2021 Russian Nationals Pairs FS

[PRlady]

I’m actually missing A/B during this program.....

 

[Immortelle]

Ted. You LITERALLY just have to repeat how the Russian announcer says their names. Why are you like this.

I think I preferred it when he kept it on a first name basis for the Russian skaters!

 

[Hanna]

Well that was a lackluster ending, about 10 seconds too early.

Kadyrova/Balchenko

My find of the pair event.

-high clean 3tw
-little off sync in 3f and hand down for one of them
-ooh, and a fall on the 3fth
-3s-1r-3s better
3rth, struggle on landing, but no fall this time

I really like this team. They bring good energy to the program and have excellent carriage. They kinda fill the hole that Efimova/Korovin left. Hope they can become more consistent.

 

[Immortelle]

Do we have an award on the board for Best Program with Evil Laughter?

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

He heard you guys

I think he heard you!

 

[rfisher]

Who knows. Maybe Appolinariia won't need any stupid SBS triples.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Ahaha, Ted must be reading FSU - he just apologized for mispronouncing so many names!

 

[PRlady]

Ted just apologized to us.

 

[Vagabond]

Ted lived through the 1970s but still pronounces David Bowie's last name as if the first syllable rhymes with "cow".

Ted just apologized to the Russian fans for mispronouncing last names. I presume that Bowie is one of those names.

 

[Hanna]

We should!

I think he heard you!

He reads FSU for sure.

Kadyrova/Balchenko have alk the elements and no programme. Will they be punished for spending 40sec in their final pose?
Mishina/Galiamov really hate the nationals. Or do they peak in Sptember and it's a downhill from there? Do they mean business or just something Moskvina needs to motivate BoikovaKozlovski and nothing further?

They're going for the top accolade of the season: MEEPOTS. Sadly, quantity is not rewarded over quality.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

I don't' know why they think the tree ornaments are so fascinating.

 

[rfisher]

I don't' know why they think the tree ornaments are so fascinating.

I'm kind of fascinated by them by this point. It's like watching a fake fireplace.

But where would be the fun in that. Stubbornly insisting on saying Tuberezi instead of Tutberidze is better fun, and there is nothing anyone can do about it!

They were pretty consistent throughout the whole season. I think this is their worst skating, if we don’t count the test skates at the beginning of the season, when they clearly were not in competitive shape yet. I think possibly the pressure to get on the national team may have played some role in their mistakes.

I have been wondering the same thing. And why blue and silver? Here the colors would most probably would be a nod to a religiously mixed couple. As in if I put blue stuff on the tree it can be Christian and Jewish.

Now, I'm nervous for the final four. I may have to watch through my fingers.

Dima is a bigger diva than any of the women.

 

[Wyliefan]

Dmitri, you utter drama queen.

 

[AxelAnnie]

I am worried about B/K. He looks pissed and she looks a bit lost.

 

[Hanna]

Dmitri, you utter drama queen.

He is very particular about his bows.

 

[Vagabond]

Ted just read out an e-mail message from a Singles skater named Michelle.

 

[Hanna]

Could Trankov look any more hipster.

 

[umronnie]

Who designs Evgenia's dresses and why does he hate boobs?

 

[Immortelle]

So many people watching in my hometown! I’m not the only one planning to stay awake until stupid o’clock

 

[PRlady]

Our Tv needs a new motherboard so I’m watching on my big monitor which I moved to living room coffee table. Which means curled up on sofa with cat. No sooner did skaters started warming up, he moved right in front of screen to watch....

 

[rfisher]

I always wonder if Daria is actually paying attention to Denis pre-skate pep talk.
