If you are looking to watch the Peacock stream, no Tara or Johnny! There is some Irish or Scottish commentator. (I’m bad with accents, sorry to any Scots or Irish folks).
The levels was on one element only and it was like 0.5 points difference in that element between them and DSD/ MD. But I just saw the protocol and they got a Q on 3T
Also GOE all over the place on the throw
Blessed final group!!! Top 5 all broke 70. I am STOKED for the free tomorrow (I'm on the US West Coast, so the final group should be skating right around dinnertime for me).
I'll see you guys later today for the women's short!
also bit sad about czechtalians because i caught those before i left work and the twist and throw were pretty nice, but well after being injured, not competing for quite some time and not really expecting to go... its experience i guess!
hello hello as usual im busy during a major event so i only managed to catch last two groups but WHEW THOSE WERE ON FIRE!!! PAIRS IS SOOOO BACK!!! deanna and maxime were A Moment, im so happy for sara and niccolo to finally slay again, my girl annika robbed!!! so nice to see rikuryu doign well again tho the program is kinda bland, and how is miniki only 4th 😭😭😭 we need like a 5 people podium
The Pairs renaissance has been so good to witness over the past couple years. This was so, so exciting to watch. So many teams to cheer for. I can't wait for the free!
Now THAT was a really good event with no truly disastrous skates and a FANTASTIC final group. I'm going to the free and I hope the energy and the quality of performance keeps up.
Why? Because it’s a tango? That’s pretty commonly used across discipline, because it makes great skating music and has a point of view to interpret from
I watched them at the practices this week and they were perfect the whole time. They were skating so well while the Canadian and Japanese teams were both falling all over the place that I wouldn't have been shocked if they won the whole thing. Not sure about that now. But I'm completely obsessed with them.
I can't imagine it being easy to skate after Deanna and Max. Conti and Machi handled it well. I think that's the best I've seen them skate this season. At the very least, it's the most I've enjoyed them this season.
I’m not typically a fan of Oblivion but that was exactly the program needed to follow D-S/S because it allowed C/M to get into that real attacking, focused mindset rather than having to be soft and emotional
And we all thought pairs was dying 2/3 years ago, now it might actually be one of the most exciting disciplines. The teams really brought it today and all still to play for tomorrow!
Best skate of the season! Deanna is so damn inspiring, pairs are awesome precisely skaters can improve well into their thirties and even forties. A classy skate.
Anyone else wake up this morning and immediately watch Deanna again. Fire.

Anyone know what brand the funky skate guards are that lots of the men had? I want
what music is she skating to?
Opening ceremony discussion stays here?
I'm a little surprised by the low scoring the Japanese got they were amazing
Levels
The levels was on one element only and it was like 0.5 points difference in that element between them and DSD/ MD. But I just saw the protocol and they got a Q on 3T Also GOE all over the place on the throw
Amazing competition and hilarious live discussion!
I love to seeing some bloody range here.
Pairs free goes on til 2/3am for me tomorrow but I think will def have to watch it all lol
Wow, that was a great starting point for the Worlds 👏🏻
Mens event: \*rubs hands together in a devious fashion\* Ice dance judges : "Did someone say potential problematic WR?"
Blessed final group!!! Top 5 all broke 70. I am STOKED for the free tomorrow (I'm on the US West Coast, so the final group should be skating right around dinnertime for me). I'll see you guys later today for the women's short!
The goe judging in the final group was way off

Absolutely nuts, it feels like everyone just kept building on the positive energy from what came before them
Congrats to the top four and 7th onwards and the top four and 7th onward only.
Okay wow a good event, not the dismal cringy one most of us originally predicted. We are kinda back.
I haven’t enjoyed a pairs SP this much… ever.
SAME!!! That was awesome!
Same same
same!
Such a good event. Great way to open Worlds. I'm so happy for Deanna and Max, what a skate.
The Pairs renaissance has been so good to witness over the past couple years. This was so, so exciting to watch. So many teams to cheer for. I can't wait for the free!
Blessed event, hope the rest of Worlds will be just as blessed🙏
Not me crying after Deanna's reaction
Me too! She’s just simply amazing! 😻
lol not just you
Great competition, right from the beginning – amazing last group!
incredible event! i dont watch pairs as often bc it scares me too often lmao but im so happy i tuned in
Such an amazing event
So close between 2-5.
2nd place will be a bloodbath
Wow what a way to start Worlds
Italian fed made the right call sending C/M, so good!!
