And we have a few spectators even in the upper deck for this short afternoon session.

Yeah, looks like they’ve opened the whole upper deck for the free skates. It was curtained off earlier in the week. Cool!

 

[myhoneyhoney]

Just made it home from work! Phew

 

[ChillSkate]

I hate that there is a break in this event. I get that it is for TV but especially for Pairs it's entirely possible that an 8th or 9th place team could end up as a medalist.

It will be packed tonight. When I checked yesterday, there are still lots of tickets available for tomorrow night in the upper deck.

And Ashley getting paid by the word again today

 

[Ross H]

Chan and Howe looking a little unsteady in the warmup, but they just landed 3T separately just before the warmup ended.

 

[Sarah]

C/H look over it.

 

[petro]

Ahh Keyton

 

[ChillSkate]

Looks like Chan & Howe will be doing planned doubles for SBSs from what we've seen on TV

 

[my little pony]

this split for tv is just silly and it isnt 1998 anymore, im not sure who is invested in pairs like that

Especially because any nerds like us who really want to watch live will just find it live on the internet!

 

[Sarah]

F/B have improved a lot!

 

[Karen-W]

Alrighty then...

FitzBear - 3tw - fine; SBS 3s - landed; throw 3lo - fine; first lift - decent; SBS 2s+1a+1a - both popped the Sal; second lift - also decent; BODS - fine; throw 3s - done; choreo seq - well, now! backflip from Keyton as she does a stag leap! last lift - fine; combo spin - slow as the music... Why end on such a bland note?

Not too shabby.

 

[Lizziebeth]

I am hoping the Japanese pirate feed is available later. Last night's NBC broadcast was terrible.

 

[peibeck]

F/B still need cooking, but I've seen definite improvement over the last two seasons.

 

[Prancer]

Didn't Scott Hamilton say (a million times) that a backflip is hard to learn but easy to do?

Not based on the 6 minute warm up.

 

[petro]

F/B have improved SO much! Good for them.

 

[Lizziebeth]

Don't know why Ashley needs to rattle on about the obvious. Who does she think is watching? Some random people that never watched skating before

 

[Braulio]

Good performance from Fitzpatrick and Bearinger!

and he is very pleasant to watch

great we get saw them today

 

[Karen-W]

F/B still need cooking, but I've seen definite improvement over the last two seasons.

Yes, but they need better programs. This program was just boring - no personality or spark.

 

[peibeck]

Jim Peterson and Tanith Belbin's attic portrait's must work overtime.

 

[petro]

Ahh what would a skating event be without this song! lol

 

[Sarah]

It’s nice when teams stay together and actually progress.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Oh dear, I only have 40 minutes right now and then I have to work again, how is the new addition to the harem? Bearinger?

 

[Debbie S]

This song needs to be banned.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

At some point, I think that WilLew need to upgrade this content… I don’t think I would send it to junior worlds that content.

This song needs to be banned.

not just that, put in a time capsule and sent into outer space, but we don’t want to harm alien life …
