Worlds 2024 Pairs FS: ‘The wedgie always gets its woman’

[Flip Jump]

They need to stay ahead of Hungry for 3 spots… Oye

 

[Karen-W]

Lots of little mistakes here and there. I expect this is actually going to drop them to 6th overall. That TES is not their friend at all tonight.

 

[slicekw]

I’m not sure that Mark’s going to survive the pairs.

 

[Rukia]

congrats to the germans

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh, Italy.

 

[peibeck]

At this point they've made so many baubles they may drop to 5th.

 

[overedge]

"Back In Death" is not a good shortening of an element name.

 

[thvu]

This was a disaster. They're going to need PCS to be 4th overall.

 

[Spikefan]

My blood pressure is in the red between the Italians and French Canadian shouty man. No 3 spots for Boston. These two can stay home next season.

These lift exit near disasters lately always flash me back to the Worlds Kavaguti and Smirnov aborted a lift right at the boards and her skate was dangerously close to slashing people in the front row.

 

[Coco]

Very nervy skate for the Italians

 

[Frau Muller]

C/M - nicely romantic program and music

 

[Badams]

He just sounds drunk to me. Sometimes that's endearing and sometimes it isn't, lol.

I literally told my kid that the longer he talks, the drunker he sounds!

Sara CONTI / Niccolo MACII
Coach: Barbara Luoni
Music: Nuovo Cinema Paradiso, Cinema Paradiso

Triple Twist 2 - awkward catch almost leading to a fall
3T+2A+SEQ - Niccolo struggled with the landing on the 2nd jump so they didn't attempt the third
3S
Reverse Lasso Lift 4
Throw 3Lo - hand down
Toe Lasso Lift 4
Choreo Sequence
Throw 3S
Hand/Hip Lift 3 - struggled with the dismount
Back Inside Death Spiral 2
Pair Combo Spin 4

That was rough right from the start. Little errors throughout the program eating away at the score. This program is more like how they've been skating all season. I think this just cost Italy 3 places.

124.46 = 4th Place
197.34 = 4th Place

Oh dear .... it just wasn't meant to be.

 

[Wyliefan]

This was a disaster. They're going to need PCS to be 4th overall.

I don't think even PCS will do it.

 

[TAHbKA]

Grrr. I wanted Germany to medal AND for Italy to get 3 spots!

 

[Kateri]

MEDAL FOR MINERVA!!!

sorry i'm going full conti/macii hater, it's 1.30am and i don't want to watch this messy schlock.

It's not called a Scotch accent for nothing.

 

[Matryeshka]

"Back In Death" is not a good shortening of an element name.

But maybe an accurate description of this event?

You know G/A are somewhere foaming at the mouth. I mean, I would be. ((( )))

I don't think even PCS will do it.

Nope. I'm not sure they'll even stay ahead of HocKun.

 

[Amy L]

They are doing the TarMar breakout season to personal breakup to iffy next season thing and I just want to tell them to stay away from polka dots!!

 

[overedge]

I really liked the Italians, despite the wobblies. They are very graceful and gentle while being strong. They're also very well matched in the way they move, and they pay a lot of attention to getting the details in unison.

 

[Frau Muller]

Too much Amateur Hour…

 

[miffy]

..

"Scary-Harry landing." Mark is stepping up with the Britishisms in Chris Howarth's absence.

Hate to say it but I’ve never heard of that. Maybe it’s a Scottish-ism

 

[Colonel Green]

Alright, moment of truth.

 

[Wyliefan]

That is one woebegone Italian man.

 

[Steph]

Anxiety. Hate it.

 

[Rukia]

that was a very italian anger shrug lol

 

[tony]

Two German teams in the top 5 and the Hungarians in the top 4. Welp.
