Elena Ilinykh & Nikita Katsalapov RUS
SP Fourth Place 58.17
FD Ave Maria by Vladimir Vavilov, performed by Thomas Spencer-Wortley
No surprise, same costume as last week at NHK
She covers her face, he buries his head in his chest
He skates to her
They skate off
rotational lift with him lifting his leg for about a turn..it still looks unintentional
step sequence in holds 90 miles apart
Skating apat into twizzles back and forth
Cute, & A cute way to keep you from detecting they aren't in synch
Rotational lift similar to first one with her head in his chest & foot in a hair cutter
One of those travel around the the neck lifts
Some 2 feet spinning by him at the start of the spin. Rest of it OK, but not sure what the rule is here.
Steps. was that a trip or intentional
This is a little better than last week
Kind of a messup on the exit from the final lift, or is that intentional
They hug
Russian flags in the audience
That is a very open program. I don't want to hear any complaints about S&Z open programs from I&K fans.
82.15 (not a seaon's best, needless to say)
141.32 into 1st
