2025 4CC - Pairs Short: “Seoul Train(wreck)”

[Rukia]

ryuichi kihara my beloved

 

[Aceon6]

Ok, give them all the points. It’s a shame that all 5 of the top teams can’t skate in the same group.

 

[PRlady]

Ok that’s in first and they’re the only team that can beat the Germans in Boston. Goodnite y’all.

 

[Sally1214]

YES!!!! Great skate from Riku and Ryuichi. LOVE this pair. IMO, they have the best SP of any pair this season. What do they need to do to get that twist to a level 4 .... I think it's always level 3.

 

[fsfann]

Did he do a double

I thought it was a double myself, but it seems like it was a triple??

 

[Karen-W]

Well, let me take a look at the schedule. If the ladies are up next maybe I’ll stay awake. I wish we could see the Milan Road to 26 programs

Go check GoldenSkate's IG - they filmed almost all of the programs & livestreamed them. They plan on doing the same tomorrow.

 

[her grace]

M/K

Love how assertively they move. She just snapped into position in the lift. And it may be muzak “Paint it Black”, but it’s the most interesting piece they’ve skated to!

 

[Braulio]

The best overall performance in 5th place, how?

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Were EfiMit robbed….

 

[I Luv Bulldogs]

Does anyone here think the Germans will take the world title?

Raises my hand!

 

[genevieve]

Is Meaghan only allowed at competitions if she stays out of everyone's way?

Am shocked that DS/D are in FORTH, and EfMit definitely got the penalty for skating early

Riku and Ryuichi

Overall, a great pairs competition.

 

[Aceon6]

45 minutes till dance. If I don’t fall asleep, that is.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

EfiMit and had my favorite programs despite the Australians having the weird war horse music

 

[genevieve]

See you all tomorrow!

 

[MacMadame]

The best overall performance in 5th place, how?

2nd overall performance.

 

[Citlali]

I hope I can stay awake for the dance

 

[Wyliefan]

That's it for me. I'll catch up in the morning. Good night!

 

[Karen-W]

Ok that’s in first and they’re the only team that can beat the Germans in Boston. Goodnite y’all.

Yeah, it definitely seems like they're the only ones with a chance at beating MiNiki.

I do think bronze is a contest between ConMac and KamOShea at this point; and I really think that SDDes are going to be lucky to finish 5th overall.

 

[miffy]

I hope the whoever does the ISU feed on YouTube does a better job for the rest of the event, they seemed to put the live feed on the Women’s free link instead of Pairs short They still have the wrong cover photo.

I’ve changed the link in the first post in case anyone here goes to watch it later.

 

[Sally1214]

Does anyone here think the Germans will take the world title?

Maybe. I'm going to be SO torn at Worlds because I wish 3 couples could win ....and, well, that's not going to happen. I think it's just down to who can pull off clean skates when they need too. My nails will take a beating for sure.

 

[4rkidz]

Overall a good pairs competition for 4C .. I agree with all the judges and can see why levels made a difference with the second American team. Japanese deserve first but I would have Lia and Trentt in 2nd.. but basically 2nd 3rd and 4th is tied. What an exciting free skate this will be.

 

[Colonel Green]

Lia & Trennt got robbed of a higher score relative to the teams in second and fourth.
