Miniiikiiiiii

I see Mark has picked up on the "Miniki" name.

Sorry, but every time I hear that, I think of Lauren Laverne's band, Kenickie.

Kenickie - "In Your Car"

Anyway, back to Minerva and Nikita.

They win both FS and overall by a mile!

What a reaction!!! We have a very happy bunny!

Minerva nailing the two 2A in the combo after the wobble on the first jump was so impressive. Great skate and a well deserved win for her and Nikita.

Now time to celebrate it

I'm - no doubt exactly like yourself - on it for quite some time now.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

All right I’m off, maybe I’ll have to hunt down Rinky myself before the women’s free… won’t be here for the men but good luck to the brave ones watching live

Beautiful skate. I love Winter. Congratulations to Minerva and Nikita. Wow, that last one foot lift on tired legs. You gotta be tough and have tons of grit to do pairs!!!!!

I have absolutely no idea what I was thinking putting these two in 4th in my predictions in fact I can’t remember at all so maybe it was a misclick. Won’t make that mistake again!

I think I may have done that as well.

 

[LadyB]

Wishing you all fun with the men! See you around

What a night, first the terrible happenings with Rebecca and Philippo before the skate and then his emotional response, then Elly and Danny's skate which really moved me, then Niccolo's nerves (with a good skate regardless), followed by Anasatiisia and Luca's bland skate (I wish they put some of their exhibition personality into their programmes) , then looking at Riku and Ryuchi's beautifulness (but with mistakes) and then finally the best of the best with the Germans. They did it again, but all of the skaters did well. No cactussing!

I now but when I was at vacation in London and local beers were for 7 - 10 €, beers from Polish shop were like manna from heaven

An unexpected troubles for pretty much everyone, but Hase/Volodin just stormed it.

Good work for the Germans - solid, great tech! Okay not magic but when you skate clean and well it is beautiful. As for the Japanese they will probably still win worlds but this is a bit disappointing that they can't win when they are by far the class of the field. This is a team that shold be able to score around 230 when skating well. Time ffor Megan Duhamel to give them a pep talk and get going as this was not good. Barely holding on to silver. Like the Georgians. Good work ffor them and the Americans were impressive to get fifth.

So happy for Miniki and I think they could exceed 220 by the end of the season.

Wish we could have seen the final lift in its full glory instead of the random close up from the cameraman.
