And btw, Sophia and Livio are competing today

I'm so glad they could do it now, as they had to WD last year.

 

[yesterday]

Sophia and Livio got 52.21 (29.00 + 24.21 // 6.05 6.00 6.15 // 1.00)
for their SP, this could be a new PB?
they are 5th of 11 pairs.

-1 was a fall on the Sal Throw.
Level 4 for the spin!
Lv 3 for the steps
spral, lift and twist lv 2.

could only watch that now, saw it on youtube when it got published

So, FS at Pairs Challenge was a bit of a set back for Sophia and Livio
but my understanding is that they upped their technical content and are maybe still adjusting.

FS: 83.47 (43.61 + 42.86 // 5.40 / 5.10 / 5.55 // 3.00), 10th of 11
total 8th with 135.68 - still a new PB

So they started with a triple twist (!) but it lacked quality (ofc), had a fall on the sbs Toes, missed the combo on the Sal, did a stellar lift, had a fall on the Lo Throw, had an okay lift, death spiral got lv 2, fall on the second throw (sal), another nice lift, and a good pair spin at the end.

6 elements minus GOE, 5 elements 0 or plus.
Throws and jumps were all triple, no doubles here (except for maybe the missed combo part).
Lifts declined in levels the longer the program goes (4-3-2).

Thanks so much for the detailed update! Excited to see Sophia and Livio further improving and upping their tech content.

[yesterday]

So, as we now have both programs, some things I noticed (apart from the scores and tech content)

Livio now got a shirt to match the purple dress and the other way round Sophia got a new black dress for the FS they kept.
It's not very good to see but I think they now have some new positions in the lift (FS)?
Esp. the second throw fall in the FS looked weird, I hope Sophia is okay. She finished like a boss, considering that.
FS music is ofc still the same old whining pop song, but it's their comfort zone atm and they do well with PCS on those, so I'll take it.

Happy birthday Sophia!

 

[yesterday]

Mark said today that Daniel has problems with a foot injury and did not know if he could compete in Budapest. Considering that, the SP outcome was okay and I hope he can do a full free (maybe with easier jumps) and if not, they should not risk it.
