Euros 2024 Pairs Short - “We Want More Triples”

[Kateri]

I assume this is Simon doing commentary. He's trying very hard to be positive. Bless him. Those level 1 twists are cracker all right.

Chris. I don't think Simon's getting back on any ISU broadcasts after The Incident.

Schaller&Mayr : never heard about them in my life, although I see they already completed last year. They are nice to look at, pretty polished, but his entrances on the pair elements bother me: he just stops on the spot. I think it's lack of training most of all. The music is from ZigSeb so the Austrian tradition lives on. I expect them to be the first ones out.

 

[kosjenka]

I love love love the official colour of the competition. Can we make it all time EUROS colour please?

For the teams that didn't have their best skates at Euros, at least they can include 2024 Euros on their resumes.

Anastasiia and Luka
Anastasia and Luke
Hmmmm...

 

[beckab81]

Wasn’t she a former singles skater? I would have expected slightly better than a downgrade on the SBS. Rough skate

No it's Chris Howarth. Does Simon do skating any more after the Meaghan Duhamel comment?

 

[rfisher]

Bidar makes the free! A life goal met.

 

[TAHbKA]

Urushadze, Egadze and Davis/Smalkin are here with the GEO flags. Kazakova/Reviya's legacy lives

 

[skatingguy]

So "Danse Macabre" is shitty and whiny? Interesting take.

That wasn't Danse Macabre.

 

[Ananas Astra]

That wasn't Danse Macabre.

The second part was.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

I can't believe Berulava is 21. He looks 35 and feels like I've been watching him skating for 40 years at least

 

[Karen-W]

Lmao - oh, Chris... Tayside Trophy is NOT fast becoming one of the premier international competitions, no matter what Simon Briggs tells you.

 

[rfisher]

Who coaches the Crafoords now?

 

[skatingguy]

The second part was.

Nope, the second part is 'le cotege' from 'Les noces de feu'. It's based on 'Danse Macabre', but it's not the original.

 

[skatingguy]

Who coaches the Crafoords now?

Bruno Massot - the irony

 

[Amy L]

Who coaches the Crafoords now?

Massot

 

[kosjenka]

I have such ick factor for Berluva. I cannot helP myself.
Chris pretending he is a junior after being senior.

I cannot.

 

[rfisher]

Massot

The incestuous nature of skating.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Bruno Massot - the irony

That's awesome!

 

[once_upon]

These costumes are ....uh.... interesting

 

[Ananas Astra]

Joker Out from Slovenia (represented their country at last year's Eurovision) have called. They want the shirt back Berulava stole from them.

 

[Karen-W]

MetBeru - I don't care how much potential they have, this is still one of the most WTF music choices of the season, lol.

 

[Sally1214]

Good morning all. Just woke up in time for the Georgians. Hearing great things about them from Chris.

 

[skatingguy]

Anastasiia Metelkina/Luka Berulava
Coach: P. Silusarenko, E. Zakroev, M. Trankov
Music: Summertime

 

[Ananas Astra]

Weird music and costume choices aside, this is actually fun.

 

[npavel]

I love their energy. enjoying the moment delivered with confidence

 

[Wyliefan]

I always wonder why no one clutches pearls over this version of Summertime. Is it because it's almost unrecognizable?

 

[TAHbKA]

I liked Safina/Berulava better than Metelkina/Berulava.
Davis, Smalkin, Urishadze and Egadze are giving a standing ovation. Beats me what for
