It will be live on Eurosport! I've looked at the Bios and we'll have a couple of R&J as always. BTW I've noticed that Routhier & Saucke-Lacelle are skating to Cinema Paradisio too!
I can't wait to see all the FD on TV!!!

Anyone know of any feeds where I could watch? I just signed on to Icenetwork and I've been blacked out, again. Location is the same as last night, but that doesn't seem to matter. And apparently now they put a $1.00 fee on the credit card (they take it off I think, but I still think it's completely ridiculous).

I doubt if any changes from results thus far will take place. Maybe a shuffling of 2nd and 3rd places.

So enjoy your favorites regardless of the results.

The Germans just finished. *That* is the silliest free dance music mishmosh I have ever heard!

Nikki GEORGIADIS / Graham HOCKLEY GRE
18 62.73

Coach: Carol Lane, Juris Razgulajevs, Jon Lane (in Canada)

Santorini Sunset by Pavlo
Aegean Rhapsody - Melancholia by V. Matoridis
Aegean Rhapsody - Zorba's Trance by V. Matoridis

They are doing an extended Greek folk dance-there are lots of nice folky choreographic touches, and some of them are interesting. They skated this well, for this level.

She's in an offwhite dress, he in white shirt and off white pants that wash out against the boards.

Backbend lift levered against him, transition to him in back arabesque on a curve-he's very steady. Good.

Circular kicks with legs very Greek

Twizzles, slow but done, not bad.

Low lift her with shoulder wiggles

Girl on stick rotational Lift ( her standing held at his arm's length)

59 points total 121.32 into 1st

Trewyn · Feb 27, 2009

It looks like Eurosport has just announced that they're NOT showing the Free Dance and highlights of Jr Worlds. Grmbl. That's just rude. Anyone know if French Eurosport is showing it?

dorispulaski · Feb 27, 2009

Nikola VISNOVA / Lukas CSOLLEY SVK
16 62.92

Coach: Hendryk Schamberger (in Germany)

Michael Jackson Medley

Starts to Billie Jean. They are in black and silver outfits (he has one silver leg side with little ties?

Moonwalky stuff

little trip

Ordinary footwork

Rotational lift with her in a ball over his arm
Pair spin with a layover

Really nice s/l lift with him crouched down and her in an extreme backbend

Lift with her in a good split

steps with close hold (oops they lose touch)

OK

58.11 total 121.03 in 2nd

??

It still says "Eistanzen Kür" at 19:10 in my schedule.

Trewyn · Feb 27, 2009

Belgium; It said 18.30 - 21.30 Free Dance; and just now on the 'up next' they said they were going to show Eurogoals and then Basketball, no mentioning of figure skating whatsoever.

dorispulaski · Feb 27, 2009

Charlene GUIGNARD / Guillaume PAULMIER FRA
17 62.78

Coach: Vincent Gironde, Celine Paulmier, Lucie Cosnuau

Musical Comedy Bharati

He's in brown pants and brown tunic with light brown sash. She has brown skirt, light gold top, diagonal shoulder to waist brown sash.

First part of this is quite empty and he twizzles several times by himself

Pair spin travels

This next f/w quite nice, but he's still twizzling by himself

nice rotational lift with change of pos to a haircutter pos

music faster

Change of position lift to end

The music was kind of cool and cheerful anyway

57.10 total score 119.88 into 3rd place

^^Belgium! You live just around the corner! I could go for a walk and would be in Belgium after 2 kilometers!

Well, I just hope that the plan in Germany didn't change without telling us why...

Trewyn · Feb 27, 2009

Yeah, I know

I've been to Aachen before, it's nice there

And really nearby the Belgian border.

Xueting GUAN / Meng WANG CHN
20 61.53

Coach: Ge Gao

Love in Campo by Dalin Liu

Startling costumes. Each of them has a yellow rag tied to their hair. He has a long green tunic with pink sash, blue gray pants, and black tall boots. She has a pink dress with a green fish bone on the front and pink tall boots.

Some of the footwork is done quite musically, especially in the slow part. Twizzles with both arms over their heads. A simple lift with a kick up and down into a crouch, nice.

Spread eagle life 3 changes of position into a backbend lift

Quite nice

62.79 SB total in first

oleada · Feb 27, 2009

I liked the Chinese! They had really nice unison.

Snowgirl · Feb 27, 2009

Eurosport will start at 19-15.

Anastasia GALYETA / Alexei SHUMSKI UKR
19 62.29

Coach: Alexander Tumanovski

Elizabeth the Golden Age (soundtrack) by Craig Armstrong, A. R. Rahman

Why he has a red badge sash around his chest (like Boy Scouts) I don't know. He has a black strap diagonally across it. Dark pants, white shirt. She has white dress with a swirly stripe.

Music is dreadful to conceal their difficulty relating to music

Very ugly lift where she gets accidentally stuck for a bit behind his neck before coming around.

No leg line matches

Twizzles out of synch

Nice straight line lift

Rotational to finish.

Can't say I liked it.

50.75 total 113.04 into 8th.

Ice resurfacing

My plan just changed to 19:00. :eek:

But it's already 19:03 and Eurogoals is still running. Ah well, I love football.

YES!!!! It starts!

Trewyn · Feb 27, 2009

It just started here too

Now crossing fingers they're going to show ladies highlights during resurfacing or something.

Alisa AGAFONOVA / Dmitri DUN UKR
12 73.47

Coach: Svetlana Chernikova, Marina Zueva, A. Gorshkov Choreo by Shpilband

Avrora (Ukrainian movie soundtrack) by Valeri Tishler

Music not great.

He has a black onesie with one side with big reticulations and a diagonal red stripe from shoulder down the leg. She has the same, but white with white tights and a little piece of rag skirt with painted shading

not much to say about the skating, really
