Thanks for the links!! I'd rather translate Cyrillic without a computer than try to understand that LA Open schedule. OOF! I have never seen anything more confusing in my life.

ETA- God bless you Sylvia. You are surely a wizard. I saw Int-Sr on every line and my head exploded.

Skate Milwaukie might be the Junior singles JGP competition but this is shaping up to be the critical event in dance for determining early JGP assignments!

Is this being streamed anywhere?

Is this being streamed anywhere?

Unfortunately not.

ETA:

LA Open Junior & Senior Pairs SP is scheduled to be livestreamed starting at 9:30 pm Eastern time (about one hour from now)... I just clicked on the livestream link in my post #62 above and there's a break going on right now until the start of the Junior Pairs SP. I don't think it's necessary to start a separate thread for LA Open - we can just keep using this one.

Junior Pairs SP is first (debut for all 3): Cate Fleming/Chase Finster, Ashley Fletcher/Aidan Brown, Sonia Baram/Daniel Tioumentsev

ETA: Scores not live... Baram/Tioumentsev ("Bla Bla Bla Bla Cha Cha Cha" song) looked quite good for a new team!

 

[love skating]

Sonia Baram & Daniel Tioumentsev's twist! Wow!!

 

[Wyliefan]

Sonia Baram & Daniel Tioumentsev's twist! Wow!!

Strong performance all the way through for them. Really nice.

 

[Sylvia]

Senior Pairs SP starting order: Katie McBeath/Nathan Bartholomay, Kate Finster/Matej Silecky, Chelsea Liu/Daniel O'Shea

ETA:

McBeath/Bartholomay kept their "Cry Me A River" SP from last season. 3twist, she landed the sbs 3T/he underrotated/2-footed?, nice throw 3Lo!

 

[Wyliefan]

Such a good debut for Chelsea and Danny!

 

[just tuned in]

Liu and O'Shea look like contenders to me! Lovely elements easily skated to Taylor Swift's "Lover" and Danny looks so happy.

 

[Sylvia]

Very nice 3twist & sbs 3S by Chelsea & Danny!

ETA that Meno/Sand/C. Knierim's Intermediate pair is warming up now - Alissa Korytek/Carter Griffin.

 

[Rukia]

Liu/O'Shea were lovely! They look really good together for such a short time together. Hope they can carry this momentum into the rest of the season.

 

[haribobo]

Katie/Nate looked really sharp and Chelsea/Danny gave me full body chills, maybe its an overreaction but I felt what I felt.

 

[love skating]

To be honest when I heard Liu and O'Shea had paired up I didn't think much of the pairing but they are really wonderful! I'm excited to see where this partnership goes and grows. They're like a breath of fresh air when they skate!

 

[Wyliefan]

So I've heard Burlesque, Disaster Movie Cry Me a River, and 2 Roxannes today. It's officially skating season!

 

[Amy L]

Chelsea and Danny both looked super happy being back on the ice. Good for them

 

[Catherine M]

I hate to get excited about a team after one skate in the middle of July, but Liu/O'Shea look really good.

And Kate Finster looked like she was skating with some random guy from the parking lot . I know, summer skating and all that but the difference in their outfits was jarring.

 

[Sylvia]

Chelsea Liu/Danny O'Shea scored 67.18 - Senior Pairs SP protocols: https://ijs.usfigureskating.org/leaderboard/nonqual_results/2021/30042/SEGM007.html

Sonia Baram/Daniel Tioumentsev won Junior Pairs SP with 51.27 - protocols: https://ijs.usfigureskating.org/leaderboard/nonqual_results/2021/30042/SEGM005.html

 

[Karen-W]

Sonia Baram & Daniel Tioumentsev's twist! Wow!!

I was actually more impressed with their chemistry and presentation skills. They'll need to up the SBS jumps to be competitive internationally but they very much have the look of a lot of young Russian teams. I know, he's Russian, but still... Sonia has quite the personality on ice. I hope they get at least one JGP assignment!

Liu/O'Shea definitely looked good. Do we have any idea how long they've been skating together? Seems like it has to be at least 4-5 months based on their basic pair-ness on the ice. Some good lines and definitely some technical chops. No wonder they got a SA host pick even as a new pair! Danny is just right up there with Brendan as far as being one of the best male pairs skaters in the US and it was a joy to watch him skating today.

Silecky looked like he just threw on any ol' sweatshirt for today's competition, lol. There was one point in the step sequence where she space-cadeted and lost her place in it, lol. Summer skating indeed.

I think they have been together about 3 months

[Amy L]

I really liked Baram/Tioumentsev's SP. I hope it's not an injury issue!

 

[just tuned in]

No Kate/Nate?

 

[Amy L]

No Kate/Nate?

They're not in the warm up so I guess not

 

[Karen-W]

Silecky still has no costume today...

ETA - really, I think it's the same shirt he wore yesterday.
