@bartlebooth since when Giorgia sings like Ambra?

I find the song especially grating, but , hey, if they skate well on it...

@elektra blue:

Seeing Irina and Edoardo again reminds me. You know that discussion we had last week about the reviews of the restaurant belonging to my main skating crush's family. Well, I discovered why all the reviews were all in Italian...

It was the Italian version of Trip Advisor that had come up in the Google search results, not the English version.

I didn't realise that the different language versions were essentially different sites. I thought all reviews would come up on all regional versions of Trip Advisor.

When I did go to the English site, the reviews were not great. So, maybe I would have been better off not looking it up.

you should find someone younger to help you with this tech stuff, grandpa

 

[Jumping_Bean]

No!

They were even closer last time, just 0.17 off Eh, just send them to Bavarian Open, last time the judges were quite generous.

 

[labgoat]

Nice choreography by SUI Wenjing for this team.

By the way, we are in for heartbreak with Canada only having two spots in pairs at Jr Worlds

tell me about it... another of these situations of an 6+8 = 14 like we had in senior ice dance.....

 

[labgoat]

So close between 1-2-3

off to update the rewatch. Can't believe draw is still not posted for Nepala

 

[4everchan]

junior pairs at nationals will be something else... but not just junior. senior pairs... 3 teams only can go to home worlds... and about 5 would deserve going.

 

[labgoat]

@elektra blue I think I underestimated your pair team.

Even more frustrating is that Australia has 3 spots but doesn't even have three teams, much less three teams with any chance of getting the Jr Worlds tech minimums. I really wish there was some sort of redistribution system, or something so that these kinds of situations happened less.

Not just Australia but Japan too. The ISU is shooting itself in the foot because the junior competitions are developmental and they should make sure that more teams are able to access them as needed. I am not saying that a country should have 5 spots. Not at all. However, in Juniors, as the winners often move on to seniors afterwards, there are often unused spots. They can do better for sure in protecting the sport.
