2020 Cup of Russia: Stage I

[gehirn]

Yay, a hair close-up. The camera man knows what fans crave.

 

[LadyB]

I like them...and I’m partial to Velikov Team.

 

[Skatesocs]

This new one clearly broke the monotonous feel of her first music.

That's what they were going for. I don't think it worked.

It's the first iteration though. They did probably change it after feedback from the test skates. Maybe they'll be told to use a better cut after this.

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Oh no, not a dirge-y cover...

 

[Ichatdelune]

This is the weirdest cover of Can't Help Falling In Love I've ever heard

 

[flanker]

Why so "dramatical" (I dare to say psycho) cover of this song?

 

[gehirn]

Some high quality elements here but this horrible Elvis cover is not doing much for them

 

[elektra blue]

nice team, good skate, terrible man costume

 

[Ichatdelune]

Still weirded out by the cover, but very solid skate for a brand-new team

you know, guys, i'm a strange person...i kind of like this psycho-cover

I just don't get the idea behind this program. Music, costumes, skating don't seem to be connected in any way.

because they're probably not

I’d accept it more if she mimed stabbing him at the end or something.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Once again I be a dissenter...I like this version of the song! It's eerie.

That's some good sychronisation on the spin there.

that would have made it very interesting

Beside that abrupt change of music after the spin, I like it this new one. Clearly they can still polish the whole program.

Also maybe go back to her purple/blue dress at the test skate that I thought was simple but looks divine on her.

 

[flanker]

Solid skate by Safina/Bachmat, but the music should be banned by law

Remind me never visit your motel
