Gabriella Papadakis & Guillaume Cizeron

I have NO IDEA what they're saying, but I think this might be my favourite interview they've done. Love how chill they are here.

I couldn't agree more. One thing I noticed and which I find extremely funny is how Guillaume always tries to take the microphone when he is about to answer and but the reporter doesn't want to give it to him. :biggrin:
 
Translation (just the important and funny part - EDIT : it's pretty much everything actually :biggrin:) :

NP :How do you feel on Olympic ice and for the games ?

GC : Good, feeling of warth in the rink and good feeling on the ice. Ice is quite slippery though (Gaby + Nathalie = :laugh2:)

NP : Any stress compared to Worlds or Euros ?

GC : Not at all (he sounds ironic though)
GP : different energy, I expected it bigger and more stressful, in the end the energy is family-like, chill, it makes us want to performe.
GC : Really ? (they all laugh)
NP : It's the skating family.
GC : I wouldn't go that far, but the environment is really about the game, everyone is here to play. True there are big cosequences at the end but everyone is here to have fun and deliver.

NP : Apparently there big surprises (in programs) and that's why you stayed in Montreal. Any details ?

GC : Triple Loop, triple twist.
GP : A Quad. (They all laugh)
GC : We stayed one more week for polishing, training, detailing, it helped us mentally and physically, we feel ready. It's nice to arrive and be "fresh", good timing or us.
GP : A lot arrived at the beginning (they keep laughing for nothing #insidejokes), they're already fed up, or feel the tiredness of being here for so long.

NP : you kept beating you WR this season. Goal : catch that gold. Is there also a goal of beating your own record, is it more like a duel, do you see yourselves as favourite...?
GP : A bit of everything is true, we're focusing on beating our own records in terms of performances, not points. To win, we'll probably have to beat a record, but now it's to focus on having the best performances possible.
GC : We're not trying to qualify ourselves as favourites or whatever, we have a chance of winning if we're clean and even more. Goal : an almost perfect Tech score and emotionnaly deliver. Having a lot of fun on the SD and give everything we have on the FD, we don't want to have regrets (in the end).
 
now with the help of google translate, PONS and my spanish speaking friend, I´ll try to translate this :2thumbs:
 
Gabriella and Guillaume comment on their programs from their first French championships in 2006:laugh:

That's adorable. Those bright white lycra pants! The eye-smarting orange outfits for the Cantina Band program! Baby Gabi's incredibly visible hairclips! And their commentary is hilarious.

BTW, somebody posted on FSU that Tanith Belbin White described their practices as 'phenomenal' today. Since we haven't seen any of them, that may serve as a stand-in. ;)

Indeed, that is so good to know that their practices are 'phenomenal'! I can't find any videos of their practices.
 
Today’s practice was really fantastic! They did almost full run through of SD except twizzles (they performed them separately). It was just perfection... And all the judges attended this practice session....
