To be fair, D/F gets the levels -- including level 4 twist with some regularity. And I believe K/O have missed levels in the past, that's something John Coughlin noted during nationals.

The difference was primarily in TES, not PCS.

Ok, finished the recording of the ladies on Ice Network and am just joining this comp. Sounds like I didn't miss much. Hope the Chinese kick *** tonight.

(Also, there are some free links to the Chinese streams, I think... check the beginning of the thread).

Just checked, and those Chinese streams are showing Ice Hockey at the moment, I'm afraid.

Well, all I know is that I'm understanding much of what the woman is saying, but not the guy :laugh:
If she's not speaking Russian, it's something close. He either has a very strong accent I can't comprehend, or not Russian. But even with Russian commentators on the Russian streams, some I understand much better than others.

You're right. I thought it was the male commentator they said was speaking Kazakh. But I didn't want to make an eejit out of myself and risk saying it the wrong way round!

Where's the KPop gone???!!!

If it's any comfort to whoever wants the Chinese commentary: It's not very good anyway. Lots of rule explanations that most of us probably won't need. ;)

I quite like the idea of bilingual commentary :)

Yes--I think if they can all manage to stay together, they and D/F could push each other to greater success.

(Mrs. P, my question is relevant to this point ... not trying to just gossip.)

Are Kayne and O'Shea dating? They seem to have a really strong friendship -- he was very supportive as she recovered from surgery, and they seem to spend a lot of their free time together. (His tweets about her during the Super Bowl were very funny.)

If so, they would make a very cute couple ... and I hope that their relationship would help their skating partnership endure. I enjoy watching them. :)

I found a CCTV one that was awfully choppy. The KazSport one seems to be the best quality

Yes, guys, on KazSport woman comments on Russian and man on Kazakh. And it's not only FS, but mostly all other competitions is commented on 2 languages

We're allowed to ask/say if it's confirmed people are dating I think... we just aren't allowed to speculate on it beyond that.

To me today S/K just weren't convincing. But I do appreciate that so far it's technically the best we've seen.

No major errors. Good skate.

Unfortunately, they don't make me feel anything. :slink: Especially the dance-y bit... compared to what P/T did in the SP, it had nowhere the chemistry and tenderness.

Good performance! I think they have the least-interesting program if the 3 American couples here, though.
