J/C's mixture of intensity and speed is enthralling. That's not easy music to pull off but they really nailed it!

Music: Phantom of the Opera by Andrew Lloyd Webber
3Tw - good height, caught early
3LoTh - good flow
3T - clean, but unison off
2A+2T+2T - again clean, but unison very off
FCCoSp - unison bit off at start
Li
3LzTh - solid
ChSq
Li
BoDs - could be lower
Li - carry lift
PCoSp
Techically strong and powerful skate. Sadly they don't have elegance in lifts and jumps and sublety in presentation, but they are rock solid.
Score: 63.54+56.95 = 120.49 (SB),184.01 (SB)

I missed the first minute of D/C's program...and I'm totally ok with that. That last lift with the climax was dire in terms of the position matching the emotion of the music....

oh uggg D/C are so distasteful. Raw but not hot or cool. Ugly and unattractive, utterly non-enjoyable. :no:
Being too sweet ???? lmao

Yeah, that. I'm never gonna like these two, I'm afraid.
Also. Choreography was quite sparse and postures and lines still need work. Meh.

3LoTh - hand down
ChSq

They have some nice lifts, but the sbs jumps were as usual a mess. And both throws not clean either. It's gonna be close
Score: 55.43+59.97-1.00 = 114.40, 180.07, 2nd out of 6

Probably the only person here who likes D/CLet me say that I didn't like B/L AT ALL!! :disapp:
Today D/C were the lesser of two evils in my book. Picking your poison is no fun at all.

You're not the only one. I like them too!

Agree on the second! The only thing that I liked was the ending pose (not being sarcastic, either, that was actually cool).
Bazarova/Larionov - Fantastic lifts and twist lift. Decent basic skating. The program lacked character and expression, however, and their postures and lines (his especially) still leave a lot to be desired.
Whilst some of their pair elements are very strong, they seem stuck in a rut as far as improving the PCS aspects of their skating is concerned.
