Weaver/Poje have my absolute favorite RD of the season. Just magnetic.
This is so hard for me, because Gilles/Poirier and now Weaver/Poje have my two favourite tangos of the season. I was not expecting Weaver/Poje to come out and crush it like they did, but their program is equally brilliant. If the judging is fair and they skate like that at worlds, they should be on the podium again (in a tiny whisper, I'd have them first in the RD, over everyone).
Gilles and Poirier looked great here and I'm sad that they lost levels in their Tango Romantica. If they hadn't, it would be a tie. They have my absolute favourite free dance of the season (above Weaver/Poje).
I'm a little sad that with the way the massive political push has been going for the Russians this year, both of these stellar teams could get less than they deserve at worlds (I don't think there's any question they're both going).
If everyone continues to skate in the FD like they did here, this may be my favourite ice dance competition of the season!
And I can't believe I forgot to mention F-B/S! They were amazing. Loved their twizzles and how they're timed to the music.
And on a shallow note, all three of the ladies from the top teams win best dressed awards in my book.
