The skating skills were sublime in this program, both Guillaume and Laurence seemed more relaxed in this program than in the short. I do think that this program was less engaging for the crowd, I certainly enjoyed watching Maddie and Evan more and I think both Piper & Paul and Maddie & Evan were far more enjoyable for me, but they're going to win Olympic gold.

Synchronized Twizzles Woman 4+Synchronized Twizzles Man 3

 

[Yossalu]

I'd like to believe the twizzle mistake will make a difference, but I'm so afraid it won't. The judges didn't seem to see something apparent to all the fans.

 

[cheerknithanson]

No. Why.

 

[tulosai]

It's a beautiful program; they skated it very well. I can't be mad if they win but they'll never have my heart like some of the other teams do.

 

[Demandred]

The twizzles were downgraded to level 3 but they still lead in TES currently.

 

[GGFan]

Beautiful edges and extension. I guess that's gonna be the gold medal. I don't feel nearly as strongly about this program as I felt about the ones with his former partner.

 

[Jeanie19]

Laurence/Guillaume. Beautiful outfits and a beautiful program. Wonderful skate.

 

[readernick]

Amazing skating skills and I've always loved her skating so much, but I thought that was a bit off throughout. If they judges want to, they can still give them the gold but it wasn't the skate of the night for sure.

 

[Ares]

A little bobble here or there from the French. Wonderful still but ... can Americans beat them?

 

[16Olympics]

That tech will come down won't it?

 

[Ichatdelune]

... This is going to be such a disgrace

 

[Sabsi]

Please don't

 

[freedomlover]

they might, just MIGHT win this on PCS and the American outrage would be crazy. I thinkkkk this is the bock gold

 

[Paulipau]

Yeap, gold is French. They are just better, nothing more nothing less

 

[cheerknithanson]

Why.

 

[museksk8r]

Guess I picked up on more mistakes than the judges; I usually do.

 

[yelyoh]

That better not win.

 

[cheerknithanson]

I'm not happy.

 

[freedomlover]

Germans saying they're winning on PCS right now oh boiiiiiii. tech specialists still fighting oh boiiiiiii
