2012 Cup of Russia Free Dance

[kosjenka]

Alex looks like he is in a state os shock.

 

[A.H.Black]

Looks like it's a foot or a leg. I am going like this program a lot.

 

[missysays]

That's a gorgeous FD but he looks sick! I hope he's ok.

I thought he looked a little low energy yesterday in the SD too.

 

[*~RussianBleux~*]

They let them start over because they missed a lift? huh?

 

[Rachmaninoff]

I wonder what that was all about. Maia looked like she was comforting Alex. Wish I spoke Russian.

 

[Mrs. P]

Not sure what happened with Alex...but I think this is a beautiful FD..

Alex has dealt with injuries last season....so perhaps it acted up again?

 

[Macassar88]

Looked like he was clutching his side

 

[bigsisjiejie]

He looks sick in the K&C, like having trouble breathing. Ok now he's settling down but something's not right.

 

[let`s talk]

Maia is the best sister ever!

 

[missysays]

Maia is so sweet putting his guards on for him.

 

[A.H.Black]

They didn't start over. They started from the point of the lift.

 

[kosjenka]

Marks for S&S 82.65 - they are in the lead.

 

[Rachmaninoff]

And when he did do the lift, it looked like it was a real effort for him.

I think I'm going to like this program for them though. And on a superficial note, I love Maia's whole look here.

 

[Mrs. P]

I hope Alex feels better. He looked absolutely spent.

 

[bigsisjiejie]

I like this young Russian couple, S/Z. Lots of promise. I also like the understated costumes! Oops, fall by her then him at the very end, shouldn't count against them much.

 

[kosjenka]

Whats up with Russians and weird programs this season?

 

[Macassar88]

That was not a Tango from Victoria and Ruslan - it was a bunch of random movements with tango music in the background. I hope they leave Kustarova soon.

I recall him almost throwing up on the ice at a competition last year because he was having trouble breathing, forget which one it was.

S/Z were great, shame about the little stumble before the ending pose.

I think Alex was sick during 4CC

4CC -- due to the high elevation. But I'm not sure if it's the same situation for Alex here.
