2 big mistakes - nice qualities on the other elements, though...

What happened to this team, they seem to be regressing

 

[labgoat]

They are funded by the police.

They should skate to The Police - Every step you take...I'll be watching

 

[SnowWhite]

Side by side jumps need to be scored seperately There is no difference if one of the team or both falls in this current scoring system.

If both fall they get two fall deductions instead of one

They are about to retire.

 

[EdgeCall]

Yes literally. Carrying trash from kitchen. Broke nothing but majorly tore skin off my shin to where well, it looks gross and will take time to heal.

At least it is nothing serious. Get well soon!

 

[Totentanz]

If both fall they get two fall deductions instead of one

Yes but the scoring of individual element is the same I think?

 

[cathlen]

Micheal, please, solid lifts

 

[Seven Sisters]

Nicole is very upset and that is hard to see. Please don’t be so hard on yourself, Nicole

 

[SnowWhite]

I think the problem with scoring sbs jumps separately is that if one partner was a much stronger jumper, I think some teams would just plan content that only one could do. Like intentional one does 3T-2T (or 2T-2T) and one does 3T-3T, for the points. And that wouldn't be very pairs focused.

maybe it won't look this bad tomorrow, anyway if you feel you need stitches go to the ER. i hope it just looks worst than it actually is

That makes sense... tiny 161 cm Charlene doesn't seem like someone who'd typically choose to be a police officer

the minimum is 160 (i considered sometime ago, when i was younger, my dad is a retired policeman anyway)

 

[coldblueeyes]

No. Just no.

 

[TT_Fin]

Skating Gods went somewhere after the first group?

 

[lariko]

Yes but the scoring of individual element is the same I think?

I guess they don’t want to potentially double the mark for jumps plus GoE for each vs other elements

 

[figureskatingandrainbows]

This group is a yiiiiiiikes

 

[rollerblade]

Unfortunately this group has the potential to do much worse than the first one.

You got it right.

 

[Hyena]

Kirsten and Michael's twist always makes me jump...really small/short throw today too.

 

[EdgeCall]

Skating Gods went somewhere after the first group?

I hope they are just taking a good rest before the ladies.

 

[yume]

That's why sometimes i stay away from pairs as would like to stay away from men.

 

[LadyB]

i can hear @LadyB screaming

You heard right!
