Just a bit over an hour to go. This Free will be the real blood bath of Worlds

Just a bit over an hour to go. This Free will be the real blood bath of Worlds

Just finished watching the Rhythm Dance in Russian. The dodgy Fuji TV stream hasn't been working at all for me this time round. Hope there's an English or Japanese-language stream (or no commentary, even) for the ladies.

 

[StephenGfan]

what time is group 7 on? I'm on Eastern standard time

 

[satine]

what time is group 7 on? I'm on Eastern standard time

You mean Group 4, the last group? 7:30 for warm-up

 

[Noxchild]

Good luck to Rika and Kaori and everyone else. Skate your hearts out!

 

[brens78]

Arrives to the party and what a party it's gonna be!!! ( yes Karne and Moose no issues tonight with streaming lol )

I'm so torn with who I want to see win and podium, my heart is in for Alina winning to redeem herself after the disaster last year and the last major prize she hasn't won or podium placed. Rika on the other hand, this season's new star and has the dynamite to win after a bad SP. So torn and who knows, maybe Evgenia could pull out something truly amazing or Kaori could use her disappointment of the 4CC to fire herself up!

The excitement!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Been doing yoga for the last 40 minutes to try to calm down, no still feel like throwing up and/or hyperventilating... I'll try to keep quiet

Ow Robin Cousins on the BBC is going in on Natasha McKay saying she needs better jumps.

With a 2lz 2lo I kinda get him. Disappointed she’s not going for the 3Lz.

 

[anonymoose_au]

It's starting!

And wow Li'l Bet is last up, any bets on if she'll try her Quad? That could blow everyone's predictions appart!

Good luck Natasha!

 

[Ichatdelune]

Saint-Saens is quite popular this season

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I'm a bad person. As nobody else was on air from the start, I put on the World Feed stream onto the computer and started watching it.

Since I know that Eurosport always starts with old pictures and then goes to a break after a few minutes, I continued watching the World Feed, but with it's audio muted and the audio from Eurosport on the TV going the background.

Once the adverts came on, I switched the TV from the satellite to the terrestrial to see if the BBC were on air yet. Robin Cousins was talking. But as soon as he stopped talking and Kat Downes started, I switched back to Eurosport and watched the World Feed until the adverts ended.

Sorry Robin, but I don't want to be put into a bad mood at this early stage of the day.

[satine]

I'll always have flashbacks.

Ah, well.

Not too bad to start!

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Good morning So ready for the FS. I have to go again in before it all ends, so I will probably have to catch ut with the last group later.

 

[DSQ]

It’s a real shame because Robin is good.
