Good skate by SUTO/BOUDREAU-AUDET althought I could do without all of these "La Vie en Rose" for the rest of my life tbh.

I'm also not a huge fan of Julie Marcotte's Pair choreo in general. I think it lacks something, can't really pinpoint what, maybe a bit of refinement?

In fairness to this pair, they are BRAND new.

Good luck to Ryom and Kim! I am excited to see a North Korean pair out there :) Hopefully they can get a new PB :cheer:

Marissa and Mervin took a big step up, landing their SBS sals, good for them. But they didn't really look like PAIRS sals, iffy and out of sync.

This North Korean couple has better fashion sense than 90% of skaters :eeking:

Yaaaay they got the TES minimum for Worlds! They were really close at their Senior B so I am glad they did get it here :thumbsup: I do wonder if they'll be able to do anything it it this year though :(

I liked the North Korean pair, they show real promise. Now I have to go find out where they train and what their story is. I can't recall seeing a pair skate for North Korea (but then my memory isn't what it used to be). :)

I know, right? I find them quite lovely generally... I am glad they have gotten to go to a few competitions this year and hope we'll see more of them next- they really are on par with a lot of the b level European teams in my opinion.

Really nice, especially their lines and grace. I love how she smiles when she lands the jumps, very pretty.
