I just watched as they ran a recap promo, focusing on skates..someone had on the black/gold skates that Apolo had been wearing earlier this year. And how about the cam on the ice? Vertigo anyone?

That race was beautifully skated by Charles. I think that sends Kwak into first overall, with Charles in second...maybe Flou in third?

LOL Susie...I'll let you continue doing the honors for the finals. Hi Dove! I wasn't sure if you'd be checking in this weekend or not... Man, I haven't been keeping track of the points...but I'd say it's a crap shoot now as to who ends up with the overall podium finishes.

I agree, 19. I'm not a fan of the surface cam. you really can't get the feel for the action like the overhead.
And, that's it? No relay semi? and what was that a commercial for? Kung Fu Radish???

I don't mind the surface cam in limited doses. But it's no good for watching passes.
I wouldn't call either Apolo or JR out of the running just yet. But they are going to have to rock the 1000 and the 3000, and hope for some bad luck for the other top finishers.
