Just watched the videos. Has anyone noticed Jason Brown got much slower this season? It works better with the jumps, but eventually the PCS may suffer.

I think he was just cautious today. He did seem slower than he usually is. I think we'll see improvement in that area as he gets comfortable with his programs.

FWIW, his PCS scores were the highest he's received in the SP ever...

Did I miss something at the end? Was there a mistake?

Ronja and Gustav just seemed to stop and look at each other not knowing what to do. And the audience weren't sure if they were finished or not, and eventually started clapping. Then the skaters decided to bow, and the clapping paused as the audience wondered "what's going on?", and then the applause continued.

So, what was going on?

The next six couples are the last couples to skate seeking Olympic Qualification. It's going to go down to the wire!!
Have the Israeli's done enough to secure their spot....We'll find out and see!

At the moment, the Swedish, Spanish and Turkish teams are out.
The Bulgarian team is currently on the chopping block!
