2016 Cup of China Free Dance

[ancientpeas]

Fifth place for Natalia & Maks :hap57: I knew they were lucky to be chosen for CoC!

And you said they are going to NHK too?

But vilka looks like a Bambi, too.

Vika is not the definition of elegance on ice either, but she hunches way less and is way better than Stepanova IMO. And Nikita (drunken twizzle and all) is on a different planet when compared to Bukin.

 

[ancientpeas]

Okay! One event down, three to go! We can do it!

It's a marathon not a sprint. Remember to refuel.

 

[gravy]

That'll be good for them cause they'll be 2nd to last to skate in the GPF,

Unless the GPF is also a draw now... ?

I think the GPF remains the only competition that is seeded.

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong?

Yay! Team Stepukin will most likely be the Russian #2.

Makes me sad for what could have been for Ilinykh & Katsalapov. :disapp:

I'm kinda dissapointed that there's no cherry cock in my fridge. Just Dr. Pepper. It'll have to do....

Yeah, Vika has better Thumper

Si, but I don't expect them to get such a good result there. Tougher field. But they need to get consistency in competition, so I just hope they would score 150 (or better) there too

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! What a capper!!!!!!!!

I was thinking "gangly" myself. But I could just tell they'd win the Russian tango-off. S/K had too many obvious stumbles. Stepanova is better at covering her stumbles up. LOL!

Both their tangos pale in comparison to Piper and Paul's tango. The Russian teams need some serious lessons on how to portray a tango. If they aren't selling, I ain't buying.

Oh My!

Don't keep it in the fridge!!! You know what happens when they get cold.

I guess Ms.Gordon Poltorak who is the chair of ice dancing technical committee and who was also the technical controller at this competition is making lucky arrangements for Polish ice dance team.

 

[auser]

Yes, the GPF also is by draw.

Congratulations to the Shibs for the win here :yay:.

I will have to be ready to watch on time then. I barely made it to the couch yesterday as the Shibs were starting their SD .

 

[ancientpeas]

Why is this person saying "we are sansur" over and over again... what does it mean? Is it the alien overlord calling again?

 

[SarahSynchro]

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM! What a capper!!!!!!!!

Wow I got two kabooms in one thread! I am flattered and excited! arty:

Wow!!! This forum comes alive after dark.

 

[WeakAnkles]

That seems to be a problem for a lot of teams. Do you think it's getting more common?

Open programs? Well the name of the game in ID has always been, in the immortal words of Uncle Dick Button, "Speed, speed and more speed." And the easiest way to do that is in an open hold. And every team is looking to stand out, and the easiest way to do so in ID is to be fast faster fastest.

But Morozov is infamous for open programs. I loved I/K's Swan Lake but it was VERY open.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Oh My!

Lol, it was actually ruffledgrouse's typo last night in the SD thread. I'm just keeping the joke rolling.

 

[Mirunna]

Both Russian couple with higher BV than W/P and S/S :scratch3:.
S/S tied on BV with W/P but won on GOE (understandably) and PCS
