[ancientpeas]

Welp, two pairs in and there goes that wish

*sigh* I jinxed them maybe?

The Canadian announcers are so nice, "Things never go exactly as planned. There are always...surprises" lol

Carmen needs to put on the shelf for awhile. Let us miss it and want it back again.

Is this the first season where there are 2 teams with Carmen in pairs (Stolbova/Klimov being the other one)?

Relatively few Carmens (compared to other disciplines) in pairs until now... *sigh*

You and me, babe. Our love is a curse

Brothers. Three are here, but there are four. Matthew is the oldest, then Andrew (who is also competing in ice dance this season), Jordan (who used to compete pairs also), and Ryan (who competes both singles and pairs).

Thanx. I can only imagine the family dinner conversations.

Is this the South Korean pair? I remember really enjoying the NK pair last season

I believe S/K's Carmen is a different avant-garde take. But we may not even see that programme at all.

A couple of rough moments but good job overall!

I enjoyed Koreans. So much joy in their skating.

Yes, they have moments which are quite enjoyable (the first sbs jump for instance), but they really frayed at points. They really need to work on the exits of their elements: they often tend to almost stop and then go on with the program. It's very noticeable.

Go S/B. Stay healthy this year.

this is the first time I am hearing this Woman song and I loooooove it.

Yay! It's the best flight!

I got here just in time!

Is 4neverPoje in the live audience, possibly stalking my husband in the Skaters Only area? :ddevil:

I beleive the Danish ice dancers used it for their 15-16 free. That was when I first noticed them!

I so want Marissa and Mervin to hit their elements so they can get some momentum and confidence. I liked the tension in the music and they actually created some moments. They could build on this.

 

[nimi]

please don't splat Mervissa!!!!!

Oh well... only one sbs splat and one throw splat...

They're sooo gooood and this program is beautiful and has so many wow moments, I just wish they could find consistency in the jump elements...

 

[WeakAnkles]

LOL that's why I love De gustibus non est disputandum... because I loathe that song. Different strokes...

Mervissa. Sigh. They never do get it together with the jumps and they have so many good qualities. I did love the entrance into the death spiral.
