The Dance Hall 13: When You Dance on the Ice and Your Feet Twizzle Twice, That's Amore

One thing I found odd at worlds: Tanith commentated instead of being with Green and Parsons. Yes, Guerlein is perfectly competent, but I found it odd. Unless she was commentating from the U.S. and needed to be home near the kids?? Or needed the $$??

The NBC commentators weren’t in Prague. Only Andrea Joyce was on site for interviews.

Zuerlein's been with MIDA teams all year. Charlie White wasn't always with him.

I actually thought it was a tape delay the way they were almost preparing the audience for Fear and Gibson's finishing off the podium

As others have said, she stayed in the US. Tracy Wilson probably declined doing Worlds, and since it really was a one-day gig, the money was probably worth it.

Parsons and Green have plenty of experience, so Guerlein with them was just fine. And Tanith may have signed the contract before they knew Chock/Nates weren’t going to Worlds.

He’s also the most experienced coach of the MIDA (former) trio. Didn’t he also help coach Green/Parsons while they were at WISA?

Zuerlein started coaching after he and Chock split after 2011 Worlds; it was at Shpilband/Zoueva's rink.
