2017 GP Rostelecom Cup Pairs FS

[marigolds]

I don't imagine they'll move up, barring some other pair having a disaster. [emoji20]

They don't look very together. Most of the warmup they've been skating separately. Weird.

I vote for PogoFalls.

Everything she does is magic

I vote for PogoFalls.

PogoFalls, I have to watch that with my eyes close. Poor thing!

I wonder if Mervin and Marissa have considered skating for Canada next quad? Citizenship is much easier to get here than the US and they train in Montreal so residency won't be a problem. With both D/R and I/M almost certainly retiring they'd probably be able to place here. Dual citizenship is your friend Marissa. It doesn't seem like the USFGA has a lot of interest in them.

With how they're skating I'm not sure Canada will have much interest in them either, retirements or no

 

[kevinVchicago]

First part of that lift looked so uncomfortable

 

[nimi]

Oh no it's the same lift mistake they had in Nebelhorn, right?

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Sumires position on that lift had me wondering if something went wrong.

 

[ancientpeas]

I have come to hate the Across the Universe soundtrack. Why not use the beatles?

 

[Anni234]

Oh my god...Tarasova/Morozov is skating to...Candyman???!!!!!!!

I managed to watch half of the program the last time they skated. The program is awful.

 

[MalAssada]

My stream has a 5 second delay on sound, but at least it isn't freezing every few seconds for minutes.

 

[MaiKatze]

I think Tarasova and Morozov should try "Macarena" for their FS next season.

Noooo....that's the equivalent of....Sui/Han skating to 'Blurred Lines'! (GS needs a puke-emoji)

 

[bixby]

Really impressed by Marchei and Hotarek how they've grown in pairs. Looking forward to their performance.

Well.. after MTM/MM the ground is pretty thin. I like R/W but I'm not sure about the rest.

I just don't think they have any chance in the US if you look at how they are being shuffled.

Hoping Marissa and Marvin skate a good one for goodness sake. I just don't see any improvement at all every time I see them compete. What do they do in practice, practice falling? My patience has ran out already. I thought they were promising, now it's embarrassing to see them fall on their solo jump. It happens all the time like it's almost predictable.

Yesterday they fell on the throw, a throw salchow no less, so the issues are not isolated to just the jumps.

If anyone ever skates to Blurred Lines this will be the end of my relationship with figure skating

But to be fair, they haven't given USF a reason to get behind them. They need to LAND THOSE DARN JUMPS. If they went out and skated lights out at every event and made the podium USF would change their tune. Both of them are too talented to skate the way they are right now. Nobody trains hard every day to skate below potential.

Is this "let's see how many Beatles songs we can put in one program" porgram? UGH.
