2017 GP Rostelecom Cup Pairs SP

[tulosai]

Now to see if my baby will finally cooperate to let me watch an entire segment of a figure skating event...

 

[ancientpeas]

why do I always think the Austrian pair broke up last year? I think I'm confusing them with the German pair for some reason.

They are romantically involved, I think a split is unlikely. They do seem frustrated with results this season though, might retire after Olys. Just a hunch though.

One of my cats jumped up 2 times during the men's and once during dance and shut down feeds. Just be grateful your baby can't disconnect your internet..yet.

The forum is back to normal speed. Has they fixed the tech issues or is the Pairs event just not as popular? There are no non Russian big names here.

Do you remember which team broke up last year near the end of the year? I remember people saying the break up was strange.

Yup, you're probably thinking of Vartmann/Blommaert.

I don't know. I'd say pairs is not as popular, but dance usually isn't either. On the other hand, we're just coming back from the opening ceremony rather than men's sp with Yuzu skating so maybe?

That's them! Thanks. I keep thinking its this Austrian pair and then I'm confused and think they changed their mind. It's like a mind fart I'm having.

[xeyra]

Okay, yay, in time for Pairs.

But the Shibs were in the Dance, plus another American team, whereas there are no non Russian big names in Pairs.

I never noticed before by S/B-A have a lot of ungainly arm choreo in there.

Lovely costumes for the Japanese pair- but Team Japan usually has nice costumes across all disciplines.

A little off on the step sequence, but overall not bad
