What was the twizzle problem? I think Scott sumed it up best when he said "I don't even care" in relation to their marks. After all they've been through...good on them!

That was a very respectable showing from V/M, I'm glad my feed decided to work just in time for it! Really enjoyed that, and to me they seemed to get more confident as it went. Not perfect, but definitely better than at 4CC.
But holy cow what a high score...99.98??

it really annoys me that if a North American team wants to be on the top most rung of the podium they have to lose their true personalities and mimick what's been done before (emotions wise)... Shae and Victor did it, and it seems Tanith and Ben have decided that's what they need, too.
I honestly didn't feel that it was THEM... if that makes sense.

B/A program I found really boring, although I did like that one lift where she was in a full split. Messy ending.

he stumbled a little on the end. But that could be me being picky...

Yeah, I thought B/A seemed a bit tentative. Of course, this program is just like their OD, flat and a little boring (to me, at least). Linichuk doesn't seem like a very creative choreographer.
B/A
She's channeling Krylova, he';s channeling Averbuch
Smooth if far apart on circ footwork
twizzles good
Difficult combo lift
ok spin - standard positions
head grabbing
Nice SL lift
Ok curve lift
Good power here
ok on sl footwork
They sure like those low dipping moves don't they?
Randomly skating around
Wild last lift
I don't know. That wasn't a difficult as V&M. Choreography wasn't as unique. It was powerful, just a little hit and miss for me.

Beautiful!
Yeah, I'm sure at this point they knew they had no shot at gold and after their supremely frustrating year hampered by Tessa's surgery and recovery, they were skating a lot for themselves. I think it's pretty amazing to see that they even got to world level so fast this season. I think this season will be character-building for them. I can't wait for next year when they can actually train properly for the Olympics.

IT makes perfect sense to me, Tanith and Ben used to have such fun and creative programs that has a slight humor element in it and they looked like they were having such fun out there. I loved the Elvis routine !
Now there is no humor or fun element in their skating anymore-its like a big piece of what made them so special is gone......

Oh, did it looked like bashing ??
Sorry !!!
Not at all, I do understand her problem, I hope she heals completely, and I do think it's amazing that they're here and performing well.
But this wasn't close to their best.
