It's really hard to imagine elite figure skaters drinking something as junky as Coca-Cola. I'm just a regular person, and I haven't touched the stuff in decades.

I really loved their FD at Cup of China ... I actually re-watched it several times. I'm excited that we have a team that is so promising. I love their skating skills and flow and edges. They seem so well matched, and I honestly can't keep my eyes off of Vadym. He has charisma!

I agree with you 100%. I think it's time for C/B to leave and make room for the newer teams. I loved Z/K ... they felt like a breath of fresh air (even with the warhorse Romeo and Juliet). I loved watching their flow and edges, something C/B sorely lack as a team. Ice dance is so much more...

so sad about this. I wish them the best.

This is the best news ever! (I've been so worried ....).

I'm getting increasingly worried since we're not hearing any updates.

For the first time this year, I noticed this team and really like them. F-B is really an amazing skater - I was captivated by her in their recent Free Dance. Her partner is not as great with smoothness and edges, but somehow it works ... my eye is always drawn to her. I'm rooting for them!

Here comes a comment that will be wildly unpopular: I cannot stand the ice dance team of Chock and Bates. I leave the room when they come on. Chock is a gimmicky skater and I'm tired of hearing about her amazing physical beauty. There, I said it, and damn, that felt good.

I really like H&D FD ... love the smoothness, the long edges, the flow. Works so nicely with the music. It might be one of my favorite H&D programs. I really like this team ... I'd love them to do well. I've never really liked C&B ... can't stand that fake "personality" stuff from Madison, and...

I am very sad that Sui is injured again. She has battled injuries her whole competitive life, and now this. She is very driven, and I wonder if over-training has a role. I just love Sui and Han as a pair. They bring something very special. I wish Sui the best in her recovery. I hope she...

Love their Sound of Silence!

Sui/Han - gold P/C - gold Maddie and Zach - bronze in dance

That brought a smile to my face! What good sports they all are!

What type of illness?

I just watched their SD, and there doesn't seem to be much warmth or connection between them. Needless to say, the fall was very jarring, and his lack of obvious concern speaks volumes. She deserves to be treated with much more respect and care. He's a total turn-off.
