Ice Dance - Free Dance

[blue_idealist]

PJ doesn't like I/K's program, but I actually think it's pretty nice.

 

[Spun Silver]

Kaitlyn seems like a really nice person. I never see anyone say that, people on forums seem to think she's some nasty diva. I guess it's a book-cover thing.

Surprising score for P/B for that workmanlike performance.

I'm glad to know that about K since I'm now their fan!
And P/B within 5 points of D/W... :disapp:

 

[Violet Bliss]

So much preemptive complaining with D/W sitting in first with a big margin.

 

[kosjenka]

Swedish stream just switched programs for me.
thank god for russian tv

I heard the nasty diva thing about Kaitlyn too.. but hopefully she actually is nice lol.. I think PB deserved bronze!!

P/B gets a season's best with that cautious performance, while D/W is way off their SB with a spectacular one... Yeah, no, the judges aren't being tough across the board. Davis/White is getting lowballed for some reason.

Is it possible that at earlier competitions they were given higher scores than they deserved? There have been other couples who have also received lower scores here than their Season's Bests.

So much pre-emptive complaining with D/W sitting in first with a big margin.

5 points off their season's best after arguably their best performance and other teams getting very generous marks: the handwriting--it's on the wall. I would love to be wrong.

 

[Mrs. P]

Why does I/K look so disappointed? They got their season's best!

 

[Serious Business]

Here's a shocking stat: this FD score is the second lowest of D/W's this season. It's only slightly higher than their 4CC FD score, and that they were pretty off there.

Oh look, we have yet another SB in a row. Somebody somewhere must've sent out a memo saying that Davis/White needs to be scored less.

this is true...seems like they have an agenda for final standings, but as a whole, judging in all disciplines is just wacky this season (especially at these worlds)...
never mind the weird mistakes EVERYONE seems to be making...
I just want to see what's going to happen to V/M b/c I just don't get their FD program...like it seems too superficial and their characters and performance just seems forced...they've been trying so hard all season to "sell" their programs and what they do, that i'm just not buying it...Funny Face just doesn't work for them, but that's JMO

 

[mskater93]

Mrs. P: Because their likely ending position and R/T will add up to a total of 14 (2 Russian dance teams next year)

 

[lavender]

V/M will win. This is the most predictable outcome except I didn’t expect the Shibutani’s to be so low. Kind of boring for me...but that's just me.

 

[icebeauty]

So much preemptive complaining with D/W sitting in first with a big margin.

it's more about the consistency of their marks...

Scott Moir, perhaps?

 

[fairly4]

yep and notice how in last group only d/w didin't get personally best so far. oh i mean americans.

 

[Tesla]

I expect a SB for V/M. Ugh.

 

[Irishflip]

W/P were so emotional, i loved their skate it was phenomenal i really was surprised that they didn't beat P/B at least in the free dance. Not even in PCS??!!! Honestly :disapp:

 

[Whitneyskates]

I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but so far everyone in this group has gotten a season's best, except D/W.

 

[icebeauty]

Scott Moir, perhaps?

BAHAHAHAAAA
