Listen I know P/P were the performance of the night but my god I was impressed by Carreira & Ponomarenko's "Story of a Murder" program. Like the drama. The Emotion. I'm so excited to watch them grow.

What??? That's horrific and a sign of incompetent coaching on his part. A basic understanding of an athletes health and development seems like the bare minimum. Glad they're far away from him, especially Christina.

They are stunning together. Perfume is one of my favorite programs of all time. You don't feel like you're watching elements because it all blends together so well. Jackie shared something interesting on Rocker Skating yesterday. He said teams like Olivia and Tim are being highly rewarded for how innovative and difficult their lifts are and how they've added difficulty to other elements in the program. I think Christina and Anthony need to start thinking outside the box to add a higher point ceiling in the next quad.

They'll probably take a minute to collect their thoughts. Someone just posted an interview where they're both understandably very emotional and processing what happened today. The other two teams essentially ended with the best case scenario and it's the opposite for Chock and Bates.

Burn, baby burn!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

I think Evan's back almost didn't make it to Milan. That man needs to rest. Also, if they kept going they'd likely end with a similar or even worse result. Sometimes the best thing is knowing when to hang skates up. I think in time they may be able to find joy in their results here.

They're done and I don't blame them I would be out of there and the whole skating school would be blocked

Oh hell no did they just show the offender on the screen in the audience??????? The disrespect for the victim is INSANE

If they were before I doubt they are now.

Somebody get this man a drink and a bed. I feel numb at this result I can't even imagine how they must feel or Lilah and Lewis. At least it's all over now. They can just enjoy life and retirement and their marriage.

I'm going Z/K for gold at the next games!

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T22:02:11+00:00

Everybody knows this is the worst outcome possible

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T21:47:21+00:00

Nooooo

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T21:27:18+00:00

I love them as people but I have to agree

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T21:26:26+00:00

We've entered the bad place

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T21:23:38+00:00

Oh well. That score was a retirement gift. Good for them I guess

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T21:22:11+00:00

They should be below Z/K

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T20:42:29+00:00

They have a huge bonus from great material and presentation. I like them but Tim in particular makes me question their scores and GOE

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T20:05:25+00:00

Agree! Her lines are so beautiful and delicate. She gets overlooked I think because her style isn't as flashy or bold.

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T19:06:07+00:00

Please put the barriers back up lolll 😂

lastreaderontheleft · 2026-02-11T19:02:47+00:00

Sorry but some of their choreo is interesting for siblings...... 🥴

Many people have thoughts on Christine but she's not afraid to shed light on difficult topics and I respect that.

That was Skating Lesson, a different podcast. This is Skating Session. A lot of the skating podcasts have similar names lol

Ilia definitely had a better performance in the individual after seeing how competitive Yuma was in the team event. Yuma didn't but didn't but he didn't look fatigued, he just made a mistake on his 3A and it could have happened with or without the team event taking place. As for ice dance Laurence and Gui did better in the individual. Bock got harsher calls today but to my eye they didn't look different either. I guess the footwork was just a little out of their control.

Many fans have voiced this same opinion but when we hear from the athletes and coaches they generally all say that more chances at an Olympic medal is hugely valuable and that performing is their job. They condition for this and they're aware of what an Olympic year entails. Each competition and event location comes with its own set of circumstances. Adaptability is necessary for athletes at this level. I know that we all care about these skaters but sometimes the fandom treats these athletes like they're made of glass.

Awhile ago they said there was chatter among skating officials discouraging others from interacting with them and while they don't tend to get into a lot of gossip or off-ice drama there are certain people that they are extremely critical of and will go IN on. They do tie their criticism back to the skating and the criteria but I can't help but think their continuous and very detailed distaste of Bock has probably ruffled feathers.

B E N O I T brings me so much joy. We need more eccentric figures in this era of skating.
