[Rukia]

2 resurfaces I don't know if I'm this strong

 

[Amy L]

Is that lift gonna count? It looked like the initial entrance failed and they sort of improvised getting it back up.

 

[airgelaal]

That lift was weird

 

[Rukia]

I don't know a lot about pairs but I'll give you my best pbp try

Pereira/Michaud

3tw nice
sbs 3t I think?? his landing edge was kind of funky but I don't think he touched down or anything?
throw pretty good (don't ask me to identify throws their feet are always in the weirdest places haha)
lift I didn't pay attention to because my kids were talking to me
sbs spins are off and on
I mean I guess they are matching the fw to the music but the music drags so eh
death spiral that I think was fine but idk

62.38

 

[Hedwig]

watching them I cannot help but wonder when Flores/Wang will be age-eligible?

 

[Rukia]

Mohkova/Mohkov

oh yes I love this program because it start off with footwork!
3t looked good going into it but she fell
3 tw looked fine
Throw looked very low and she fell out (knee down it looked like)
lift fine
good death spiral
sbs spins not together at all but an attempt was made

40.58

2025-26 season - she was born in Aug 2007, so she's about 6 weeks too young for seniors.

 

[Amy L]

Her dress is as pretty as anything lemon yellow could possibly be.

They were really gassed at the end.

You need to be strong for me! Pretty please! I'm begging you, lol.

 

[Hedwig]

oh a pity about the axel - in the warm up they did a nice 2axel but here she singles.

and then a fall in the step sequence from Greta - the footwork still looked like they had to think it through. But I like the whimsical nature of the program!

 

[airgelaal]

Bruno borrowed a few details from his Olympic SP

 

[Rukia]

Crafoord/Crafoord

This dress is yellow! exclamation point needed
3tw looked good
throw looked 2ft and hands down maybe
sbs jump that she popped
lift fine
death spiral pretty she's very low
oops she falls in fw
oh it looked like he was supposed to do some things where he kind of lifts her up and half spins her around and they just...didn't do it
sbs spins they're trying to keep them together

hmmm that was very rough tbh

39.37

 

[Amy L]

Osipova/Epstein are WD

 

[Hedwig]

oh Osipova/Epstein have withdrawn - did we know that?

 

[airgelaal]

Nika OSIPOVA / Dmitry EPSTEIN WD

 

[Rukia]

Osipov/Epstein have withdrawn

oh dj playing my new fave Oliva Rodrigo song bless

 

[Karen-W]

Osipova/Epstein are WD

I've been worried they were going to WD since they also WD from Lombardia a couple weeks ago. I hope all is well with them.

I can take over for a while in pbp if you need a break but I don't know when I have to stop again and watch later (Mr Hedwig away and Mini Hedwig might cry for sustenance at one point :-D )

lol if my kids actually start school I might have to stop for a bit but they show no interest right now which future me will regret when we're doing schoolwork at 8pm but current me is just fine with

 

[Amy L]

There are a lot of hair issues on my screen right now.

 

[Hedwig]

H/D
2twist, near crash
sbs 3sal
throw 3loop heavily df
this beard thing under his chin makes me wanna grab a wet tissue and wipe away some dirt
a bit messy in places and they do not look satisfied at all
50.71 2nd

 

[Amy L]

Questionable hair choices aside, I'm happy to see them back, feels like forever! They looked pretty excited to be back themselves, they looked like they were going crazy fast in the beginning.

They did well, the only mistake I saw was a twofoot on the throw (loop?)

 

[Rukia]

I mean sbs spins actually mostly together?? in this economy???

50.71

 

[airgelaal]

Old costumes
They train in Dnipro, I can’t imagine how they manage to do it.

Nebelhorn Trophy 2022 was their first and last competition last year

 

[Rukia]

This is somehow both very rock-and-roll and very Canadian idk how y'all do it

They were going for the uberperk as only a Canadian can.

 

[fan]

[Hedwig]

L/E CAN
high 3twist
sbs 3sal
a bit of a wobble in a change of hold in the lift
throw 3loop nice

this will go into second for now - will be hard in Canada to get past the strong top two pair teams
