#TeamTrainwreck 11: Foreplay over Coldplay

[shah]

Grm to kick off worlds. Can it get any better?

Yes, with Kuchvalska qualifying #delusional

 

[SamuraiK]

There will come a day!

That day already came in 2015. She was 18th!! in front of world bronze Gabby and euro medallists Gede and Korpi plus olympians Schott, Russo and Toth. Dasa should have known that was her peak but kudos for continuing for the love of sport.

Can we give him an award for best karaoke? Eat your heart out Vik. https://instagram.com/p/Bew0x9PguZX/

Not bad at all plus looking pretty hunky and sensitive at the same time. Im gonna miss him.

 

[alchemy void]

Dasa is attempting 3toe3toe tomorrow! She’s had some good ones in practice, on instagram. SLAY!

I will die if she can qualify for the LP. This ia seriously my #1 wish for these Worlds.

 

[alchemy void]

And also sounds like Galustyan is coming back next season!

From her insta:

Stay healthy princess Anastasia, and see you in season 2018-2019

 

[Vagabond]

Galustyan did say after her Grand Prix event this season that she was taking time off from competition and to become a better skater. Maybe she'll even come back with the complete package to potentially be a top skater at Euros/4CC's/Worlds/Olympic level.

It's great you are still spot on.
I hope your invitation to the membership council on fiji island has already reached you.
Not that you will be all over again!

DASA! Loved that emotional K&C with her hot boyfriend. She’s in good position to qualify. (If it doesn’t happen I will have a meltdown here, don’t worry).

Kuchvalska, on the other hand... What the hell was she doing here over Nikitina? The jumps were bad like usual but all the non-jump elements were even worse...

It was a parting gift of Platanova to us. Just say thanks for the memories.

 

[SamuraiK]

Dasa did it!!! Great to see the Q next to her Name after Skating first and I'm so happy to be proven wrong. I'm finally going to see what her long programa looks like!!

Bossman WC Ladies SP recap (as it happened):

Grm - Best facials ever This will be a long wait for @alchemy void if that might be enough.

Leccardi - Suicidal fight in the combo MEEPOTS-shortlist! coach looks liked she wants to bitch around but maintains composure

Kropa - Gimme Golovkina!
Craine - I like her but I have seen that SP way too often.

Nagasu - Surprised US chicks are still in fight for 3rd spots somehow
Bell - Schott in penultimate flight
Higuchi - If JPN walks away with 2spots again, I will be so
Kostner - No words needed

Miyahara - Can't help, love her!

 

[Vagabond]

I hope your invitation to the membership council on fiji island has already reached you.

I will deem that to be my invitation. Thanks.

Not that you will be all over again!

Who, me?

 

[Ka3sha]

Hm, ok.. 50/50
Caro
Gabby
Stasia
Wakaba

 

[alchemy void]

Dasa and BF both gave me shoutouts on Instagram. #fangirl #notastalker #grmnation

 

[Vagabond]

If you can't make a big splash at Worlds, make a big splat instead!

 

[alchemy void]

rezinova - Gimme Queen U! But I guess @alchemy void was orgasming half through the program

You know it! She was fantastic, PB by over 6 points!

endrickx - This is so not my cup of tea.

Konstantinova - I fear for myself, as I realized how much invested I am

My ride on the Konstantinova train is really derailing. Radio would have been so much better, I hope she comes back next season and kicks ass.

 

[Ka3sha]

Konstantinova - I fear for myself, as I realized how much invested I am

Match TV showed a short interview with her (and with Maria and Alina of course) before the last group of pairs, she is such a nice young lady, really well spoken and articulate. She said that she was happy as a child when the Fed gave her a chance to compete at senior Worlds and that this really means a lot to her
But I fear that she won't have another chance after that SP :

I have no idea why, when and how I ended up been as invested in her skating as I am now.. probably it's because she's a St Pete girl

 

[rfisher]

As brutal as the Russian fed can be, this may well be her only trip to worlds. I hope she has a clean free skate and can be happy.

 

[rfisher]

The #trainwreckdarlings got a major gift from the judges. We'll see if they can hold on to that gift

What more can we say about the Empress? There simply isn't anybody like her. And Bruno is so done with the season, but he did his job. Once more big guy and you can rest.

The Austrians qualified! Tarasova was fierce. Guarise is in 4th place. The Leftovers and are ahead of Zhang. Canada has one team in the free So does the US, but we didn't have 3 to start and Deanna/Nate just missed the Q.

What a good event. I'd be fine if the podium stayed the same. I'd be ecstatic if one of team Italy knocked the French off the podium. Sorry, but Tar/Mor and Sav/Mass totally deserve to be on the podium so that leaves the French to knock off.

Now we know what @Hanna and @levineismine have been up to.

