2015 US Nationals Senior Free Dance Jan. 24

[Mrs. P]

I can't begrudge them. They delivered. I'm happy the Shibutanis did not roll over and fought for the title. And perhaps the Shibutanis can surprise at Worlds. They have one of the best SDs in the Worlds and with a reformed FD, they can surprise.

111.11. Looks like judges are shouting to us: ,,THEY ARE NUMBER ONE AND THE SCORE PROVE IT, JUST ONE.''

 

[lmarie086]

Too bad I don't buy what the judges and media try to sell me!

Congratulations to them, but if they scored 111, Hubbell/Donohue should have been allowed a 102 or so.

Nah, somebody´s keyboard stuck in 1.

Tell me about it...nothing past this program besides some of Madison's hamming it up and good lifts. :disapp:

I'm happy for Igor more than C/B. I still think C/B's lifts are better than the Shibs and then virtually everything else to me (an untrained eye) is the same.

Admins, can we make "I like it" for comments?

Madison looks like Olivia Munn...just pretty.

I feel like the Shibs have better quality to their skating. Edges etc. But Chock and Bates have Madison hamming it up, which sells the program.

Johnny still wearing the garbage bag.

Really curious to see the changes made by the Shibs.

By the time Canadian and US championship I´m gonna need a support group.

Japanese´s championship drama is pretty same compared to this two.

I hope you like it. I think it's a lot less cold and it shows off Maia a lot more.

You know Igor wants to beat Marina bad here.

I'll take An American in Paris here today over the Bland Danube.
All the lifts were well timed to the music, though the leaps at the end are still overkill. Congratulations Madison/Evan!

Her hamming up is basically doing something with hair which she wasn't kind enough to bind You know - oh my eyes, where's the ice? OK, I'm getting really mischievous

This. :thumbsup: Shibs should do something about it. They need be "bigger" because their skating skills, posture are way above Chocks.

And you know this 111.11 means they are automatically going to give it to them the next 4 years, too.

 

[Alchamei]

Hey, but I'm right, am I? Yes, C/B program have difficult lifts, interesting transitions and they have good SS, but their program as a whole does nothing to me. I've got no American in Paris feeling.

 

[auser]

Wow that was wonderful! For the first time ever, I found myself looking at Maia! She looked so playful! I loved it!

Maia embracing the spotlight and shining
