[overedge]

I swear the light is getting darker by tonight they'll be skating in the dark

The sun goes down early in winter in Alberta.

The sun goes down early in winter in Alberta.

My husband has informed me that they just need better lenses but I think your answer makes more sense

 

[skategal]

Here we go! Piper and Paul!!!

 

[JoannaLouise]

I am very invested in the race for the podium here, to see which 2 teams end up grabbing those unexpected medals. We'll see if any of them manage to set themselves apart in the RD, or if they'll all be clumped together heading into tomorrow.

 

[Wyliefan]

Holy GOE!

Piper Gilles / Paul Poirier - No More I Love You's (The Lover Speaks)/Addicted to Love (Robert Palmer)

 

[Wyliefan]

Twizzles were a little rough.

 

[Rukia]

oopsie twizzles for Paul

 

[Desperado]

G&P look slow. Is it me?

 

[Rukia]

G&P look slow. Is it me?

I thought they looked really slow too, but they sped up when the music did

 

[overedge]

Damn. Just....damn. I loved that.

Piper's tights are mega trashy and I am here for that.

 

[marbri]

Not their best skate for me. I was expecting them to hit those levels without any pressure in the competition.

 

[skategal]

Kaitlyn thinks Paul has David Byrne vibes too.

That was my thought the first time I saw this RD.

 

[Alilou]

G&P look slow. Is it me?

Maybe a bit slow, but I noticed how precise they were.

Alicia Fabbri / Paul Ayer - Back in Black/Hells Bells/You Shook Me All Night Long (AC/DC)

 

[overedge]

Not their best skate for me. I was expecting them to hit those levels without any pressure in the competition.

it's a journey

 

[skategal]

My DH thinks they are discussing candy (Twizzlers) not twizzles.

 

[Aceon6]

Not their best skate for me. I was expecting them to hit those levels without any pressure in the competition.

I couldn’t really see, but they did seem quite deliberate. Not enough cameras.

 

[overedge]

In the immortal words of bike customizer Jesse James, flames make everything look cool.

 

[Desperado]

Hell’s Bells! AC/DC minus the thighs lyrics?

 

[Wyliefan]

Very strong performance from F/A!

 

[skategal]

DH disappointed they aren’t skating to Thunderstruck.

 

[marbri]

Love these two

A lot of rock RD's this season come across forced and cheesy but this one works.

 

[Desperado]

That was so fun!

 

[JoannaLouise]

I'm not good at spotting the finer points of technique in dance, but I thought Alicia and Paul looked great!

 

[BlueRidge]

Can't stand the music, but loved the skating!

 

[overedge]

Well, well, well. This was a very nice surprise.

Hahaha I was just about to say that I could see Zach D in the movements too. Hi again, Kaitlyn

 

[Rukia]

I think they made a strong case for one of those podium spots

 

[marbri]

Will be so disappointed if this isn't solidly in front of B/B.
