Group 1
WARNING - my dances notes leave something to be desired (at least in my opinon )
Mikhailova/Sergeev - Jesus Christ Superstart - she’s insades of dusty rose going almost to a rose-brown he’s in black with matching dangly bits/ they skated the opening (her left knee is taped and they had a bit of a nasty fall in warmup where she seemed to bang her right knee) I’m liking the cuts of music they’re using - the song where Jesus throws them out of the temple is used in the middle very effectlively for ftwrk, they use the familiar ‘Jesus Christ Superstar part at the end
Platonova/Maximishin - something Spanish him in black & her in a red skirt with grey underskirt and black top / very nice fast spin with good positions / and now they’re taking a break / back into it very fast & close with great edges / bit out of sync on a twizzle seq / some now posing at centre ice and the music has slowed for a pair of twizzle seq that were a little far apart and out of sync / another break / back into again for some very dramatic posing at centre ice with a little movement of the feet and into a step seq (that I quite liked) / they do this type of music quite well - great attitude for it /
Yu/Wang - she’s in red with silver lame around top of skirt and under the bust he’s in a matching shirt with mainly silver lame / little slip by her on pair of twizzles / nice curve lift but seemed awfully long to me but I don’t know what the time limit is / I was right - it’s celtic music - they’re into Lord of the Dance now - some pretty good ftwrk to it movement was in time but movement across the ice was a little slow / I think they’re now playing the waltz that Shae & Vic used for their OD a few years ago / back to step dancing for at ftwrk seq / it isn’t Riverdance but I think they’re doing a credible job with it and I’m sure the crowd will love it /
Hajkova/ Vincour - black faux leather with silver and the music starts with Blue suede shoes / the opening has the right moves / break while they wait for the next section / I want you I need you - with a ok curve lift / they seem a bit ragged to me and the ftwrk seems a bit on the simple side / Lookin for trouble? /then Don’t mess around with me with a nice fast rotational lift / Another program that I think the crowd will get into because of the music, but in this case I’m not sure (at least from what I saw) if the skating will be up to the level of the other teams.
