Debbi is currently interviewing Igor Spilband, talking about Kavita and Joti

Thank you! :)

Watching some of the dance videos. Just finished Madison & Evan's. I like the program a lot-total departure from anything they've done before, and really fun to watch-but I thought the costumes were a bit overdone. (Does any culture actually wear that much gold decoration? I get that they were trying to be gypsies, but that was a little too much.)

I couldn't hear the commentator over their music, but she seemed good. She talked just enough to tell what the technical elements were but no more, and I liked it.

Allessandrini and Soquet looked really good, I thought, for a team with absolutely no prior international experience.

Thanks a lot, CaroLiza_fan. And here I was naively thinking that I will be able to go back into the stream and start watching from the beginning. No such luck. There are no stored videos of all ice dancers either. And I so wanted to see Paul/Islam :cry:. I just hope they will add their performance later.

Awww. You're welcome lauravvv.

Yeah, unfortunately Daily Motion doesn't have the same functionality as YouTube, but the quality is great and it is much better than the other alternatives.

And it was because I knew you couldn't re-wind that is why I switched over here for the start of the SD. ;)

But, the videos do normally appear later on, so don't worry too much.

I really like Agafonova/Ucar. They are always very pleasant to watch for me :) I have enjoyed some of their programs more in the past, but it's great to see them out there!

I have pointed out earlier in this thread that I like Debbi Wilkes' accent, and that we can barely more than hear her most of the time.

But, as the competition goes on, I am starting to find that she is talking too much for my liking.

Ted Barton has been spoiling us by not talking at all during the routines!

Paul & Islam SD

twizzles unsteady by Mitchell
but overall a very nice, traditional dance
The lift would look a lot better if her skirt were not so puffy and in the way.

Better than their outing in Québec.

During that lift I was actually thinking, "how can he see with all that tulle in his face?" Maybe they need to use one of those tie-on flat ballet tutus to make it less cumbersome?


I looked them up, just to see what's out there, and have come to the conclusion that a pancake tutu would be a far better costume for that than the giant in-his-face one.

Lorenz and Polizoakis are a team after my own heart... the Sound of Music is always the right answer!

I definitely will be keeping an eye on these two- they are fantastic for a new team :love:

I'm confused. Joti has started Ice Dancing, and suddenly he doesn't look as Greek as he used to! :laugh:

Even if you ignore the fact that this is their first competition together, and his first competition in Ice Dance, that was VERY impressive!!!

This could be a very promising couple for the future!

The costume is appropriate because of the gypsy flavor of their music.

Shouldn't this be starting? :unsure: I thought it started at 10:30 and, adjusted for the difference, that's right now, unless my computer clock is way off...:confused:

NVM. It is.
