Thus speak Zarathustra + James Bond theme. Very weak, the elements are mostly basic level and aren’t that well done either. They shouldn’t have pick up so powerful music, it only highlights their problems.

As good as it gets. Nowhere near the top teams, but kudos for them for skating up to their potential. They should be proud of themselves. Well done.

Cirqus theme. By far the best choreography and presentation skills of all the teams here. Should have gotten much higher PCS. A nice Junior-level team, but it remains to be seen if they could upgrade the jumping content of their programs, their pair elements look solid enough already.

She is a very weak jumper, even the 2T isn’t that good. A shame because they are rather strong at pair skating elements. Lifts have good speed and ice coverage. Excellent twist, I was sure it was double, because I thought “no way they could do a 3 so well”, but they did… They need to improve the presentation, though.
