2016 Trophée de France Pairs LP

ouch lets see

 

[Lota]

Ghhhh, I hope T/M win, I sooooooo want to see them at the GPF!!!

 

[HanDomi]

Program is mess. I don't know how I would call final result to be honest

 

[ancientpeas]

Nope, still hate this music and I feel that they skate through it not with it. I don't think they like it either.

Problems in the SBS's not withstanding they are so nice to watch in the elements and so..disconnected outside of them. I want them to find a good program. I have a suggestion for them but it's probably wrong: The theme music from Outlander. They liked Riverdance so they have some experience with that kind of music.

 

[Giselle]

Do T/M really need to win this to go to the GPF? 11+13= 24 so higher than S/B and D/F or am I missing something?

 

[Lysambre]

thanks to all russian teams today... you really helped S/B. Canada sends flowers

I really wanted S/B to qualify for GPF, they're just awesome to watch \o/. Discovered them at GPF last year, and the whole crowd was taken with them instantly

 

[skylark]

All I could think of during T/M lifts was what tulosai said about smiling being an essential part of the lift, like a correct entrance and exit!

And if Music Was My First Love, I wish they would show it!!!

But I could feel their determination not to mess up this chance they had, and that's admirable.

 

[Crossover]

T/M is gonna win the event, but the performance looks lacks of sparkles...they outing at Nepela is much better.

What an anticlimax competition after the wonderful SP overall. Jamese and Cipres are the highlight of the FS event.

EDIT: T/M didn't win.....Did I miss something except the botched 3-2-2 combo? T/M place in 3rd at the FS? I guess they missed some levels.

 

[solani]

This competition showed why three jump combinations in pairs skating are a huge risk.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Damn I'm sorry I missed this. I really wanted to see James and Cipres. Heaven bless youtube.

 

[glorybox6]

Please please please T/M get some better programs. Your basics are so good and there is so much potential here, but if you want to start winning competitions, that's what is holding you back!

 

[ancientpeas]

Meaghan has made an appearance in this thread.. :scowl:

What happens with T/M and the grand prix final now?

 

[nolangoh]

Goodness this pairs event was such a mess.

But Congratulations to Vanessa and Morgan!!!

 

[Matilda]

landing on 3A screwed her foot quite a bit...

That's what I was afraid of, too

 

[cathlen]

T/M had to make mistakes too, so after that overscoring S/M in PCS department (I mean 8,75 averaged for Performance after THAT? It looks like Aliona could stand on the ice and she'd still get high scores....), they had no chance to win with S/M, ridiculous.

 

[tulosai]

Do T/M really need to win this to go to the GPF? 11+13= 24 so higher than S/B and D/F or am I missing something?

This. Am I missing something too? 2+3 is better than 1+5...

 

[Totentanz]

I got the standing correct for the predictions game here. Not happy with the pair skating we have seen this weekend though.

 

[Lysambre]

Goodness this pairs event was such a mess.

But Congratulations to Vanessa and Morgan!!!

They had my favorite program of this competition, even if it wasn't perfect

 

[gravy]

but Meagan was clean for like 3-4 years with the hardest content before getting there... he just arrived and he is not clean

Both teams have massive weaknesses when it comes to one person. They both get judged according to their better skater.

 

[machin]

Killed on PCS and rightly so. Their program is what VV won worlds with back in 88. Comparing it to SM is harsh because theirs is the oppositze, modern and creative. Mozer's tastes are really outdated and she seems to have lost her technical wisdom too.
