Papadakis/Cizeron #10 - Waacking All The Way To Beijing

[taz'smum]

It's funny how she says she always watch Gabbi skate as a coach and never as a mother. Interesting how she can dissociate even if she hasn't been coaching them for a long time. Is it usual?

Tiff's dad did the same while he was alive but of course she was only a junior back then.

Interview by Hiro Yoshida on Europe On Ice

Papadakis and Cizeron: Embracing Uncertainty

By Hiro Yoshida After just missing out on gold four years ago in PyeongChang, Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron are back on Olympic ice this week in Beijing seeking the one title they need …

[bcash]

They sound relaxed and excited in just the right balance approaching these Olympics. Looking forward to their performance in less than 20 hours.

 

[Judy]

Best of luck to them! I am a V&M fan but have no issues at all saying that because I mean it.

You realise Virtue/Moir are no longer competing right?

 

[Judy]

You realise Virtue/Moir are no longer competing right?

Ummmmm what do you think? A fan isn’t just about current skaters that are competing .

 

[Bigbird]

The suspense is real. Thankfully I cannot and will not be watching this live.

Yeah! I know the feeling ... I am already stressing ...

 

[Isabelle.G]

Yeah! I know the feeling ... I am already stressing ...

The same, yet I can't help it but keep watching the event... all the best of luck, G&G!

 

[Peepsquick]

The same, yet I can't help it but keep watching the event... all the best of luck, G&G!

I caved in too ...

 

[Orm Irian]

Well, I hope we're all feeling very happy and relieved right now?

They did a great job. Belinda sounded like she'd fallen in love.

 

[GreenGan]

Hahaha I sure do. I just LOVE how they set the tone in the beginning of their RD. You just know this couple is the real shit. Let's see how this competition continues but they've done really good : new world record baby !

 

[bcash]

A bit out of sync at the end of the midline but otherwise a very authoritative skate. They look relieved after the finish!

The Chinese commentators mentioned how big their pattern looked from the vantage point of the commentating seats—much bigger than all the previous teams’. How clear and deep and curvy the tracings their edges left on the ice were. And also how fast they skated.

 

[Bigbird]

The score should be higher !!!!Rarrrr...

 

[bcash]

Did they lose many levels? The tech box showed at least two elements under review.

Don't know I couldn't watch. I just saw the scores and demanded more. You know because I can .

 

[Orm Irian]

They got Level 3s in the pattern and Midline Step according to Jackie Wong, who gets to see the level calls as they go through.

 

[GreenGan]

No couples got a level 4 in the pattern step or the midline step on this RD. We'll see that at World maybe.
PCS thay have 39.18 and S/K 38.59.

 

[Orm Irian]

They got Level 3s in the pattern and Midline Step according to Jackie Wong, who gets to see the level calls as they go through.

ETA: I misread Jackie's tweet - according to the protocols they got 1MB4YYYY (yay!), the Level 3 was on the pattern type step.

And sixteen 10.00 scores in the components.

any vids yet, by chance?

 

[Khaleesi]

Just saw P/C’s RD and it was stunning. Stunning performance and stunning program. So happy for them. (And fans I hope that’s helped dissipate some anxiety )

 

[Bigbird]

Waiting for video!! Heard Averbuch was amazed!

 

[Mayra]

I never realized how much I wanted this for them until they took their starting position. Those 10's in PCS!! This is one of those programs I'm going to watch and rewatch for years to come.

But they cut all the commentaries at the end and I like those commentators argh

 

[Bouffantrex]

Papadakis/Cizeron, simply the best

They definitely deserve more than a two point lead, although I must admit the Russians skated very well today.

The Russians should be third. I saw the evidence. That was complete disservice to my intelligence.
