FB/C and C/B will need to fight for this with every fiber of their being; it's gonna be tight. They make it look easy but appearing uber seamless is pretty hard especially for a new pairing under pressure. It's pretty close so may the best skate, really win. Looking forward to the lively...

I think they themselves see silver as their ceiling for the individual event. Why else do both aspects of the Team Comp? It doesn't spell sense for me. They are 33 and 36; Zingas and Kolesnik could easily have substituted for them. IMHO, C/B see FB/C in practice probably every day, so maybe...

Who saw THAT coming?

Watching this RD event feels like punishment. Edit: But now the tide may be turning, right? These are the better teams. :cheer2:

Lilah and Lewis brought it this year with the material and gusto. P/P not so much. They played it too safe, so unless F/G mess up, they will be off that podium. They just seem a bit dated, as does Gui/ Fab.

Question, did France choose to not enter the FD portion of the team event, or did the team not earn enough points to perform on Day 2.

Look, all that was expected of her was silence. Private matters could remain private. Trust me, women are currently married to murderers and rapists. A simple "no comment" would have sufficed. She is his girlfriend, meaning she only knows one side of him. They are all working together in the...

When speaking about flexibility I was referring to Lawrence not Evan. Their Vogue doesn't have the sass and irreverence that Gabby would have coloured it with. The couples are somewhat similar in terms of frame and flower, but I found C/B more engaging than FB/Ciz. As per skating skills, when...

Maddie and Evan really stepped up the technique to match the artistry. FB/C have a solid technique but very little emotions, flexibility and ease of movement. That's all. Gabby, if you read this just know, you're not so easy to replace. Special mention: the Brits were on fire though. On to...

Hmm indeed. Need we anymore evidence to support Gabby's claims?

It's all quite irrelevant now, I feel. People are now reading the actual book, and they're beginning to understand the narrative. The book is about enduring in a difficult job that you love, but fundamental inequalities took their toll. She's not writing the book to accuse anyone, but rather...

Maybe that's why I find their skating technically impressive but empty. They lack heart.

Class acts. That is why they will always be the GOATS. They hit the nail on the head, the lack of sensitivity coming from both the IAM camp as well as Guillame Cizeron. Thank you very, very much! If there were any real empathy from that camp there would have been silence when it mattered and...

Agree 100%.

Precisely. They, journalists, seem to spend an inordinate amount of time advocating for him, rather than picking up on the overall theme of unbalanced power dynamics. The patriarchy reigns absolutely. If we've endured, how dare you complain vibes.
