2014 4cc Short Dance

[burntBREAD]

Just noticed that Hirai/De La Ascuncion skated to a foxtrot version of "Creep" by Radiohead. That song does NOT fit a Finnstep at all.

Hey, Turbo-Mom!

What a nice skate for Alexandra and Daniel!

And... they're in podium position! Good for them, and for you!

It has to be really difficult for the athletes, too, especially those who just came from their well-attended Nationals.

True. I was at Canadian Nationals, and it was packed - particularly the final night where I think the organizers said it was sold out.

I'm sure the American skaters find it a bit odd too.

^ I think they would. Even though the arena wasn't filled to capacity there were still tons of people in the crowd. I don't know the numbers for Ice Dance, but apparently the 2014 Ladies Free was the single largest attended event at Nationals since the 2002 Ladies Free.

Hopefully the events tomorrow will be better-attended, but perhaps this is the way it will be for the whole week.

Has the event not been well-advertised in Taipei?

They have a gala scheduled in a few days, too. Hopefully that will get some attendees!

Is there no video of Dani and Greg?

I was there on the final night. It was in fact sold out.
