Yay, Gabby's top can't fall off this time!

maybe guillaume's pants will... a guy can dream

Love the Spanish team outfits. Simple design but eye catching. Dont know why all the female ice dancers usually wear dresses that looks like it was sewn together with mutiple left over fabric

That British guy shamed into putting his mask back on by the camera...

Honestly, I think Nathan Chen does better hip-hop than almost all of the ice dancers, lmao.

OMG you gotta check out Jeremy Buttle's Insta story! There's the cutest little Nathan fan on there doing his step sequence, it's awesome!

OMG, here we go! Here we go!

No level 4 MB, pattern, or StSq yet... looks like the tech panel woke up too early today

I mean if the skaters aren’t earning it, that’s good.

Go, Livia and Adrian!!!!

Again, Montreal should be booed and hissed for foisting yet another disco program off as "blues," but H/B's dance actually did have a BLUES feeling. No it wasn't the best technical pattern, but for me it was the ONLY pattern I've seen so far that actually conveyed what I think a Midnight Blues pattern should be: sultry, sexy, a bit languid. The dance equivalent of foreplay.

I do wish the powers that be would stop foisting what they think as "hip" and "street" patterns on the Olympic season, in the hope that it will pull in a younger audience. It doesn't. I'd rather see a great Golden Waltz or even (yes, I'm going to say it) a Yankee Polka than this mishmash of "desperate to be relevant and contemporary" styles on the RD. If that is the wish, why not create a contemporary pattern that truly is contemporary.Remember, hip hop is heading into its FIFTH decade as a musical genre. But given how the FD official world is about 75 years behind the times, that's par for the course for them.

Love you H/B. Glad to see you in first at the moment. You bring it.

It may have had the feeling, but the MB was judged NYNY. I think they were maybe a little too excited and lost some levels they are capable of getting.

[anonymoose_au]

Yeah this re-verb is weird....

 

[elektra blue]

Adrian! don't you dare tripping again!

 

[LadyB]

I totally love S/D this season - love Adrian always!

 

[elektra blue]

i see there's some banana bread left...

 

[4everchan]

But can he do the Midnight Blues...

YYNN

 

[Ichatdelune]

Slight bobble but man this is a good program

Skaters seem to like danger...nearly all of them wear necklaces too!

This is awesome from Olivia and Adrian though!

Ice dancers have the same problem that a lot of ballet dancers have when it comes to hip hop- all their training has been to make their movements look as smooth, fluid, and polished as possible so they lack the 'grit' that hip hop needs.

Nathan doesn't have that problem
