Ravie and Cedar just finished skating. I liked their program, but felt that in the start of the Exogenesis Symphony part III section the movements were too frenetic in comparison to the music. Deeper edges and extension would help there, I think.

Man George lifting Sabrina looks like he's lugging a sack of potatoes. The lifts look so laboured. Twizzles started a bit far apart.

I wonder if George is proud of his little brother for winning the novice title?

Can be tough with two siblings competing in the same discipline even if they're a couple of years apart in age.....

Bruce is doing so very well in dance, but I keep wondering if pairs will be in his future once he has his growth....

Not a chance.

George will likely to move up to senior soon.

Che falls out of a lift. The crowd gasps. Falls in ice dance are rare and disappointing.

OUCH

Ayer drops Che and falls on the ice from a lift. This is going terribly for this otherwise great team.

Jolie is holding her right thigh, and was testing the leg. She looks to be hurting. Poor girl. Good of the crowd to give them some good applause. They get 3 points in deductions.

Cipriano/Richardson's FD is choreographed by Shae Zukiwsky.

Mango · Jan 17, 2017

Gina looks like a new skater with Richardson. Good for her for finding a suitable partner and getting choreography that suits them.

And a fall from Brown

too close to the boards

Mango · Jan 17, 2017

Gingrich/Brown's program was going so well until he lost his footing, went into the boards and fell.

Recovered for a gorgeous rotational lift.

This is the 2nd time I've seen them fall in this FD. So saddening, because it's a very nice program.

Mango · Jan 17, 2017

Pasquale Camerlengo choreographed that FD by G/B.

F/P were great ( in terms of what little bit i watched)
She looks so tall for him though.

Mango · Jan 17, 2017

I don't think this partnership will last but Alicia is beautiful regardless. So much maturity.

Uhm, agree....and she seems to have continued to grow throughout the season. Not sure she's reached her full height yet. But their rapport is so great for this level, especially at her age, so it would be unfortunate for them to need to find new partners....

Mango · Jan 17, 2017

Irina & Tommy's last lift on the crescendo of the music :thumbsup:

TIL Irina's from Moscow

You can see Carol Lane's technical influence in this program

In any case, I hope Skate Canada to act quick. She has a star potential in her. I do agree that it would be unfortunate to split up. Claudio has this quiet strength in him that complements her and allows Alicia to shine.

Yikes at that spin mistake!

sunnystars · Jan 17, 2017

They were smooth on the ice but they need the speed and intensity to match the feel of the program

Mango · Jan 17, 2017

The age and size difference are going to test Alicia & Claudio.

Han/Lochhead's pair spin came to a halt. Gingrich/Brown also had spin troubles. Tonight is a tough night for many of these skaters.