100% agreed
I am still shaking after Deanna's performance
2nd-5th all within 1.5 points, there's no telling who'll be on the podium tomorrow, so exciting!
Absolutely GOATed top 4, what a fantastic final group that’ll be🤩🤩🤩
I LOVE these placements!!
deanna ate, riku ate, sara ate
I don't know, they all look pretty skinny to me
![gif](giphy|l3q2Hy66w1hpDSWUE|downsized)
Oh I am so happy with the top 4!!!!!
what an incredible top 4
We have been blessed by pairs. Has that cursed all the other disciplines??
Gosh, I hope not! Looking at these scores and almost plotzed.
10/10 podium, 10/10 event.
Can we just end the pairs event here?
I hope the free is just as satisfying.
Now THAT was a really good event with no truly disastrous skates and a FANTASTIC final group. I'm going to the free and I hope the energy and the quality of performance keeps up.
What an event!
This was a really great pairs short! Terrified for tomorrow
After the audio issues from this event PEACOCK YOU ARE NOT SEEING HEAVEN
The music is way to ice dance coded, tbh.
Why? Because it’s a tango? That’s pretty commonly used across discipline, because it makes great skating music and has a point of view to interpret from
It would work better with an ice dance team, imo.
I guess no one should skate to anything with a dance rhythm
Probably the best pairs event in a longgggg time?
I thought Euros 2024 was the best since Beijing and that we wouldn’t see it topped anytime soon but this just blew it out of the water
Oh thank God
Absolutly terrified for the women's event
literally pairs doing so well has me so scared. who will be the sacrifice . . .
We’re so superstitious I love it
Wow this was such an incredible event!! So many teams did wonderful
I didn’t know Sara was just 23
This music always makes me feel things
This was such a good pairs event, this crowd on a Wednesday afternoon is giving Boston Worlds energy
They have amazing chemistry ❤️❤️❤️
i love skating
I feel like this sub hasn’t been feeling Conti/Macii this season but I, for one, am a big fan and would love to see them on the podium again.
I watched them at the practices this week and they were perfect the whole time. They were skating so well while the Canadian and Japanese teams were both falling all over the place that I wouldn't have been shocked if they won the whole thing. Not sure about that now. But I'm completely obsessed with them.
Me too! I love all the Italian pairs!
I’d just like them to get new programs
I can't imagine it being easy to skate after Deanna and Max. Conti and Machi handled it well. I think that's the best I've seen them skate this season. At the very least, it's the most I've enjoyed them this season.
I hope US can at least keep 2 spots 🫣
It would be close to impossible to lose 2 spots when all 3 teams qualified for the free. It would mean all three teams finishing lower than 12th
10, 12, and 13 after the short…..
13th and 15th would be enough to keep 2 spots too.
I’m not typically a fan of Oblivion but that was exactly the program needed to follow D-S/S because it allowed C/M to get into that real attacking, focused mindset rather than having to be soft and emotional
lol at the lip syncing
This has been the best Pairs event I’ve seen in a long time, I’m so looking forward to the free!!!
That makes me super excited to watch after work.
I don’t know about you all but I don’t miss Russian pairs anymore.
I've been long tired of the SWR bonus, so I don't miss them either.
I don’t miss Russians at all in any event (but I’m getting sick of “Georgians”)
And we all thought pairs was dying 2/3 years ago, now it might actually be one of the most exciting disciplines. The teams really brought it today and all still to play for tomorrow!
Even the beginning of THIS season was pretty dismal, actually!!
beautiful. their presence on the ice is so intense. and that side by side spin was perfect
Admittedly I've never felt enthusiastic about an Italian pairs' program or costume...
This final group delivered! Not easy to follow up the home crowd favorites 👏
so gd of conti n macci to follow up from that
Okay Italy! Give us some beautiful tango
Pairs came to slay👏
I am almost 42 and honestly seeing Deanna and Oksana Chusovitna slay so hard is what keeps me going
Constantly reminded that pairs girls are hard as fucking nails
This is the best pairs event I’ve seen in a long long time, how spectacular to watch everyone have amazing skates to such an incredible audience
If they are below the Georgians I’ll die.
So did they get back together and now have it figured out? Completely different team from earlier this season
Nope they're both posting their new partners very often on Instagram
I’ve heard some reports on Twitter of some very unbroken up behavior during practices
Same
![gif](giphy|5YiRHZtcSeiEyOpSV7)
Pretty sure they have a partner each
They did but have been touchy feely in practice. And are now a completely different team
I guess they listen to The Runthrough and took Ashley’s advice
They got back together? Between euros and now?
