During the Junior GP Series, there were a couple of Indian skaters that were competing in Singles who also compete together in Ice Dance. They were way off the standard of the rest of the field in their respective categories, but they were absolutely loving it! They never stopped smiling!

This couple we have today are not going to trouble the top scorers either. (I should add, they were better than the younger skaters I was talking about). But, they were absolutely loving it too!

Although, Aldrin's smile dropped when she saw the score.

Oh, and can I just add: Aldrin is so beautiful!

I agree! They really looked proud to be there and had a great time. As he said ' it felt like it ended so quickly'. Really good looking team as well.

Props to Japan for providing a live stream of the event! But there needs to be more spectators... betting there will be a LOT more for tomorrow!

Winnie_20 · Feb 23, 2017

I thought there would be a livestream on youtube, too, but I can only find them for the free programs?
Fortunately the stream on the website works, too.
I'm stuck in trains for the next few hours, but unlimited internet, so nice timing!

OK, I think the standings at the end of the first group are something like this:

CHEN Hong / ZHAO Yan (CHN) lead with 59.something
MORI Ibuki / SUZUKI Kentaro (JPN) in second with 48.something
MATHEW Aldrin Elizabeth / YAMA Anup Kumar (IND) in third with 10.something

Things are going to ramp up in this second group.

Chen/Zhao beat their 4CC score by 8 points and also reached the ISU TES minimums for the SD. Do AWG scores count towards TES minimums?

I'm hoping for alot more spectators for the ladies event as people will be off work by then. Fingers crossed!!

Matilda and Will were really good.

But such a weird combination of music! :drama:

Who on Earth thought it was a good idea to put Maroon 5's "One More Night" and Adele's "Skyfall" together?!

And the edits between them were awful! :eek:

Seems like a very lenient judging panel... almost everyone is smashing their TES by a couple of points...

Agreed! Odd music choices and bad edits but better than 4CC. A question Caro....Any word if Clara has had any luck finding a pair partner?

Winnie_20 · Feb 23, 2017

LOL, was thinking the same thing about the music, very odd combination. :scratch2:

Liked this next pair!
Not too sure about the commentary... He doesn't seem to be saying anything about the actual skating?

CaroLiza_fan · Feb 23, 2017

Unsurprisingly, WANG Shiyue / LIU Xinyu go into the lead with 66.something

They were definitely a different level to everybody before them.

The question is will either of the two remaining couples upstage them?

I liked them too! What stream are you watching with commentary Winnie?

She's still doing Singles this season. So, I guess she has had no joy.

Not surprised, really. There are not many boys skating in singles on this island. And I can't imagine many experienced foreigners wanting to switch to representing a very small country with a skater who, although very experienced in Singles, is brand new to Pairs skating.

Damn! I was very keen to see how she would do in pairs. Great flair and love of skating when she performs!

Ladies begin in about an hour, right?

peese · Feb 23, 2017

The rink is starting to fill up! I believe we will have a good crowd for the ladies when they start in 40 minutes!

3. CHEN Hong / ZHAO Yan, CHN
4. LEE Hojung / KAM Richard kang in, KOR

Thank you!!!!!! :bow:

I'm going to watch on there for the rest of the event because of the commentary.

Because, when you are without commentary and livescoring, it is VERY easy to get lost!
