Hey, I made it!

 

[victorskid]

And we are in the tunnel awaiting the introductions...

 

[MacMadame]

Also, I can't believe we haven't had whickety-whack!

 

[skatfan]

I’m here using Siri

 

[Aceon6]

Thank you GP standings for serving the two best teams first. That way, I can rewind and rewatch while the other 4 present whatever.

 

[skatfan]

My cat Cleo loves the new sparkly introductions

 

[Karen-W]

Buckle up, folks - you're in for more VISIONARY skating courtesy of Shawn Rettstatt's IDTC!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

GOOOOOOOOOO Lilah and Lewis!!!!!!!!!!

 

[miffy]

I’ve been looking forward to Rasputin all week

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I guess we’re going to have to accept the Italians refuse to change these costumes.

Speaking of long-term partnerships..

I still remember Chock and Bates in their first season of the Grand Prix. They were at Skate Canada and it was the days when Debbie Wilkes used to comment on live stream practices and you could text a phone number in which they'd read off the questions and comments.

She and whoever else was with her were going on and on about how they knew nothing about/haven't seen them before and I texted in that she won a bronze in that very event with a different partner the year before. She read it out loud and they got all flustered

Won’t that potentially hinder your wuzrobbing if you don’t see the others?

Now that we've confirmed that Zach's costume is borrowed from Jean-Luc, does that make their RD a tribute to the one they did as juniors, or a tribute to the gala program that Hawayak/Baker did?

 

[Sally1214]

Back in my chair for ice dance. I spent the 20-minute break jogging around the house. Hubby asked what on earth I was doing running up and down the hall. I told him I have to TRY to get some body movement in or I'll calcify by the end of the GPF. So much sitting with such short breaks. Do people attending the event live even have time to make it through the bathroom lineup?

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I’m rooting for the Finnish team here

I will leave that to @MacMadame to determine!

Ra-ra-rasputin! It's stuck in my head and they haven't even skated yet.

 

[PRlady]

My cat Cleo loves the new sparkly introductions

Cooper was here on alert the moment I tuned in to Junior Men and is enjoying his day with mom on the couch.

 

[Allen]

So excited for Lopareva and Brissaud!

 

[Marta24]

[MacMadame]

I will leave that to @MacMadame to determine!

I read the word tribute twice so...

 

[skatfan]

And the Spanish,!

 

[Frau Muller]

Chock and Bates all the way.

 

[MacMadame]

She has a point there.

 

[Kateri]

I’ve been looking forward to Rasputin all week

They better have put the "oh those Russians" line back. No cowards in ice dance!

 

[Marta24]

I’m rooting for the Finnish team here

I'm rooting for the Czechs.

 

[Karen-W]
