Excellent! Good for them!

Carolina and Francesco look so elegant, and their twizzles were beautifully synchronised today! I really like their lift, and her joy during/after it.

A bit of a let down after that superb performance by Charlene and Marco, but Carolina and Francesco actually did really well. I still enjoyed it a lot. Nice little competition.

Lucrezia. I love her red dress. She started strong, but a few costly mistakes. But I really like her.

Lara was able to make up the SP deficit and then some. Definitely the deserved winner.

Lucrezia‘s program never really got started and completely unraveled in the second half. Was just one of those days when everything falls apart.

Also just noticed that this is the first major competition with the winner not being in the top 2 after the SP since the Autumn Trophy in late November.

Van Zundert won from 4th, but she got help since Schott withdrew after leading the SP. Everyone moved up a place without doing anything. It’s safe to say she wouldn’t have won without the WD.

So in reality, today is the comeback of the winter.

Anna!!

Chiara and Francesco's free dance is also much improved from Nationals, really looking forward to seeing these guys continue to develop in the future

 

[GoneWithTheWind]

A good performance from Carolina and Francesco too, I do think the second half of the program has much more impact than the first though.

 

[elektra blue]

Carolina and Francesco improved a lot too, but i'm waiting for Charlene and Marco to wake me up

 

[elektra blue]

they didn't wake me up but who cares?

 

[GoneWithTheWind]

Fabulous performance from Charlene and Marco! The layback she gets in that lift is just

 

[GoneWithTheWind]

they didn't wake me up but who cares?

I did wonder if the music of Atonement was really going to wake anybody up, to be honest

the beauty of their skate could awake the deads but i guess i've been a zombie for too long

I'm biased of course but I recall Schott had a terrible FS at Nebelhorn earlier in the season, so I'm not so sure as you are it's safe to say, Van Zundert wouldn't have won without the WD.
