Super cute and age-appropriate program. Quite detailed choreography for a very baby Junior team, kind of reminds me of the programs of the French baby pairs team, I have the feeling they'll develop well. Her dress is also very cute. Don't let it fool you, though, she's tough as nails, you have to be as a pairs girl.

 

[NanaPat]

I am concerned that she is going to physically outgrow him, though...

No such worry for Cheung/Lee

 

[4everchan]

I am really impressed with how fast Vlad is picking up pairs.... and how fast they seem to be building a good partnership.

I hope they keep working together for a while and reach their potential.

 

[FlossieH]

You can tell that the short was the more developed of their two programmes, which is completely understandable for a new pair. I look forwards to seeing how that FP develops during the season.

 

[FlossieH]

She looks like she's about to cry.

 

[4everchan]

no beau... don't cry... this is just the beginning... don't beat yourself over that score.

Missed the choreo sequence somewhere, was distracted by those pesky little things you call "family members"

They are a new pair and it does show in this program, but they are coming along quite nicely, they even have a triple throw already. Don't cry, Beau, it's your first competition out and Vladimir is completely new to pairs, you will get your chance soon enough.

 

[4everchan]

i m sad now

 

[RatedPG]

Beau is crying cause she thinks she may have cost them a JGP spot.

I’m still trying to figure out why they went for a 3Lo as the opening jump element when she could only land 3T and 3S last season. By land, I mean barely and seldomly.

The 3Lo was corrected on the protocol to 3T.

 

[NanaPat]

It's good that her partner and coach tried (and partly succeeded) to cheer her up.

I am not sure they are ready for an early JGP spot anyway.... maybe a later one, and they have a few more events to achieve a more stable LP by then

 

[4everchan]

i have to say, as much as i love marly, i am not sure about their programs this year... a bit boring to me...

 

[FlossieH]

I don't know what's going on with Kent and Laurent, but they really aren't ready. That wouldn't get them into the free at Worlds and they were on the podium.

 

[RatedPG]

OMG!! Martina just doesn’t get off the ground with her jumps. Poor Charly

 

[NanaPat]

I wouldn't judge the programs until we see them skated well. Is Martina sick or injured?

Yes. Better programs last season.

I was wondering the same

This is a new look for them (both the softer program and the dress, of course), and I think I like it. I hope Martina isn't injured, she seems to be struggling a lot with landing things here. I would give them the last two JGPs in the hope that the extra time will help them.

 

[RatedPG]

The 3Lo was corrected on the protocol to 3T.

Ok. This makes more sense. Beau has to work on her jumps then
