These are some interesting looking costumes!

An Elvis Program?

 

[Harriet]

I'm curious to see what Hamon and Strekalin do with the Hunger Games soundtrack.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Robert Kunkel your shirt is a serious contender for our CAMP COSTUME HALL OF FAME.

If Elvis is indeed "In The Building," he's there to steal your shirt!

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Those costumes... are a choice.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Ha ha I really liked that!

The costumes are cute, they totally owed them.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Well there was one nice lift in that program that was almost as good as your shirt.




Ok, who's zooming who. NOTHING is as good as that shirt.

:hap57:

 

[cheerknithanson]

are you ?

Yep. I'm up.

ChSq
3STh - maybe twofoot

FS: 41.99+44.70-1.00 = 85.69, 131.67, 1/6

 

[Lamente Ariane]

The stream was a bit of a mess there but what I did see of Miura/Ichihashi looked like they had some potential, maybe?

Some small mistakes, but some nice details in there. They seem pleased enough

Ted agrees so it'll be interesting to see how they go.

The French Team was also very interesting, I liked their style despite the mistakes

Oh no...stream where have you gone?!

Edit: Never mind, I think I accidentally pressed pause, fail.

 

[BillNeal]

Twist was good, that lift looked really laboured though.

 

[ancientpeas]

I'm here.. but soon I'll be gone to walk my dog.

Good morning, afternoon and evening Pairs fans!

Overall solid skate, though muted in performance

[ancientpeas]

I can hear Ted in my head sometimes. He thinks very highly of my dish washing skills.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Damn I missed the French.

The Ukrainians have some really nice qualities but they really need to work on lift exits, which were all very bumbly. He had a great edge going into that death spiral. And they could some expression, ANY expression. The whole thing was stone faced. And thank you for an simple and elegant dress Ms N

 

[flanker]

Ted's words: "Always protect the girl"

 

[ancientpeas]

Artem has what I like to call a "deadpan" expression.

 

[WeakAnkles]

I can hear Ted in my head sometimes. He thinks very highly of my dish washing skills.

It's a good thing I swallowed my coffee just before reading this or I would be wanting to see your Computer Monitor and Keyboard Cleaning Skills.

resurfacing means dog walking here in the peas household.
