2023 Autumn Classic International - Pairs SP & FS

[Kateri]

She totally started smiling when she saw him stumble, though. Like: oh thank god, I can mess up now, and it won't be all my fault.

 

[skatfan]

Everything is a little rough today, oops, now another fall.

 

[airgelaal]

This program couldn't be more generic

 

[Rukia]

She was really high in the death spiral

 

[Karen-W]

MiuKih - wow, those SBS 3t+2a+1a were a hot mess. Hey, the SBS 3s were better - only a scrape of her hand on the ice! Boy, are they competition-rusty. Like, I'd have WD if I were them rather than show up looking this bad. They're WC, they can afford to pull a ChoBat/KniFraz and only compete the GP.

The thing that made Woman work IMO was that the music built and so did their skating with speed, big elements, creative lifts, etc. I know not many people liked the program but I liked the excitement that was built with it. But since then, this is now four programs that are really just complete letdowns and don't have that same effect. This may as well could've been The Prayer and had the same snoozy quality.

They. Need. Dynamic. Music. That. Builds.

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Miura and Kihara is just going to be one of those teams I like in spite of their music.

 

[Colonel Green]

By their own admission they've got a lot of rust to knock off. But Celine should play well at the Bell Centre when they seek to defend their World title.

 

[Frau Muller]

M/K of Japan:

Good speed.

Good lifts.

But

Somebody get that bucket of grease off her hair!!!!

 

[Wyliefan]

When will they get a decent program? They're too good for this!

 

[Rukia]

I can't believe I'm going to have to pretend that I enjoyed this program at skam but I'll do what I have to

Maybe, but not as well as being the home LOCAL team favorites.

 

[airgelaal]

Maybe they will change this program too?

 

[tony]

They need to.

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

I love M/K but these music and program choices just do them disservice. I love them regardless though!

 

[Karen-W]

It's really a pity that Spencer had to have shoulder surgery and ChanHowe didn't get the SkAm assignment due to his recovery.

This program would have had infinitely more impact if it was The Prayer. At least that is generic schlock that has moments of highlight in it. Whatever that music was was just 4 minutes of monotone. Baffling choice.

 

[Habs]

The red beading on Deanna's dress. Love her for it.

 

[marbri]

Based on costumes I think we know who does the biting.

this is particularly tragic for me

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

I'm going to assume we get vampire bite because her neck is already bleeding

 

[Rukia]

she had too much blood loss and couldn't finish the 3 jump combo alas

 

[tony]

Another death spiral for people to hate - I like it

 

[Rukia]

I like it sometimes but that one was kind of not as great too bad he can't vampire bite her during it that'd be more fun

 

[airgelaal]

I'd wait for the credits.

 

[tony]

Neither team was amazing and Max was very tentative through the whole skate, even on a few of the lifts, but this program is easily the more complex, more well-choreographed, and more well-performed of the two.

I'd give them the PCS easily. And they had enough of a cushion going into the program that in a fair world, this should be an easy win.

 

[Rukia]

I'm spending this entire program chanting bite bite bite and yet

 

[Karen-W]

SDDes - good 3tw! SBS 3t+1a, missed the SBS 3S but one of them fell per the tracker, lol. Throw 3s was great! And the throw 3lo was even bigger!

All I gotta say is MiuKih better get their shit together because both SDDes and ConMac are coming for them.

 

[Frau Muller]

S-D/D skated with majesty, to majestic music. Great look, outfits, hair. Nothing oddball. Should be first. P/N second.

 

[Colonel Green]

Love the death spiral.

I really hope Deanna's knees can hold up for another two years, she really deserves to go to the Olympics.
