That TES. SMH

 

[Karen-W]

KILLED IT!!!!!!!!!

I'll take my bows now for my pre-event prediction that this was gonna be another win for ChoBat.

 

[made_in_canada]

I'm less worried about the judging for ChoBat as I am for Fear/Gibson. Their marks have been all season.

OMG, Lv1 on the Pattern Dance.


No one is immune.

Omg, I totally forgot about Fear/Gibson!

 

[pat c]

Next year - no more Queen. There is nothing left to explore with that music. just sayin.

 

[BittyBug]

Madison Chock’s performance quality is off the charts.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Someone behind us just yelled "YOU'RE THE QUEEN, MADISON!!"

 

[Rukia]

Omg, I totally forgot about Fear/Gibson!

are you kidding me i did too lolololol

 

[Frau Muller]

C/B gorgeous & sexy! WOWEEEE!

Even the loud announcer goes nuts!

 

[airgelaal]

Is Ponomarenko a Ukrainian surname? Somewhere in Anthony's heritage he's got to have some Ukrainian in him, right?

Yes, the surname is Ukrainian. So now russia will not be able to claim him

 

[Citlali]

Madison gave her her all

Evan was there too, I guess

 

[Matryeshka]

I feel like this is Tonia's first time watching Ice Dance. She loves Chock & Bates' twizzles? Really?

I feel like the is Tonia's first time watching skating in general. It's fun hearing her react, and I think her reactions are causing Mark to react.

 

[peibeck]

Evan giving face!!! Madison always performing to the back row. Meh slow twizzles, but I was totally taken by their performance level today. Go old folks. This is your Worlds!

 

[TAHbKA]

I hope Lopareva/Brissaud keep that RD as an exhibition and I hope never to see any of the other programmes ever again

 

[made_in_canada]

are you kidding me i did too lolololol

My poor kids, I told them that was the last skaters and then we could go to the playground

 

[thvu]

I know they got a lot of +5s for the choreo sequence, but I just kept getting distracted by Madison's lack of turn out on her free legs.

I don't see how they should be getting more than +3 on any of their steps, but okay.

 

[MacMadame]

Next year - no more Queen. There is nothing left to explore with that music. just sayin.

There can never be enough Queen.

 

[Spikefan]

So frustrating that the judges cannot even keep it close. I will watch LaLa and skip the rest of the final group tomorrow. Doesn’t matter.

 

[Wyliefan]

Omg, I totally forgot about Fear/Gibson!

So did I!

 

[BittyBug]

 

[MacMadame]

My poor kids, I told them that was the last skaters and then we could go to the playground

They'll probably like FearGib though.

[Debbie S]

Yeah, baby!!!! That was amazing to watch live. Even better than Nats, I think.

 

[tony]

PE and CO, fine people can have their opinions and it's not like the Italians have a revolutionary program.

But no trained ice dance judge should be able to explain a higher PCS for skating skills for this team, let alone giving them above a 9 or so. It's unreal.

 

[Karen-W]

LOLOLOLOL! Now, I'm so happy.

Let's see how far Marie-France's mojo can take FearGib...

 

[Rukia]

g/f should be world champs by now i so wanted this to be their year

 

[marbri]

I guess this is going to be another wash, rinse and repeat World title for Chock/Bates

 

[Matryeshka]

I mean...

I think I'm going to for Fear/Gibson just for the chaos of it.

 

[airgelaal]

What sweet dreams? Girls' FS!

 

[marbri]

Plenty of space in between C/B and Guig/F... just saying
