The leader landed a triple axel in her program today - with a slight bobble on the exit and a reduction in the base value since last year (from 8.5 to 8), it only earned her 7.73 pt.

The video of her SP: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GgFLhp_dTc

That was nice. Has she landed the 3X before, I mean without a bobble,... (i.e. cleanly)?

She has been landing them recently in practice and, I believe, in test skates in Russia.

Then she'll have it soon and it'll be solid for her.

The Rhythm Dance was carried out under somewhat bizarre conditions this morning - there was yellow confetti falling from the ceiling repeatedly; the referee actually had to stop some programs and they had to do an extra resurface between the 1st & 2nd groups. In addition, there was a bird flying around, apparently it was a Blue Tit and some viewers gave it high marks for speed and flow as it flew past the judges

The situation has not been fully corrected and the pairs FS is about to begin!

Apparently there were no confetti "issues" during the pairs FS. That's very good news.

Tarasova & Morosov skated a new SP here, having received less than complimentary response to their program at the Russian test skates. The efforts on that over the past 10 days seem to have had a negative impact on their free skate which was skated better at the test skates than today.

A great skate from Moore-Towers & Marinaro! I loved the Pink Floyd part. Beautiful all around.

The Ladies & Ice Dance Medalists

What a lovely, sweet skate for Veronik Mallet. She started off with very precise movements and lost them towards he end, but since she's been off with an injury she can't be expected to have full conditioning. I expect she'll get stronger before too long and that'll be something for her... and the rest of us to watch.

It is so nice to see her back competing and doing so well - we need some good news in the CDN senior ladies area going forward.

Amen to that.

We all know that Justine in the niece of Isabelle Brasseure, right? But no pressure Justine. Just skate like you can and have fun.

Among the original entries were Roman Sadovsky & Aurora Cotop of Canada.

Note that Aurora Cotop is no longer competing but Roman Sadovsky is.

The ISU has noted that the pairs competition is not considered a "Challenger" event but an international competition only as the minimum number of entries for Challenger Series was not reached.

Men's medalists:
Daniel Grassl Italy - 230.50 - 1 - 1 (147.08 FS)
Roman Sadovsky Canada - 204.95 - 2 - 5 (127.04)
Tomoki Hiwatashi USA - 199.21 - 3 - 7 - (121.99)

===========================================

Congratulations to Roman Sadovsky on his silver medal!

The next-to-last Challenger Series event will take place this week in Estonia.

Carol Lane just tweeted out that Piper and Paul will be taking their programs before international judges again at Golden Spin.

Who wants to see “Vincent” again in one week? You can! P2 are off to Golden Spin in Zagreb. Thanks Skate Canada for making this happen. And thanks to everyone who has sent such wonderful messages of support, we skate for you

Their names are now on the entry list, as updated today. The names of Brasseur & Bardei no longer appear among the pairs entries.
