2025 Cup of China Pairs Free PBP - I'd Do Anything For Points (But Am Wont To Splat)

My best guess is that Sui was sick of seeing her Olympic photos from back when the haze of stress was producing some bad decisions, and thought: "I have GOT to come back to competition with better hair."

He really was unsteady on the lifts today, I don't remember his footwork being so bad in the lifts. She is brave, that must be very skary.

Same. I like them very much but don't remember his turns in the lifts being so wobbly and I had a thought during the program about the condition of the ice. And that near fall was very scary!! Mainly for her. I hope whatever it was making his turns so choppy gets fixed!

I happened to listen to Polina Edmunds recap this morning, and she completely skipped Sui/Han! She mentioned the newer Chinese couple. I wonder if it was a brain fart or not wanting to comment for some reason.

Its not the first time she made such a big mistake. I enjoy her comments but she isn't the most prepared.

I find her comments interesting if I've seen the competition.

I do think she's good at interviewing athletes. She doesn't talk about herself endlessly, but she does use her experience to draw out athletes about how to deal with injuries and various aspects of competing. I especially liked her conversation with Deanna Stellato about what it was like to switch from heavier to lighter boots and how that forced them to tweak their technique.
