Mark Hanretty and Tonia Kwiatkowski
Thanks for posting those GOEs for Amber's combo. 0 to -5. So it cost her a point? Am I reading that correctly? She turns fast so its hard to catch the UR without stop action. How much would a UR cost her if it was caught?Amber's 3A was not executed well, so of course she received negative GOE.
Amber's 2nd jump in her combo was not executed well, so of course she received a q and negative GOE.

I couldn't care less who is pro Amber or con Amber. All I care about is accurate scoring. They did their job.

As for Selevko? I've replayed it 4 times. His performance level is really something and that 4T is a humdinger. Great height. And only a few men could perform to Prince's music that well.
Mark is a nice person. Tonia thinks she gets paid by the word.
They talk much less than Tara and Johnny. At least to me. Maybe Tania is still getting the hang of when to shut up? Shrug.
broke my heart. waxels are my nemesis as a skating fan

Normally I don't get into this sort of discussion, but what I seemed to see, not live so there was a camera angle involved, was her looking for his knee and trying to bend her head back lower to satisfy the required depth that way, since she couldn't get her body any lower. He then rose up just enough in his pivot position to raise his knee slightly above her head. Except then his knee wasn't high enough in relation to his hip.....it looked like they were both struggling to adjust their positions relative to each other but each could only manage an inch or so.
Oh, they're both very nice, and I do appreciate they don't talk much during the program. That's the most important. thing. It's just so nonstop. I've gotten so spoiled with watching non-commentary streams!
I know, right? Yuma's clever dancy SP is my absolute favorite this season. It is so felel-good entertaining. What a shame about the freak accident.
and it looked awful
M/B 'consistently' produce the ugliest DS in the world, on this occasion they managed to surpass themselves - it was the ugliest in the whole universe. But the bigger question here is how they are awarded such GOEs and PCS.. for this particular skate with a fall and several other errors (both Anastassia's axels looked at least q to me) they got 69.79 PCS and over 12 points in GOE. Skating for a small federation is sometimes not a bad thing at all...and it looked awful
her axels were downgraded. I am not sure Georgia isn't powerful... it seems like they get plenty of reward for what they put on the ice at times.
in seniors, quotas are not reallocated.
Mama Tut is from there, so...
