Too early and I'm just exhausted what with this week's events...

And tomorrow's FD:

Was out and about so missed ID. Checking youtube now... wanna see Anna & Luca!

Tessa and Scott were amazing, as always!  No WR this time, because Scott made a little mistake on the third part of their twizzle for which they only got level 3 this time - although I rewatched it many times with slow-motion and I think that Scott made the step-out right after the three revolutions were completed, which means that they shouldn't have lost a level there and they could have got level 4 on that. The technical controller is from France so of course he wouldn't make a decision in favor of the Canadians in a situation like this

 

It's great to see Anna and Luca back. I think their SD is very well choreographed and they performed it nicely today - especially Luca. I think they still need competition experience but they will be ready by the European Championships and then at the Olympics.

 

And it's good to see Penny and Nick back in the GP series, too. They weren't prepared to go to Japan and compete there but it's very good that they were invited because similarly to Anna and Luca, they also need to gain experience and compete as often as possible. Today they were slower and not as good as at Nebelhorn, but they can build on that and get better. Good luck for them in the FD, too.

In time for Chris and Kana..

I like this program so much.

This is a bit weird.. great to hear a Queen medley but doesn't seem to equate with the choreo/costume?

Go Anna/Luca

Go Tessa/Scott

Oh... the music just reminded me of Mao : (
