on the left of our screen would not be able to enter a bank looking like that.

Whaaat?! We lost one of our Chinese pairs Hope they're OK!

Good luck to Zhang/Yang!

I wonder how these two came to represent the Phillipines? I guess Isabella has a parent or something born there.

Good to see they have representation!

She is filipino-american

Hey these guys did their twist at the opposite end of the rink to any pair I've ever seen.

This intrigues me!

Honestly, I don't know how long of a future the pair from the Philippines will have together.

He seems very frustrated a lot of the time (not just with her, but also himself as he is making mistakes too) and I can imagine it must be very hard to adjust to being restricted to this level when you have the experience of being one of the top 10 Russian pairs (he used to be Alisa Efimova's partner).

I do think they have the potential to be a lot better, but it's an uphill battle for sure.

I thought that initial twist lift by Gamez and Korovin was pretty good. Rough landing but very high and fast - would have deserved at least neutral goe's for me.

Unexpected dance lift!

What an intriguing pair indeed!

Lots of space between them on the sbs 2A which she missed, then 2 huge throws.

Who is Marina Zueva's assistant?

 

[slider11]

Can't do Les Mis without some fire and spirit. Miss Zhang looked overwhelmed and scared.

It sounds like some bug is being passed among the skaters....I hope that whoever catches it gets better quickly.

Wait no Hongbo?!

I'm surprised!

[Jumping_Bean]

Another late WD

They were literally just doing the warm-up, what's in the water (or air) in Colorado Springs?

every time i attend a skating event, i am sick ... so this is not surprising... however, these days, people have understood they should stay home when they feel ill...

You love your Chinese pair men don't you

 

[labgoat]

Wait no Hongbo?!

I'm surprised!

Tici Zhang, Jinlin Guan & Lun Song are listed as coaches for both Chinese teams.
I read somewhere the fed was unsatisfied with Hongbo Zhao

 

[anonymoose_au]

Did they get an angry goose stuffie?!

 

[slider11]

where do you see Marina?

First pairs coach. Baseball cap and mask.

I happen to still harbor some good feelings for Sasha Korovin, and I am sorry to say that he has a worse partner in his current team than he had with Alisa Efimova. Look at her now with Ruben Blommaert, she's thriving. Like, I know that he has his shortcomings, but (sigh)

This was a horror show, not a program. Fortunate that they didn’t get hurt, but… no. Just no.
