Thanks for the link! Finally had time to look at these - Mae-Berenice is definitely bringing it all together this year!

Looks like a fall on the opening combination cost Laurine the lead, though, as her slightly higher PCS couldn't make up the difference. I remember hearing a commentator on her IdfF SP (can't remember which one or track the video down, sadly) mention that Laurine was always a 'natural' jumper, meaning that she kind of worked by instinct and when things started to go wrong she didn't have the set of skills she needed to manage it, and what she's been working on with Kori Ade is redeveloping her jump technique so that it's more conscious and controlled. It makes sense to me that the process of learning a new jump technique would make things kind of shaky here and there for a while, until the new stuff gets ground into muscle memory and replaces the old, but it's just a shame for her that it had to happen this year.

So has Marie-Jade got her passport yet?
I presume not, or we would've heard about it on social media

Protocols for the SD : http://www.csndg.org/resultats/ELITES-2017/FE2017_DANSE_SD_Scores.pdf

P/C fell, probably messed up the twizzle, and seeing the PCS it could have been a nervous performance. Exhaustion from the GPF must be catching up to them big time.
The judges scored right along the GP series so that's a good indicator for the couples, instead of throwing high marks everywhere. They need that scoring for team#2 going into the Olys.

Very similar score for L/LG and A/T !

Very similar score for L/LG and A/T !

As A/T are eligible for the Olympics, I suspect there will be a push to put them ahead in the FD.
The FFSG likes to send what looks like their strongest teams to big comps.
So I will be surprised if A/T stay in 3rd.

Mae won ! Both the SP and LP !

Protocols for the Ladies' free skate are up: http://www.csndg.org/resultats/ELITES-2017/FE2017_DAMES_FS_Scores.pdf

I'd say Mae-Berenice has the Olympics on lock! She had one fall, but everything else seems to have been great. Lea Serna placed second in the free skate, which is awesome for her, and Laurine placed third in the FS (no falls, but several underrotations and a tangle on the three-jump combination) and second overall.
