Look at what his skate blade does on the ice immediately prior to this. Even if he was fully in control, what you say absolutely is a mistake in synchronicity and should be docked GOE. Their 1st set of twizzles were not in sync either, so at best +3 GOE max. Other judges grading them 0,2,3...

(Meant to post this in here): I hope the US federation launches an inquiry. Even just from watching the tech tracker: C/B: OFTW3+OFTM3, no review. DiStW3+DiStM4, review, dropped to M3. F-B/C: OFTW3+OFTM4, no review. SeStW3+SeStM3, review, no change. So C/B gets Level 3s but they don't review...

I hope the US federation launches an inquiry. Something is fishy with the technical, as I watched the tech tracker on tv. C/B: OFTW3+OFTM3, no review. DiStW3+DiStM4, review, dropped to M3. F-B/C: OFTW3+OFTM4, no review. SeStW3+SeStM3, review, no change. So C/B gets Level 3s but they don't...

Thanks for sharing this - there are some shots here I'd never seen before, like of the Moms in the audience at Sochi and practicing POTO it looks like. I feel so fortunate that it was Davis/White I stumbled on half my lifetime ago, the way their career went, and how special it was to follow...

Speech introducing Meryl and Charlie at the reception. I don't have any long ones of their speeches themselves (I felt a bit invasive filming this close as they were becoming emotional...), but I do hope they're uploaded as well! As @TanithandBenFan said, everyone really should hear them.

Meryl and Charlie gave beautiful speeches at the hall of fame reception today. Meryl made everyone tear up - and had a funny story when thanking Igor (who was in attendance): apparently after the infamous Cup of Russia OD, he sprinkled holy water on them in preparation for the FD. And Charlie...

Yes, I will! Excited to see you there. This will be a nice reunion :)

Happy birthday to Meryl! Looking forward to seeing her and Charlie inducted into the HoF at Nationals. :)

Meryl and Fedor had a small ceremony in Michigan too. Love this backyard wedding as well. Congrats to Meryl and Fedor :)

Jonathan Cassar. Great skater in terms of his artistry, sheer movement, and dat spread eagle :swoon:

Are D/W skating in the exhibition? Tweet in question

Also happy last day of being reigning Olympic ice dance champions to Meryl and Charlie. :40beers: for all the years
