2018 Grand Prix Final Pairs Short Program

[anonymoose_au]

My mother’s reaction to Rainbow Road (and Plushenko’s Sex Bomb EX): “Drugs were involved.”

Apparently, Mishin came up with Sex Bomb so that is the most hilarious image ever!

OMG PENG AND JIN this programme is so special I love them so much

It's glorious! Although the cameraman missed the sassy leg thing Peng does near the end, that's the best part!

season's best!

?????

It sounds like it's a good job that I've only arrived for the Pairs! Because I don't want to know what you are talking about, or the context in which it came up in the conversation!

Metis had a fun childhood.

 

[CellarDweller]

OH, Mr. Hottie Pants from Italy is on!

My mental image of Mishin and Raf as Statler and Waldorf has been permanently corrupted....

Also, for the last time, use the original INXS or get out.

I don't really like Della Monica and Guarise...
Their skating leaves me feeling empty

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, I am nailing my colours to the mast now - Peng and Jin are going to finish today in the podium positions.

Really wish I had gone with my heart and put them higher in my predictions.

Same, their skating does nothing for me.

I'm usually all for Joe Cocker, but no one can beat Michael Hutchence :sad21:

Peng and Jin :hap93:

I've always been salty about Jin's previous split, but they're so wonderful! So glad to see them skate their best this season here at the GPF. GL in the FS!

 

[Metis]

Same, their skating does nothing for me.

Pairs Matteo is definitely my second favourite currently competing skating Matteo.

 

[gonewiththewind25]

Can someone who knows the technical details explain why their Death Spiral was a Level 4? To me, her head didn't look lower than the knee

 

[oly2018]

Going after Peng and Jin really highlighted the lack of performance for me...

 

[anonymoose_au]

I do love a good catsuit though.

I find it so weird that both the Italians and Aussies picked the same song (different singers, neither INXS sadly) for their short! What are the chances?

 

[Princessroja]

That was fun from D-M/G, but I want more GOEs for that beautifully sync'd spin.

 

[CellarDweller]

Shame about the landing on the throw.

 

[Lota]

Such a shame about the throw, they did more or less well otherwise

 

[GGFan]

Always good to see Matteo :luv17:

 

[Colonel Green]

I like this song, but it feels like it's building to a climax that never actually arrives. The "and they can never tear us apart!" just doesn't go anywhere.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Why is Matteo always such a Mr Stone Face when they skate? And please work on your edges. So much of that step sequence was on the flat on your blade.

Nice to see Nicole smiling after that skate.
