2021 JGP Kosice: Free Dance

[anonymoose_au]

I do have to wonder, have we had any Odettes in FS? I can only remember Odiles

Indeed! Which is interesting... ladies - er women skaters rarely do bad guys... except for Swan Lake...

Oksana Biaul famously did a White Swan exhibition skate. But that's the only one I can think of...unless Alina Z was the white Swan in her Olympic SP, not sure though.

Wasn't Oksana Baiul skating to The Swan by Saint-Saens and not Tchaikovsky????

Tutu!!!

Wow, that was just so beautiful

 

[Lamente Ariane]

It’d be nice to hear the cygnets for once, or maybe even like, La Sylphide.

Hey, maybe that's the reason why I hardly ever watch Women's skating

That's true...they are usually done by the same ballerina Although within the story itself they're supposed to be different girls right?

Hey I put Natalie and Bruce first in my predictions because I thought maybe as Canadians they'd be good and I'd vaguely heard of them.

Ava Marie is going to skate later, no need to call her now

A La fille mal gardee program!!!!

Probably I always mix up my swans!

 

[LadyB]

Davaitse!!!!

 

[LadyB]

I normally can't stand this hymn, but icw with ice dance and their performance, this is weirdly working for me!

 

[Dr. Jenn]

I didn't enjoy the music, but they performed well and had interesting choreography. The one lift was really neat!

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Was worried this would be sleepy when I heard the music choice, pleasantly surprised! Some spectacular lifts.

OTOH I can’t believe I second guessed myself in the prediction game and put Natalie and Bruce in third

 

[norwegianfairytale]

That dress looks very much like Kamila Valievas dress, the same dress maker perhaps?

Lovely performance, interesting lifts

 

[anonymoose_au]

They're very emotional! I wonder if they'll make it.

I feel like Ted enjoys saying "Vasilisa" not that I blame him it's a fun name!

in the story the black one is kind of a clone of the white one, the stupid prince can't tell them apart

 

[readernick]

They are incredible. She is the definition of ethereal. The choreo is interesting. The music is an odd choice.

 

[Ichatdelune]

It's so weird, K/A are good skaters, their performances are engaging, but I don't love them. The Miyahara Satoko of junior ice dancers to me.

DId they just get their CCSS invalidated

 

[kmw227]

Wow, that was beautiful. Love this team and this program works so well for them! And that rotational lift was so cool. Beautiful job Vasilisa & Valeriy! (hope their character step gets scored though, since it got 0 points in real time)
