In between the individual practices, all the skaters meet up to rehearse the opening and finale:
We love this relaxed, funny athmosphere!
At a gala everything is pretty ectic, the rhytms are crazy and the TVs wouldn't allow any lateness! But apart from a slight moment of panic when Massi realized he'd forgotten Fede's dress at the hotel (promptly picked up by a friend sent to their room, while the guys were on the ice for the opening!), the exhibition is perfect as usual, an ideal conclusion to these incredible days in Torino.
In the break between the two halves of the gala, Massi and Fede are kidnapped in the RAI studio for some more interviews:
And only after going off-air there is time to remember a promise made to our journalist friend Andrea Fusco... a photo with him and the Toponiglio:
Talking about Toponiglio Franklin... having had its facebook page mentioned on air must have had quite an impact, because as soon as we got back to the hotel after the gala, this is what we found:

That's it for this update... next stop, it will be our press review of the event! Stay tuned!
