Nice opening combo from Eva Lotta

That's interesting. Ted kept commenting on how well connected they seemed to be with each other. Guess they're both on the same wavelength?

Oh Riku and Ryuichi are absolutely adorable in the kiss&cry....lovely skate from them. At least Brooke & Benjamin got a score I would expect for a fall in the program.

....how on earth did Spencer and Emily get those scores when their tech box was half red? 😑

Didn't get a chance to watch ice dance or men's SPs, and just based on other ppl's commentary, maybe I don't want to watch? In any case, I'm here now for pairs FS.

Oh, I'm not worried. She won Skate America with ease. She usually looks very relaxed and happy on the ice so seeing her be nervous is rare. I expect she'll come back stronger tomorrow. And that is it for me tonight. I'm off to bed. Enjoy watching the rest!

Wow, Kaori looks nervous Seems like she's rushing her jumps...

That was an absolutely gorgeous skate from Yelim Kim. What an Ina Bauer!

Audrey just impressed me with that opening combo jump

Just like being in the arena, then - no rest for the weary... I'd like to watch ice dance and men's but I suspect I'll be asleep before ice dance can start. It is late.

Oh, that's true. She's gained some power.

Oh Amber is very unhappy with her skate. She did so well at Skate America but tonight wasn't it.

@Umebachi it is, but since I'm working a late shift at the hospital this week I got home from work about 10 min before the ladies started. So I figured I'd lean into it and just stay up. But what time is it where you are? I believe you mentioned last week during Prologue that you're now back in Japan? I think it would be way harder to give a lecture at this hour than to watch skating 😅

Second group of ladies.. tbh the only one I'm interested to watch is Kaori.

Really not her day 😕

Watanabe was the big surprise at Skate Canada. Oh dear, the 3A...:( Oh no...

I don't think I've seen Olga skate before. She has some nice speed. Jumps need work though

ISU has Ted. I'd rather have Shizuka.

Ted is saying Sumiyoshi-san got Level 4s on her StepSeq and spins...very nice! ...wow that dress (Eva-Lotta's) is a statement 😐

My goodness, Rion's costume is breathtaking! ISU is streaming it on their YT channel: https://youtu.be/WFiegbmpK4I @Umebachi AH, to be able to watch it on TV instead of searching for streams. 😊

Anyone watching? RikuRyu just landed a gorgeous SP and are leading by 14 points Women's SP just about to start

Just catching up to the Gala now...Roman killed it - opened with a 4S, perfectly executed.

Hey look what Elladj got! Nice to see him getting some $$$ recognition

Fear and Gibson sure had fun with that skate! And the home audience loved them so much. Very nice!

That was absolutely gorgeous from Zachary & Marjorie
