I also wanna add that the "discovery" of Spain and Shanghai as figure skating venues. The audience seemed so nice and supportive of all athletes. It's good to explore new territories instead of just trying to make figure skating popular with north American audiences again.

The Shanghai Worlds audience was good, but I don't like the rink there at all.

Was there something wrong with the rink? I didn't notice anything in the videos.

Wasn't there complaints earlier in the season about air quality in Shanghai being poor and possibly affecting the competition?

A highlight for me was when Gracie had a rough go of it at 4cc and someone threw her that giant bear with candy in a backpack for her. Good move by the fans :yes:
