This also happened last week with second place US dance team. They lost because of a spin that was choreographed wrong. ( I am a Brown Stan.. So I would be lying if I pretend to be really sad). Ice dance is complicated. However, technical panels should catch this stuff domestically and coaches should know the rules.
I understand that we are talking about this episode?
Thank you for this. Now I am armed for when mom inevitably calls me with the conspiracy theories. I might be able to break it through to her after maybe 20-40 minutes of lament. She adores K/ASliding on two knees is only permitted during a choreographed slide sequence, so anywhere else in a program would be considered a fall, apparently worse so in the middle of a choreo step sequence, hence the double ding of low goe and a double fall. That’s a basic choreography error and the someone should have caught that before now.
Before I leave, I would also like to take the opportunity to wish all the best to Angelina and Ilia.
Although I know that some of you will be groaning when you find out the FD music they are using, please don't let that influence you. There is a reason why his music is used a lot. It is a beautiful piece, and no doubt the skating will be beautiful too. Hey, they were absolutely brilliant yesterday when using music that was not to everybody's taste. So, I expect them to be brilliant with this too.

Completely agree - they have a choreographed slide near the end so I don’t know how they didn’t realise the slide in the CSS wouldn’t be allowed.Sliding on two knees is only permitted during a choreographed slide sequence, so anywhere else in a program would be considered a fall, apparently worse so in the middle of a choreo step sequence, hence the double ding of low goe and a double fall.

One knee slide is probably permitted as catweel on one hand is. The movement is not considered as a fall unless majority of body weight is on the ice surface ('supported by the ice surface'). What this couple did is sadly considered as a fall.I am not a dance expert, but I can read. The ISU guidelines are fairly clear. The issue here was both knees were sliding at the same time. The same rules apply to hands touching the ice. You have certain situations like a choreo slide move where hands and both knees may touch the ice. Any other time constitutes a fall. They unfortunately did it during a step sequence. One knee slides as far as I know are okay, but someone may correct me, I don’t think they would have gotten the deduction and fall, if they did a one knee slide.
Being in a judge position, i would interpret it as an 'intentional fall' which serves the choreography/story, so i wouldn't deduct in GOE that much, or i wouldn't deduct in GOE at all Being in a tech panel i need to classify it as any other fall and deduct for it.Also regarding the GOEs they were given -1 to -5 across the board. The rules dictate a fall by both skaters drops the GOE to a maximum of -4, so theoretically they could have had -4 to -5 for the entire choreo step sequence. Double dinging for a fall, that’s another topic altogether though. Both the Canadians and Russians skated magnificently, too bad Krylova’s team missed that one.
