Chock & Bates [fan thread #2]: "All Paths Have Led to This Moment"

[vireo]

I noticed they had tweaked the free dance some. I especially like that they are now moving during the assisted jumps. Looking forward to seeing that when Madi and Evan are back up to speed.

Looks like Madi and Evan might be featured on the next Chasing Gold episode on NBC - Sunday, Feb 18 at 2 ET

That loopy take-off is cool.

Congratulations to Madi & Evan for a great performance of their Queen RD

Live performance was amazing! Better than at Nats. Lots of energy in the arena and partial standing O. Hoping for another awesome skate tomorrow!

Congratulations to Madi and Evan on their 2nd world title! And first Americans to successfully defend a world title!

 

[Lanie]

So so so happy for them!!!

I'm so happy for Madi and Evan. It's always difficult to defend a world title, and C/B had an uphill battle considering the unpropitious tech panel they faced. I'm just tickled pink they were able to do it.

I’m so mad that Skate Canada didn’t promote the small medal ceremonies in any way so we had no idea we could attend at the Fan Fest. This should have been in the daily email we received from the arena.

I Shazam'd the music for the new exhibition and it's "Once I Was Loved" by Melody Gardot. Apparently, Hubbell/Donohue also did a show program to it back in 2022.

I don't think the fashion police would've liked the placement of the bottom rose, LOL.

Same! So many things I found out at random without any announcements or emails!

Madi's eclipse post on IG was perfect.
