I had the same thing pointed out to me, that's what I meant. I figured
wedding was for that goal too.And even if things pan out with high scores at 4CC, it doesn't mean anything sticks in the sport and it doesn't mean any momentum holds. You watch every last competition. You know this. L/B and C/P weren't in the same competition, either, and we ALL KNOW technical panels can make or break scores.
I'm guessing that before FB/S retired, making the Can 2026 team seemed out of the realm of possibility, so they'd be waiting it out to 2030 either way.

As long as they do the Bugs Bunny version.
Ok. I'll probably kill myself.
I know all of that, but I also know that these top 3 Euros FDs are underwhelming to say the least. And the result here would have been flipped between LopBri and FearGib if not for the latter's twizzle mistake in the RD. Which means that, once again, this season, they've benefitted from another team's errors to finish higher than expected.
Only if skated by Jean Luc Baker and Lewis Gibson. I’d pay $$$ to see that.
LopBri's program goes nowhere. It lacks punch and impact, especially at the end.
Fai Rumore, si.
OMG we are in agreement!
I have an advantage in that since H/B retired, (and H/D before that) there are several teams I really like but not uber. It keeps me from being caught in the Matrix.
Trifecta here. How weird is that?
Quad. No matter the material, the quirk comes through.Trifecta here. How weird is that?
Surprised to see a "Cypriot" couple. Of course they are Russians. And they probably don't train in Cyprus much.FD protocols - https://results.isu.org/results/sea...------FNL-000100--_JudgesDetailsperSkater.pdf

We were in Cyprus several years ago and all the real estate signs are in Russian. Good place to buy property and get EU entry.
They've been Cypriots for several years. They moved from Russia to Italy for training after the start of the Ukraine war. I'm pretty sure her parents actually live in Cyprus - she routinely posts on her IG pics of her visits to her family there when she isn't in Italy training.
I'm pretty sure they do. Cyprus is full of rich Russians. I'm from there.
Finn #1s basics so lovely. This is dance. Not posing around the ice... like the next couple.
Was going to write the same thing. There should have been a larger PCS gap in favour of Turkkila/Versluis. I still like Fear/Gibson and enjoy watching them, but they need to find a way to re-capture the excitement of when they first burst onto the scene, particularly given they have made some technical progress. The Finns should have been ahead of them today. I want them to do well, but they're never going to be the second coming of Torvill & Dean.
Actually he should know about balance points as he used to coach pairs (perhaps still does?).
At best, LopBri are replacing FearGib as the top Euro team after GuigFab. And without either a French or British judge on the panel at Worlds, both are severely disadvantaged from holding off LajLag (in the case of FearGib dropping to 5th at Worlds) and CarPon (in moving up to 6th ahead of LopBri).