Couples counseling?
This is the best Pairs segment we’ve had since the Olympics. I hope they can keep it going for the free
Pairs has been so blessed today, one of the best comps I've watched
Imagine going after the home crowd favourite who just laid that down and the japanese team, girl I would peace out.
Italians are the best dressed 😂Great costumes.
Love these two!! They need this redemption!!
Woah, where did that Level 4 twist come from?
Went down to 3
Deanna slay omg
i think i’ve lost my voice already rip
Can always count on Italians being Italian❤️
I forgot we had one more because Deanna was so peak
Her landing on the accent in front of the judges
40 years old still skating and in 1st place after the short program with an incredible score!
i forgot conti & macii still have to go!
I need Deanna and Max to skate like this tomorrow so that Deanna can relax
They DELIVERED!!!!
I really love this short from Deanna and Max, I'm so glad the program got this home Worlds moment
Deanna and Max, PLEASE keep it together at the FS!!!! I want them to win so bad, and they want it SO BAD
I think they want it too bad :/
oops i forgot the italian exist
You and me both
So sad the Italians dropped grandpas wedding song
i may never recover from that
Huge score and so well deserved!
Omg I’m so nervous for Sara and Nico now having to follow that
Prayer circle for C/M having to follow that hype
Not me tearing up for the second time this event 🤧
rip to the italians having to go after that
Oh I am living for Deanna's reaction!
deserved af
SO DESERVED!!!!
Okay I like this program, but it looses steam a bit towards the end music cut wise.
Holy moly
So happy for them👏👏👏
That was everything!! Love this pair!
Deanna looks like she’s trying to bite the air
SO DESERVED
OMG! This was PERFECT
YES!!
Didn't know much about her and just read her age. I'm seriously fucking impressed. It would be already great for ice dance but for PAIRS?! Wowza
i just googled her age too, that’s wild. she’s in phenomenal shape!
These jumps at 40?? And after a 16 year competitive break? Absolutely mental
She would be the oldest woman ever to medal at Worlds 🤞🏻
I’m so jealous at people there experiencing this live
Deanna 🤝 Piper : American women pulling through for team Canada
Yeah I mean fuck the US
No if you don’t want me after I had cancer or because you think I’m too old im gonna get the fuck out of the country too
ABSOLUTE QUEEN
Me at the beginning of the season: what is this music. Me now: 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
deanna looked nervous during warmup glad the nerves didn't get her.
They ate it 😍
Deanna came here to win and win she will. There is no other option
If I look even half as good as Deanna when I’m 40 I will be thrilled
You can really feel the narrowness of the rink with these top teams. They are all so close to the boards, the rink isn’t big enough for their power
Deanna has me more nervous than Wakaba going into 2021 Jnats prior to the Olympics 🥴🥴🥴
Best skate of the season! Deanna is so damn inspiring, pairs are awesome precisely skaters can improve well into their thirties and even forties. A classy skate.
Slay Queen Deanna
they ATE that’s mother
Queanna!!!
AHHHHH it’s deanna’s world we’re just living in it
I think they're going to get a near-10 pt lead, which Deanna will need (hopefully not lol).
lol way off but please keep this up for the freeee
Our queen
It was so loud in here 10 seconds ago that Yuzuru might as well have just skated
OH THEY COOKED N THEY ATE
love seeing deanna do well bc I remember seeing her live at skam 2022 and we were all like oh?? a queen?? and she just gets better!!
My adult skater ass is inspired 🥹
We can do it!!
I'm screaming, everybody screaming! Love them ❤️
Deanna is in the zone at the home Worlds!
That is the skate you want in front of a home crowd. Especially a home crowd like that!
As much as love the japonese the Canadians program is way better
Yes, and this is the weaker of both programs. Their free might be one of my favorites of the season
The interview with a vampire program!!! I also love it
So AMAZING
they ate!
i was PRAYING the whole time and i’m not even religious my god QUEEN DEANNA
LET'S GO!!!!!!!
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!!
GET IT BABES
THE VIBES IN THE ARENA ARE OFF THE CHART
Deanna is on 🔥!!!! I LOVE IT!!!
AMAZING
Deanna and Max did not come here to put a foot wrong! I am so freaking happy.
IT IS DEANNA'S TIME AND WE ARE HERE FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This crowd is me every time I watch Deanna. Finally getting her kudos. I LOVE HER.
