Three more groups to go... maybe I should make some tea... I don't I've seen Adam Hagara before. Great taste in music

Thanks!

Share? I couldn't find it. Brian looked really tense before the score went up. I think he had no idea how that was going to go. And you're right, Boyang used to be a lot faster. He's gotten hesistant since he had that ankle injury 3 years ago. Why did the livestream just give me 5 seconds of Eliska Brezinova's SP? Seriously, CBC, stop effing up your livestreaming

Oh, Boyang, that 2Lz... why are you such a heartbreaker? And not in a good way...good thing you can spin. I really want him to make it to the free skate

So I think my stream is lagging yours by a bit. He just got his score on mine Come on Boyang!!

Instead of using one big Zamboni machine, Saitama uses multiple tiny ones that look like a bit like the cars from Mario Karts

'He's not just waving an arm because somebody told him to' - Belinda minces no words and I'm fully on board with it

I csn't get used to Saitama using Mario Karts for zambonis. I keep expecting Princess Peach to show up

He's the kind of skater that gets invited to the gala just because

Yes. And Belinda wants us to know because she's said it 3 times

Takes some guts to come to Worlds with no quads and no 3A, these days. Hats off to him

The CBC stream just randomly cut to the women's replay for 5 seconds and cut back... ugh, I'm so annoyed I can't just watch this on YouTube

Gorodnitsky is such a meh skater for me. He's got decent technique and is reliably consistent... but his performance is just always very average. Not bad, but never stands out.

The announcer just cannot get the names right...

I felt like he was in over his head, being at Worlds. It was that kind of performance

Did you watch Torgashev's skate? Ooh, that Polish skater - Samoilov - that fall sounded like it hurt.

Oh, somehow I missed that news. Here's hoping he comes back even better than before.

Yeah, seems like it. I feel bad for Conrad. From the look on his face, he was SO ready...but it's really unlikely that six more skaters will do worse than him and push him into the top 24

Does anyone happen to know why Donovan isn't at Worlds?

Ahh poop... Conrad did his best but it looks like he can't catch a break... popped the quad toe...

Congratulations Riku and Ryuichi! Is anyone watching men? Conrad's in the first group and the commentator ( is it Chris? Or Mark? Not sure) has told a rather gruesome tale of how his last couple weeks went - apparently both a broken boot, and a broken blade, at separate times. But he's looking good in the warm up, so fingers crossed!

I did go and watch RikuRyu's SP. Absolutely wonderful, just as they've been all season. I can't help but hope that Yuzu was watching that - they're so good! I'm sure he'd love it.

Tell me about it. At this rste I'm not even going to bother watching, although I'm very excited for the two Canadian pairs being in top 6 after the short, and all 3 in the top 10!

Just FYI, the ISU has geoblocked their YouTube Worlds feed in Canada. CBC Sports has it: https://www.cbc.ca/sports/olympics/winter/figure-skating/live-stream-isu-world-figure-skating-championships-2023-1.6783937 The last few times I've tried to watch figure skating using the CBC Sports site, the stream has been bloody awful and unreliable af, so be warned.
