Thanks, dorispulaski and tsuyoboogie. I know it's not much of a competition, but excited about seeing the baby pairs (guess YunaSumi aren't really baby any more).

I am just thankful no one has to fly from Canada at the last moment.

I'm back and watching the pairs warm up (and glad I paid for Himawari)!

 

[lileychristie]

AyuLuca!! Amazing SBS 3Lz!!!!

Nice throw 2S too, it got some height despite being a double. And the sbs spin was well synchronized on the first position too. I hope they stay together and keep improving

Very good SBS. The rest is still in the process of developing but they are a pleasant pair.

 

[yuumagical]

Oh no, not the hard rock cover of Feeling Good...

 

[lileychristie]

Oh no, is Riku okay?? Amazing skate but she was in tears holding her left shoulder right after their ending pose. I hope it's not a dislocated shoulder

 

[cocteautwin]

What a skate from RikuRyu! Fantastic. Is she ok?

 

[lileychristie]

Riku is flabbergasted at the score

I LOVE this program!

Oh no, did Riku injure her shoulder?!
Maybe not...she's saying she was super nervous...but why?
I guess everyone gets Nationals jitters~

[readernick]

Yes, she looks to be in pain. Hopefully, it's not serious.

 

[yuumagical]

Amazing performance from RikuRyu!

But I just heard Riku say "super uneasy," I hope she's not hurt
