2026 Olys Pairs FS PBP - Are We Not Entertained?

[ks1227]

And now I'm sobbing with joy along with him!

 

[Messalina]

Just fabulous from M/K.

I am more than entertained!!

 

[itsartemis]

It really sucks about the lift from yesterday.

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

wow. No pressure Minerva.

 

[Private Citizen]

Wow, well that was a Savchenko moment. Going to be hard to beat in the free, and the Germans will need every point they have from the short program.

 

[peibeck]

Kihara making sure those lifts are solid today.

Brilliantly skated, and rewarded by the judges, but now it's a wait and see.

 

[skatfan]

Magnificent!

 

[BittyBug]

That’s going to be very hard to beat.

 

[Braulio]

Wow

Tremendous pressure for Minerva and Nikita, they will have to skate CLEAN and hope PCS can be as high

At least silver for Japan

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Well, they're going to be on the podium.

Yeah, there's just no shot they won't medal. I mean, if they don't, we're all having the greatest day of pair skating ever.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I suppose someday I'll have to watch Gladiator just to have a frame of reference for skating programs.

Whatever you do, do not watch Gladiator 2.

 

[Rob]

Well it’s too bad that wasn’t the last of the night. Great skate!

 

[PRlady]

That was heartbreakingly wonderful. Please let them medal.

 

[Karen-W]

Was there no review on the 3s? It looked pretty badly underrotated.

Everything else was flawless, though.

Not to be a party pooper but no chance in hell that 3s was rotated.

A standing ovation from me nontheless

I thought she two-footed the landing in real-time and was shocked that it wasn't marked for review. That's some really questionable calling by the tech panel.

 

[annie_mg]

I find the Japaneses program a snoozefest. The music is great, but there is not a lot of connection to it. Am I the only one? Can't argue with their elements but their PCS shouldn't be that high for anything other than skating skills and composition.

 

[YourBorneo]

He cries, I cry. Loved that moment for them!

 

[Firedancer]

They really couldn’t have done anymore

 

[Hanna]

The ending pose I remember seeing this all these times earlier in the season and thinking about how it will be like at the Olympics.

 

[Karen-W]

That score is ridiculous. This wasn't better than the TE FS, sorry, judges.

 

[Wyliefan]

That was a great reaction!

 

[skategal]

Skate of the night!! Huge scores!!

 

[Private Citizen]

Holy score. Hase and Volodin will need a personal best by quite a bit to beat that, even with their short program lead.

 

[slicekw]

I believe the phrase is “commanding lead”.

 

[CantALoop]

Riku's reactions are priceless! At least she stayed on her feet this time

 

[Colonel Green]

Tremendous pressure for Minerva and Nikita, they will have to skate CLEAN and hope PCS can be as high

They got spotted seven points in the short program.

 

[Skaterbob]

I don't know why they even use music. They skate right through it. Quickly at least...

 

[her grace]

I suppose someday I'll have to watch Gladiator just to have a frame of reference for skating programs.

That’s my thought on Moulin Rouge

 

[tangerine dream]

They really couldn’t have done anymore

I mean, she could have rotated the sal, but they gave her full credit anyway so it wouldn't have changed the score.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

The 3s was absolutely definitely two footed and underrotated. I would question the rotation on the throw as well.

The tech panel is scared to death after men lp and gives points like candy.

But since for a change it's going to a team I like....

Time to switch from USA Network to NBC if you are in the !
