2024 Finlandia Trophy Rhythm Dance

[Seven Sisters]

This is not my favorite RD—I think I’m BeeGee’d out by now—but I love how they begin with Vadym immediately taking charge of the start of the pattern, in your face, judges!

Tallinn, except for Piper and Paul and Hannah and Ye, is better

Well I am impressed that they got through that dance as well given the sad experience Vadym's brother had in Ukraine (home bombed and young family rescued from rubble). They were cooking with this skate, but a couple of unfortunate levels lost by Emilea will hurt their score. But my respect and admiration to be able to skate as well as they did when life events take precedence.

Paul and Piper had different costumes at the practice. Would have been better.

 

[IceDancingQueen]

Oh loving Piper and Paul’s costumes!

First Pattern Dance looked good.

Oh, shut up Mark! I know the music at this point isn't great, but don't tell us the rules during the programme!

Mark said something was wrong with the Twizzles, but they looked OK to me. (My Dad was talking at the time, so I didn't hear what Mark said).

It all looked good to me.

Vadym still playing to the crowd after they finished.

They looked disappointed when they came off the ice.

Ah, saw the problem with the Twizzles in the replay. Emilea very nearly lost her balance at the end.

They go into 2nd position.

My goodness it is tight between the American partnerships! 0.77 points covering all three of them!

WELL DONE EMILEA AND VADYM!!!

Without the twizzles mishap Zingas / Kolesnik would have been ahead of Brown / Brown - what makes them a bit better? Just curious what people think?

 

[IceDancingQueen]

Juulia looks so great as someone from the 50s

"Piper and Paul, what is your vision for costumes this season?"

"Yes."

that's another of those things i fail to understand, like their meteoric rise, but i know nothing about dance

I loved those floral print costumes, I want them back

 

[4everchan]

Piper and Paul

and it's not the same one i had seen on FB.. at least for Paul... how many RD costumes do they have ?

 

[Seven Sisters]

Levels also not leveling, Vadym your tremendous talent being spent like this brings me grief

This. I’m sure she is a lovely person and works very hard, but she is a beginner.

Imagine what he could do with a partner whose technical skills were on a par with his

ice dance meteoric rise is often a flag thing.

 

[Karoltyna]

Oooh, the skirt, I want it, will wear it proudly, can go with this top

They are taller and appear faster. Oona & Gage are shorter and appear slower.
Same problem Kaitlin & Jean-Luc had.
