2025 Robin Cousins Cup | Aug 21-22

Good luck, Rebecca and Kyle!

They certainly put a spell on us! That was really good!

What a beautiful dress that is that Rebecca is wearing! Just a pity that it blended in with the ice / boards at times.

I think it is safe to sat that they will go ahead of my kids.

Yep, they take over 2nd position.

They're not wasting any time. Junior cacti are on the ice already!

And I just realised that I used the times for the Junior Ladies rather than the Senior Ladies when I made out the reminder posts for my Fan Fests this morning! :palmf: :bang:

Not familiar with the first song playing during the Warm-Up, but it was definitely Robbie WIlliams singing it.

The second song was more familiar. "Don’t Stop Until You Get Enough" by Michael Jackson.

They really are picking good songs for the skaters to warm up to! :bow: :clap: :points:

Hope they keep it up.

Some nice expressive details there from Tim - what a shame about the fall and the barrier crash. Good choice of music.
 
This boy's costume matches the seating! :laugh:

It's a good costume though, I like it.
 
Hey, the Meeks may be from the same family, but they don't spin in the same direction.

I'm torn. When you look at it from the left hand side, Juliet's dress is beautiful. But then you see it from the other side. The yellow section that goes over her right shoulder really spoils the look.

Her spins and jumps are in the opposite direction because she is a lefty, a mirror pair. Like Christy Yamaguchi and Rudy Galindo
 
Talk about a contrast!

After really enjoying Lloyd, now we get "Bad Cover" from Denis! 🙉 :bang:

And for a while it even turned into an awful cover of "Sweet Dreams"!

Now I'm glad I'm not in the arena!

Interesting. I really enjoyed all three British boys, and didn't enjoy the Belgian boy.

Just shows how important music choice is. And why you need to hear the music. If there had been no sound like when I tried to watch on Monday, I wouldn't have been any wiser as to the abomination that Denis was skating to.

Nice to see Phil Harris with Solomon (if I remember correctly, Phil was with either the first or second girl that skated on Monday).

He goes into 3rd position.

20 minute break now, and then the girls. You know, I might just take the opportunity to watch some of the girls I've missed from Riga.

TIme to complete the Junior SP's with the girls. And this is the first part of a Ladies SP double-bill, because the Seniors follow them.

They're playing S Club 7!!!!!!!!!!!!! :cheer: :clap: :rock: :party2: :points: :hb:

Hey, they cut it off! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Sod it. Here it is:

S Club 7 - "S Club Party"

I have to turn in, best of luck to the girls!
 
Ach! We're starting with "Tango De Roxanne" :mad:

Just once, somebody skate to Sting's original!

That said, Mia CRAIG (GBR) skated well to it. And that black dress is gorgeous! Goes well with her black hair.

And now that we are seeing it close up while she is waiting for her scores, it is even more impressive looking!

Not sure I've seen her before, but I will be keeping an eye out for her in future.

I know we use the term a lot to describe music remixes (a lot of which aren't great!), but that programme was truly epic from Paula KASNAR (HRV)!

I wasn't sure about it at the start, but it grew on me as it went on.

She goes into the lead.

How long do you give until we hear that Darja TRUBITSON (FIN) is looking to switch to Canada?

Well, she is skating to the unmistakable voice of Céline Dion, so... :p

Never heard anybody skate to this particular song before, though. "Then You Look At Me (Voice)" from "Bicentennial Man" (what a great film that was!)

Not bad.

My goodness, her coach looks younger than she is! :drama:

She goes into the lead.

Wow! I loved everything about that programme from Layla REAY (GBR)

Hardly surprising. I do tend to love Indian programmes.

Her blue dress is gorgeous (dresses for Indian programmes do tend to be!) Not sure about the red sash over it, though. I think it would look better without it.

She looks very disappointed waiting for her scores.

She goes into fourth and last position.

TAKE THAT!!!!!!!!!! :cheer: :clap: :rock: :party2: :points: :hb:

For a change, it's a Mark Owen song. "Shine".

And I hope the girls in this group do just that! ;)

So, we've had Robbie Williams. And now Mark Owen. We have to hear Gary Barlow before the day is out!

I am such a kid of the 90's, aren't I? :laugh:
