[Sabsi]

Noooooooooo

[tulosai]

What a great crowd.

 

[CellarDweller]

Ugh.

 

[ramurphy2005]

At least they have the team event skate.

 

[LazyFuzai]

This event not looking good for now

 

[ruffledgrouse]

With broadcasters' time slot requests and both short track and figure skating using the same rink has got to lead to tremendously difficult scheduling, that I understand, but still the schedule we got is bad and people should really reconsider for 2030

At least the ladies have the normal day in between

Ugh, the jumps are not jumping today for KamO. But the crowd is supportive, and Danny just looks happy to be here <3

 

[yelyoh]

She always looks so tense before they skate. She shouldn't be left alone w her thoughts.

 

[freedomlover]

Oh dear.

It's not Ellie's day.

she held on to the landings in the TE but his throws are just bad.

 

[flanker]

Kam/O'Shea close to disaster skate unfortunately...

 

[Jammers]

Well at least K/O had great skates when it counted will always be Olympic Gold medalists.

 

[bartlebooth]

Another Team Event hero being drained?

 

[Ichatdelune]

And how do you explain Pireira/Michaud?

Them being good? I'm just thinking that the fatigue could've played a role, all the power for P/M for not letting it get to them

 

[ruffledgrouse]

At least they have the team event skate.

The more important one, IMO, since it was their best shot a medal

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

Well Sara & Niccolo and Ellie & Danny did their best in the team event and both walked away with Olympic medals. They are Olympic medallists, and nothing can take that away from them. I'm sure fatigue played some role in the rough skates for these two teams, but Sara & Niccolo are coming back from injury and Ellie & Danny have always struggled with consistency, so I don't think we can blame the messy skates entirely on the team event. Regardless, they both still fought to the end of their respective programs.

 

[EdgeCall]

They gave it all to secure the gold for their team, they had not enough left for themselves.

 

[elektra blue]

Rinky challenged aunt Rosalia and now i'm throwing her parmigiana at it, it had it coming. (my aunt parmigiana is deep fried. twice.)

 

[Paulipau]

Danny never lost his smile, he just kept skating beautifully and confidently supporting Ellie.

K/O she steps out of 3T and has a bad fall on the 3S, Throw 3Lutz - she falls. I’m sure most people did not have C/H as the highest placing US team at the Olympics, but here we are. K/O are Olympic champions and have had their Olympic moment in the team event; a shame it couldn’t happen for them in the individual event. This team has such dynamic lifts and this performance notwithstanding, they have a lot to be proud of for what they accomplished at this Olympics. That was their 4th Olympic skate and obviously, they are tired. Great job, overall!

 

[NanaPat]

Is anyone else CBC stream a bit choppy today?

It's OK for me. I'm on gem on a computer.
