[auser]

And now we have the third partnership from Sara, Kirill and Ksenia's camp. My kids!!! With their "Exogenesis Symphony"-but-with-a-strange-story-attached programme.

ALL THE BEST SOFÍA AND ASAF!!!

Your kids were lovely. I think they had the best one foot turns levels of the teams we have seen so far. I liked their dance spin.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I really love when they do beautiful programmes.

Ach, Asaf nearly fell going into one of the sets of Twizzles.

You could see he had a bemused smile when doing the next set.

Such a pity. Because everything else looked flawless to me.

Sofía gives him a comforting hug in their finishing position.

During the bows, Asaf let Sofía have the limelight while he stood there looking rather sheepish over his mistake.

Kirill deep in discussion with Sofía during the replays. Meanwhile Asaf was watching the replays on the screen overhead.

They go into the lead of both the Free and overall.

I don't think Asaf can quite believe it.

WELL DONE SOFÍA AND ASAF!!!

Philomène and Raúl have come on so much since I first saw them last season.

I have to be honest, this is not the programme I was expecting from their costumes. I was expecting a motorsports themed programme. Lets face it, in those costumes, Raúl looks like a Ferrari driver and Philomène looks like a grid girl.

Nevertheless, I loved it!!!

Kirill is able to stay with them.

OK. What is Raúl up to with the mask?! Philomène is in stitches laughing!

They go into the lead of both the FS and overall.

WELL DONE PHILOMÈNE AND RAÚL!!!

Their costumes are based on a TV series, the soundtrack of which was used for the program.

Enjoyable free dance!

Aha! That explains it all right.

I hadn't come across that series before, so I wouldn't have worked that out.

Thank you so much for enlightening us.

Lovely dance from Alicia FABBRI / Paul AYER. Liked their stationary lift and admire that they put their sy twizzles later in their program when their legs might be more tired.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I just looked at the livescoring page, and noticed something I hadn't realised as we were going along.

There haven't been any changes to the overnight positions at all so far.

And we are running out of opportunities, because the Top 2 are probably locked into those positions.

Enjoyed Milla Ruud REITAN / Nikolaj MAJOROV's dance. Sweet moment between them at the end.

I like this mature look for the Browns.

 

[Karoltyna]

I'm just lurking here, looks like Oona needs some seconds after she slits poor Gage to get back to her normal self. I liked this program for them, tho some levels...

 

[auser]

Some level issues for Diana with twizzles and stsq today.

 

[Karoltyna]

Oh well, I praised Diana at last Worlds because her progress was substantial. Whatever happened off season, this program again looks like dragging Diana through the ice and hoping her leveles won't drop too much, so let's just wait to see how it develops later. On the other hand she looks very nice in an actual dress and with different hairstyling.

If somebody needs the results again:

 

[Karoltyna]

Looking at the scores, Neset/Markelov are loosing the race for 3rd US spot...

 

[elektra blue]

(i booed in the wrong thread)

 

[Karoltyna]

Heh, I knew this straight line lift will be costly for Browns and final lift only level 2, I guess it's stamina thing.

 

[Karoltyna]

They gave Diana twizzles on level 4... not funny, but ok

 

[lauravvv]

Looking at the scores, Neset/Markelov are loosing the race for 3rd US spot...

I didn't think they were in that race this season to begin with. Browns are closer if they sort out their level issues, but I still think it's basically between Green/Parsons, Zingas/Kolesnik and, just possibly, Shibutanis, if they really get to competing.

 

[SnowWhite]

They gave Diana twizzles on level 4... not funny, but ok

It was a twizzle in the steps that she stumbled out of, if thay's what you're thinking of. She only had level 1 on that element.

Nope, I'm writting about her synchronized twizzles that were on level 2 live but ended on 4 in the protocols.

Dianna and Gleb always score ridiculously high here then they get sorted on the Grand Prix circuit, nothing serious. They've even outscored Smart and Diaz in these sorts of Challenger cups. Really glad for the Swedes, they bested those whom they should have outskated at the Olympic Qualifier in Beijing. I hope they continue to make good results and earn a spot to the OGs.
