2025 Skate America Pairs Free - Slay Something (I'm Giving Up On You)

[leilaofpaper]

I love Riku’s dress, wish his matched a bit better though.

 

[Kateri]

Remember I'm British. We do something wrong and then we get called out and pushed to resign

Yes, but in politics, it's not because anyone is sorry, or thinks the bad behaviour is wrong, it's just an excuse for their backbiting rivals to push them down. So (unless things are much more vicious behind the scenes than I think) FSU mods actually have way more integrity.

 

[Matryeshka]

You knew that performance was going to be good when she had +3 wedgie.

By the time this gets to the Olympics, this is going to be so good.

 

[Sally1214]

Oh my goodness ... now THAT is eye makeup that deserves serious attention.

 

[peibeck]

Anastasia put her ice dance makeup on today.

 

[slicekw]

If there’s an award for best eye makeup that goes with your costume, Metelkina just nailed it.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Gladiator was a real cultural moment of a film in the early 2000s.

The eighth grade social studies teacher at my middle/high school looked like Russel Crowe. We called him Mr. Maximus for years.

 

[Citlali]

Love these colors for the costumes, will never like the mismatched sleeves

 

[Karen-W]

Pandering to the Olympic audience, I'm sure.

Like several other Japanese skaters this season...

And Rakhmanin's hair is awful and distracting. It's nicely faded on the sides; he just needs to do something different with the top of it.

Yes - it's just a really dated hair style, IMO, and that's what makes it distracting. As someone else pointed out, shades of Trankov, who won Olympic gold 20 years ago...

ETA: I was wrong. She did NOT keep it together enough to get credit for the sequence. It will be 3T(< probably) + SEQ.

If only the tech panel had the nerve to call it...

 

[Kasey]

So, no team is going to have a clean skate today

 

[Wyliefan]

Terry: "There's one" on her fall, like he's checking off boxes.

 

[TAHbKA]

damn

 

[Citlali]

Oh no

 

[beckab81]

 

[Kateri]

Cursed competition!

 

[slicekw]

For the young people in the crowd, that was an old-fashioned telephone ringing…

 

[Colonel Green]

And the Georgians give it away.

EDIT: Aborted lift disaster!

 

[Wyliefan]

Whoa! What got into them today?

 

[tangerine dream]

This event is cursed

 

[PRlady]

Whoa way to give away the medal.

 

[~tapdancer~]

I think this pairs event is cursed.

 

[Elisheba]

What is happening??

 

[Belsornia]

Oh no! The door was open but they got off the lift on the wrong floor.

 

[Kateri]

Even a B on the death spiral.

 

[Private Citizen]

Yikes. Golden opportunity squandered with both SBS jumps missed. They'll get a +REP. Oh, and now a botched lift. Disaster. They will probably deserve to go behind Laurin and Ethier in the free if the judges don't prop them up with PCS. Awful death spiral. Did it even get low enough?

 

[Aceon6]

Ok, I get it. This is the “how crappy can we skate and still medal” segment. I hope the singles aren’t watching this.

 

[rfisher]

Arrrggggg...It doesn't matter how good you are, you've got to show it when it counts. They need to have a long reflection about this skate and being competitive.

 

[peibeck]

Metelkina/Berulava melting down

 

[kwanfan1818]

Melelkina's head seems to spend more time above her knee than below in the fugly death spiral. Is this just the camera angle?

 

[Matryeshka]

Whoa. Georgians falling apart. Who gave the Canadians the voodoo doll?
