Oh dear. Oh, they look so sad

 

[moriel]

ouch not a good skate... Unless other teams bomb the FS, i think no medal chances really?

 

[TMC]

Cracking music choice!

 

[Princessroja]

Not a good skate for Ustimkina/Volodin either. Aussies' and Chinese's chances of medals just went way up.

A couple mistakes, so I'm guessing out of top 3 too?

SP: 30.65+23.98 = 54.63, 4/16

 

[Tastetherainbow]

U/V 5 points behind in TES...

And I remember a lot of people were saying that the Russians were going to sweep the podium... granted it's only the SP... but this just shows that ice is always slippery!

Great job!

I wonder if Liu/Johnson can pull off a miracle and medal.

 

[Mango]

So Russia, China, and Australia go 1-2-3. Interesting! And not entirely predictable.

[Princessroja]

[TMC]

Small medal for Ekaterina/Harley!! Yay!!! :hap93:

Super happy for them!!!

 

[olayolay]

What happened to Duskova/Bidar? Didnt they skate in the JGPF?

 

[karne]

Let us hope that Katia and Harley finish the job in the FS!

goodnight, everyone!

They're doing senior worlds this year in hopes of an Olympic spot.

I wonder if Liu/Johnson can pull off a miracle and medal.

I'm afraid I'm hoping for a different kind of miracle...

I don't think any Australian skater has won a Junior World medal, ever.

Fair enough. I hope Ekaterina and Harley make history as well! They're more likely to medal.

I was rooting for them to get 60. Like what's wrong with 0.18 more besides taking over 2nd place! It deserved it IMO.

Pressure will be high then! I hope they can keep it together in the LP. It would be lovely to see someone other than Russia, Canada or China on podium in pairs

 

[olayolay]

What are Katia's chances of getting Australian citizenship in time for the Olympics? It'd be a shame if they couldn't go - they have a great story.
