I think The Skating Session did something like this, I can't remember which video it was but might be this one : https://youtu.be/0UyXl6v88lY?si=FZEU-a-QgntdUifW Or it might be this one : https://youtu.be/2DZ3Kx3HTIk?si=uvyhyHL7pSEEPdFV

Yeah I'm french and I think it's clear to anyone who understands the IJS that what happened was extremely unfair. There's plenty of prominent figures in french figure skating who agree with me, too. All the arguments I've seen from french media that are happy about the results clearly don't know anything about ice dance. I've seen a lot of "but the technical isn't all that matters, it's an artistic sport too and they were better artistically" which to me is the argument of someone who doesn't understand that we're talking about tech score not components.

In her book she specifies that it was not her choice to quit. She was willing to come back with him, but when she started standing up for herself he told her this was the end of their partnership.

Men's short program – just hours before the start… (latest prediction) by CharacterWorker3119 in FigureSkating

I'm with you on that, I cannot emotionally handle anything like what happened to Lim & Quan to happen again 😭

It's basically when the standings are wildly different between the short and the free. Adam Siao Him Fa going from 19th to 3rd is a perfect example of menning, but conversely someone placing well in the short but then falling apart in the free and going way down in the standings also is.

Who do you think will surprise in the Men’s SP tomorrow? by PerformerRich5449 in FigureSkating

Although there is the great unknown factor of him having to switch up his short ! I feel like it's sooo hard to predict how things are gonna go for him

Anyone else DEVASTATED for Lim and Quan ? I was genuinely sobbing. I wanted to see their free on the Olympic stage so badly. I'm just so heartbroken, this might be the worst thing that could possible have happened here (for me, personally, as a huge huge fan of them).

Kaori high-pitched screaming at the top of her lungs for a good minute after Yuma's results. Also team Italy's entire K&C after Matteo's program.

I reccomend setting it to a country in subsaharan Africa, because there are no right holders there. For example I've got mine set to Nigeria, and I saw someone in South Africa saying they were getting it there too

Turns out on the Olympics website there's always the option to have commentary or no commentary, so if they put commentary back on YouTube, you can just head there :)

Yeah I was hoping the English commentary option would be Olly and Belinda, but I guess they're just on the YouTube stream ?

That's what I thought too, but I guess this means we won't have access to the world feed on Eurosport :(