 

[SamuraiK]

So I managed to watch the first 3 ladiese groups early before work and then when I get home to watch unspoiled I found most of the videos have been taken down!! So unfortunately no reviews of the ladies SP though I would say Im sad KOR is in danger of losing the 2nd spot and kinda happy USA is about the lose the 3rd. Also sad for Konstantinova, after all the hate she got from being chosen I hoped she could shut the haters with a good results but noo.

I will add that im very pleasantly surprised with such a big and enthusiastic crowd for a Wednesday Morning SP. Good job Italy.

Do-hard award from what I managed to watch goes to the SRB girl: Dubinina, that outfit was hot.

Off to watch Pairs.

Bossman WC Pairs SP recap (as it happened:

HUN - We found 1/2
ISR - Always have a soft spot for him, can't say why. And I liek the SP.
USA2 - Zzzzh.
GER2 - Mari's curse did not work again I was already looking forward of her IG posts, giving congrats to everyone who knocked Ruben outta the FS
CZE - Good, lord how I love Bidar! I ignore her.
SUI - I miss Scherer's looks but I am pleased she is in no life danger any more. Good outing.

GBR - We found 2/2.
FRA2 - I really like them, a shame.
CAN3 - He is hot, they have some future I think.
JPN - Way better than he ever was with the world medalist.
CRO - Solid, but yap.
ESP - I want to remind for the years to come when everybody will be orgasming about them, @levineismine and I were here first
KOR - I like him, he needs a better, smaller partner.
RUS3 - First time Rogonov looked hot in a while. Without S/K worst of 3 russian pairs sitting in 7th, kudos
Leftovers - Hell yes, hate the new hair, but loved it. What a redemption! Now god knows how, get these 3 spots
AUS - Still not a team, but he is ****ing damn hot.
USA - I removed Chris from my IG list
CAN1 - I still can't with his posture and his overall skating. I just dislike. Sorry.
AUT - Happy they made it
ITA2 - I remain silent as the right Italians are leading
CAN2 - So CAN very likely down to 1 spot, ouch. She needs to do something, sorry, I know, we don't say anything like that in here, but she needs to.
CHN2 - Shame about the throw. I love love love the SP for them. Get these 3 spots
ITA 1 - Hell yes! Hell yes! This is so good! No words. Got robbed of final flight!

GER1 - #missiongold ! Go Empress!
RUS2 - If they medal, I will go mental, same as if DM/G medal
FRA1 - Boring, sloppy, totally overscored. I am off this train. Not right they got final group.

Random yesterday:

I so want a medal for DM/G! That's my main mission now that cutie Austrians are through to the FS! Enbert is hot, but seriously zzzzz and their free makes no sense, even after I had it explained. Forza! Enbert aside, Morgan is the most smokin' of all skaters right now, but they were seriously gifted yesterday. I trust on them to mess it up to make my wish come true. They're on the team, after all. Bossman may be off the train, but they aren't. Yet.

Duskova/Bidar are gems! Can't wait for them to slay and beat out all Russians in a few years for the first Czech title in pairs since K/N i 95. It needs to be done!

Aussies I don't get. PRK lady is sparkling so much. Him not so much. Ger2 are so cute, I like them a lot! Zoe Jones is inspiring, but she can't land anything anymore, maybe it's time to call it a day after all. I really don't care that much for M/H. I like them, he was having the time of his life yesterday, but...I don't know...I bit too much of everything. Empress looked STUNNING, better for each competition. I want what she's having. Gold for and the fab Bruno!


Ladies
Didn't know I was THAT invested in Caro. Zag skating right after shoved all that she is and what the sport is about. Poor, spunky Zag. I wish someone totally outside Eteri's camp would do choreo for her.

Poor Tiny Viking didn't make it, but I didn't really expect it either. I have a suspicion she might retire now, and make pretty babies with bro Helgesson. Can't remember much more right now. The three HORRID Carmen's killed me. But Dasa made it. Priorities, priorities!

 

[berthesghost]

Caro really, really needs to nail her TES points. I want her to end her career in a blaze of glory wearing the green catsuit.

this!

ITA about James/Cipres. Who knew that the best thing about them was the KnC drama.

 

[levineismine]

Ready to scream 'Vai Matteo' soon
Of course cheering loud for the other tt beloved as well as skaters from unlikely skating countries

How quickly they forget! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O24-Snksbkg

On another front, I see we can still count on Posterboy to come through for us one way or another.

 

[rfisher]

Dima. How much more of a team quality than to zayak. He made me so proud.
Danny: At least the boy landed on his ass and not his shoulder.
Michal: A 3-2 combo. Fall on the 4S after landing a brilliant one during the warm up.

Sometimes you just have to laugh to keep from crying.

 

[Vagabond]

Zayak in the Short Program, no less. Who does that?
