Black stockings and skates on her
red bodice ripped latin top with black skirt for her
He's in black with a vee neck shirt
bongo drums
jump into twizzles, cautious but done
neat little jump by her in close hold
lift rotational might be too long
oh ah oh ah
more slow bongos
into pair spin pretty good speed
reverse spin nice leg position by him
Girl from ipanema sounding stuff
they are quite slow but attempting to be sexy
stumble in f/w
little foot pawing movements
very cool hydroblade lift into knee slide
faster music he falls splat
combo lift (hurriedly)
fw
it keeps looking like they are cautious and thinking thru every move
little transition lift to end
It's working!
Tibbets/Brubaker: Eh. Lovely curve lift. He falls while skating, but they had enough time to set up the combo lift afterwards. Infelicities in their steps (too far apart a couple of times) and first rotational lift (litle off balance at one point, but not danger of dropping). He's very tall but they haven't really worked around that. But that was a lovely curve lift. American ice-dance is so deep.
yay Radio Canada is back
58.98 - yeah, they had two deductions. Presumably that lift was too long along with the fall.
Trojek and Arnold bored me, sorry, but they were cleaner. No more Amelie please.

biellman around his neck short lift
better speed than T&B
crossing footwork for the twizzles

f/w in close holds
nice lilt to their work
separation that went a bit long, intentional?

in Amelie waltz
Across the knee lift, very average
more f/w with kicks
break in music
little waltz jump in the f/w
music faster
rotational lift in a weak position

Spanish flamenco dress, mostly black on her
burgundy puffy sleeve shirt black pants on him
guitar music with stomping noises
red fake rose in blond hair hers
twizzles out of sync they clap over heads

she missed a lift that was supposed to go on his foot
very slow f/w in close holds
arm over head twizzle in it to be flamenco
rotational lift without much lift
flamenco posing
pair lunges
into pair spin
rotating slow to slow music
maraccas
finally some fast music
into f/w in close hold with kicks
combo lift on his knee with her knee over his shoulder, then rotational
too fast beats for them, and they have a kind of a slip
to end
should be worse than the Canadians, IMO.
You know I really like the mood that Tibbetts and Brubaker creates with their programs- even with the hideous mistakes at this competition. They pick music that's not run of the mill and are a little different. Rachel reminds me a lot of a pre-blond Oksana Grischuk.
It almost seemed like they hadn't had enough time to practice their programs yet. If this is their first time on the senior international circuit- they must not have had to be "ready" with their programs this early in the season yet. It seemed like a few times they just forgot what to do next. I hope they keep going. I've seen them skate better than this competition would indicate.
That is my biggest pet peeve at an event like that. YOUR FLASH WILL NOT MAKE IT TO TEH ICE and chances are it will DARKEN THE SUBJECT before it will lighten it. If you don't know how to work your camera where it won't flash, don't bring it - or better yet, learn how to use it.
