Senior Free Dance Saturday, split.

Here's the Order of Skate, with the names of the FD music, the teams' incoming scores and also I've copied the OD protocols over, for those who wanted them as part of the OD play by play. The codes are:


Sp Spin
RoLi Rotational Lift
SILi Straight Line Lift
CuLi Curve Lift
DiSt Diagonal Step
STw Synchronized twizzle
CiSt Circular Step
And the every popular
MiStNt Midline Step Not touching

I copied them by just typing them over so there may be a typo or two here:

No they are not the protocols for what I expect the FD to be

FD Amazonic by Mrvica; Best FD score 88.84 (SA)

I believe the judges have already picked the podium but will watch for errors to finalize the results. All these teams are looking very special. I don't expect any surprises.

Go Max & Trax, Jennifer & Daniil, Kim & Brent, and Jane & Todd!

Go Maddie & Keiffer!!!
And Morgan & Leif and Kim & Brent

Where did you find protocols?

A poster at FSU published a link. It was to a page on IN, and she said she had to look around for it.

1 Lauren Corry, Washington FSC Alexander Lorello, University of Delaware FSC
Score After OD 61.09 14 12
FD: Donna e mobile (Puccini); FD Score at Sectionals: FD: 64.07

She is in pale pink with a bare midriff and not so coherent designed black bondage straps.
He has a black outfit with white lines echoing the black lines somewhat, but it looks motorcycle punk.

Weak twizzles. Probably level 1
Straight line lift, she's in a back bend, he a spread eagle
They might not have had 6 rotations on the initial part of the spin. SP1 at best.
Overall they're slow.
A new team.
35.98 44.55 Total 60.53 Overal 121.62

Wester&Barantsev have withdrawn.

2 Jessica Perino, Los Angeles FSC William Avila, Ice Works SC
Score After OD 65.58 10 13
FD: I've watched it from Sectionals. It sounded like some kind of movie soundtrack. Maybe some not usual cuts of the Mission?
FD: Score at Sectionals: 64.11

Slow again.

She's wearing a strappy burnt red dress. He has a black pants and a burnt red dress.
She's very flexible, she gets in a real monkey puzzle in the first 2 lifts.
She was upside down in a pretzel moving her arms nicely.
Spin slow and labored.
Twizzles maybe level 3 though
Avila thanks Perino effusively in the KnC
35.35 26.42 Total 61.77 Overall 127.35

3 Emma Cyders, Seattle SC Ievgenii Krasniak, Chicago FSC
Score After OD 56.42 15 14

FD: Children of Dune Sountrack; Score at Sectionals: 59.12
Wild costumes. He has what appears to be a black hoodie tied by the arms around his neck.
The rest of the costume is black paints and lurid shiny blue stripes on a an illusion fabric shirt.
half her costume is pocohontas and the other half is more of the long stripes.
She unhoods him and off they skate. They need to go faster, but there are some interesting things in this program.

So I didn't take many notes. I was watching.
Both Fell on their final lift. I don't know whether it was a transitional lift or not.

Aww, any word on why? I hope they're ok.

4 Clare Farrell, Ice Works SC Charles Fishpaw, Ice Works SC
Score After OD 66.89 12 11
FD: Sarabande; FD Score at Sectionals: 65.02

Incredibly dull and ugly costumes. He has a loose shiny olive shirt flapping around over a black sleeveless t shirt and black tights. She has a dress that is supposed to
look gold but looks like brown rags. During their rotational lift, this was particularly unappetizing. In one of the lifts, he was unable to hold the balance on one foot.
They also did a handstand lift where she did not transition into the handstand at all smoothly.

It was not a bad dance, but kind of slow.

TES 38.82 PCS 29.59 FD 68.41 Overall 135.30 into first and a PB

There is no excuse for Ratko's knee pads/taping whatever it was showing. If it's white, take a skin colored sharpie and make it not white. Or wear an extra pair of tights. It's really not that hard.

5 Kellene Ratko, Chicago FSC Jonathan Harris, Los Angeles FSC
Score After OD 53.11 13 15
FD: Tango selections (never competed)

She's in a red tango with a dark pattern over it dress (train). She has big knee pads on and looks like she just came from soccer practice. She has the obligatory rose in her blonde hair. He's in a plain black V neck practice outfit. He's stable on one foot in what was either an straight line or curve lift. And he had a nice sit position in the pair spin. He really deserves a better partner. Her carriage and legs are not good.

Overall slow. There's no tango flicking motion. There's no smoldering sex appeal either, which should be in a tango.

It's their first FD performance though. Good luck to them in their later career.

TES 30.51 PCS 23.96 Total 54.47 Overall 107.58 They are not in last place! Good on them.

I wonder if Wester/Barantsev are going to retire from amateur competition now. It's been sad to see them start the season with such high hopes just to see them dashed during each competition.

there will be nationals on nbc in 15min, right? is there any nbc online stream? thanks in advance
