2026 Olys Team Event PBP Day 3 - When Your Bum Hits the Ice and Your Legs In the Sky - That's Errore!

[Spikefan]

I’m happiest for Japan and Italy.

 

[Bill Trenary]

Thank you, Danny and Ellie...

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

A statue for Ellie for landing the throws today.

 

[Colonel Green]

This was the most dramatic iteration of this event in terms of stakes toward the end of the competition.

 

[Augusztus]

Sorry Japan didn't win.

 

[ryanj07]

You can see the relief on Amber's face that USA still got the gold. Poor girl wouldn't have recovered from thinking she cost the team...

 

[Coco]

Those sherpa jackets with the Nordic pattern that some of the Team USA skaters are to die for.

 

[Skaterbob]

Good judging. He was much slower, covered less ice, had weaker spins, and let it go a bit in the last minute. Malinin’s PCS were better today.

Yes he tripped too. Spins are just so bad, I dunno what the deal is.

 

[dupa]

And their lucky underwear.


And at every comp for several seasons.


Not anyone. Stop being weird.

Huh?

 

[Spikefan]

Japan should just go buy a dance team, that's a shame

They need to change their citizenship requirement first.

 

[Citlali]

Lovely team event, the best so far

Congrats team USA, team Japan and Team Italia

Earthquake alert for the mexican narrators, hope is not a big one

Edit: 5.7 quake

 

[canbelto]

Aww poor Shun. You can tell he's crushed.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

OMG that was so close!!! Terrifying but awesome!

Sato seems devastated but the other Japanese skaters seem happy.

 

[rfisher]

Never count the boy out. His potential is so much higher and now he should have the Olympic nerves out of the way.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Awww... Team Japan should be proud

 

[Karen-W]

Awww, Shun's so heartbroken at his score and I can't help feeling for him. I really would love to see him with an individual medal next Friday.

 

[annie_mg]

I wish this was like in gymnastics where the gymnastics who weren't used on the day still get a medal!!!!

 

[BittyBug]

They should give two sets of gold medals and a bronze. Japan was sooooo good.

 

[BrightSkates]

Low key really disappointed I dont know why but I really thought that was the winning performance

 

[jenny12]

I actually lowkey think Sato might edge Yuma for the silver.

Yeah, I prefer Yuma but I trust Sato as a competitor a bit more.

 

[VGThuy]

Not to be petty, but seeing Danny O’Shea with a gold medal makes me think of that mean-spirited blog post Tarah Kayne wrote about him and how she painted him as some head-in-the-clouds unrealistic dreamer who annoyed her too much. I know she had it really bad but I felt that piece was mean.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

69. Nice.

 

[miffy]

Ahhh. Congrats to all 3 teams who medalled, what an exciting event! For once it's worked really well being at the start.

I feel so bad for Sato, he looked so sad after such an amazing skate. I hope he will feel very proud of himself.

 

[MsZem]

I would have judged this better. Obviously.

 

[genevieve]

ive never seen so many car insurance commercials, please bring back the uncrustables

I'd take a Sarah McLachlan ASPCA ad right about now

 

[my little pony]

Those sherpa jackets with the Nordic pattern that some of the Team USA skaters are to die for.

if you aim your remote at it, does it go in a cart?
where's AI when you need it?

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

On the positive side, I hope it means C/B have gotten their golds and can happily be off the podium at the IE or whatever.

 

[ilovepaydays]

Chin up, Shun. You did really well today. And you’re getting an Olympic silver medal!

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

Shun, there’s nothing you could have done better except asking Yuma to switch to ice dance 20 years ago

 

[ilovesalchows]

So proud of them. Now they can skate for themselves.
