If you have hulu as I do, I searched for 'Figure Skating' and they have all of the above organized in a series labelled '2025 World Figure Skating Championships.'

 

[sk9tingfan]

No Peacock tiles found yet. Are they blocking all early skaters and practices?

 

[terisa]

No coverage of Pairs SP that I can find...

 

[Aceon6]

No coverage of Pairs SP that I can find...

I suspect they are waiting for the final schedule.

This is the link for the CBC Streaming schedule - note that the items stated as "CBC Sports:" will echo TV coverage on CBC; some items are flagged as "GEM" and appear to be a "best of" for each of the first 3 days:

[maureenfarone]

All of the Peacock tiles are up. Pairs SP start time is 6:15 p.m. There are a lot of practice cam tiles and a couple that say Rinkside practice cam. The one really strange tile is the Pairs FS which shows a label of "112 Fairgrounds Louisiana Derby" but the description is for the Pairs FS.

The Women and Men FS have a regular tile and also a World Feed tile.

The first three practices on Tuesday appear to be on the USFS' YT page -

Tuesday, March 25 -
Women's Practice - 6:30am EDT - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SzT_HWMTXo
Men's Practice - 10:30am EDT - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4AtzP5dTuE
Pairs Practice - 3:15pm EDT - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB8OB_ml5Jg

So, at this point, the only practice stream that is missing is the Tuesday evening Ice Dance practice.

Well, considering his some practiced I’ve seen have looked, Maybe it’s a creative naming to attract viewers.

Sunday March 30th 3-5 PM CDT (Other time zones check your listings.)
I'm assuming this is a recap of the World Championships but for now the listing just says "Patinage Artistique"

Peacock practice cams and competition tiles are up



It appears the tiles are labeled…… practice cam, rink side and the actual competitions. There also appears to be the usual world feed for the competition in addition as well.

There are total of 19 tiles that start with the practice and the rink side tiles and all the way to the gala.

Per Jackie's IG Live earlier tonight, there are going to be 4 practices - 1 each day - with commentary. Based upon his list, I've concluded that the ones labeled "Rink Side Cam" are the ones with commentary. The ones labeled "Practice Cam" will not have commentary.

It also seems that, due to the length of the day tomorrow, the USFS/Peacock/NBC are foregoing a live stream for tomorrow night's ice dance practice.

 

[DORISPULASKI]

Are the ISU Tiles up yet?

 

[Jay42]

The ISU streams are currently geoblocked in Canada I just jumped to Brazil with my VPN and they're up if I'm in Brazil.

 

[DORISPULASKI]

Would you please post the tile links here?

 

[Jay42]

In order of competition start:

Women's Short
Pairs Short
Men's Short
Pairs Free
Rhythm Dance
Women's Free
Free Dance
Men's Free
Exhibition

All of which, unless they change it, will only work in Canada with a VPN.

Grrrr .... I wish they wouldn't do that. I know we have CBC but I usually watch on ISU YouTube. Enjoy the commentary better. But it is what it is. The streams might become available later .... wouldn't be the first time they've appeared at the very last minute.

It's the same commentary on Gem as on ISU YT

Yeah I'm in the same boat re: commentary. Though I've also frequently found that Gem can lag behind YouTube a bit. I'm going to wait until later tonight to see if the streams show up before I go through the process of plugging in my extra long HDMI cord since the space between my TV and the shelf next to it is super tight.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I’m trying to get so much done so I can have some free time the next few days, I’m sure this has been mentioned already, but who will be commentating on the peacock feed?

Usually it's the same as the ISU Worlds feed unless you choose the NBC/USA/E! live streams.

 

[Wyliefan]

I'm so bummed I'm going to miss most of the women tomorrow and the men on Thursday. Got to be at the office both days, and I can't have my phone with me for most of it, so I won't even be able to follow FSU.

 

[MacMadame]

I've also frequently found that Gem can lag behind YouTube a bit.

Peacock too. Sometimes I know the scores before they get announced because Wedgie data already updated and I've got it up on my laptop.

From this CBC article:

https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/winter/figure-skating/isu-world-figure-skating-championships-2025-1.7492861

CBC Sports has Canadian-focused coverage on Gem, hosted by Brenda Irving and featuring analysis from Kurt Browning and Carol Lane.

Based on what Asher & Brenda said in the preview video and on the schedule below, this seems to be a once-per-day "highlights" show.

What is shown as "CBC Sports" in the schedule represents what will be on TV and concurrently streamed.

USA Today article with some useful into, although US centered in terms of identifying when specific skaters are on the ice
