P/C should beat I/Z.

Awful audio, coudn't hear any music! Yet I loved them. And omg Guillaume is so amazing, how can you take yours eye off of him?

 

[gravy]

Cizeron is ridiculously good looking.

 

[Matt K]

One of those were almost world champions and c/b is very established. Bates especially.

But Ilinykh's credentials and talents, including Olympic bronze far exceeds C/B though.

God...Musicallity was there, fluid movement, flowing through all tech elements, nice edges, fierce vibe and elegance...And Guillaume is special - that kind of personality and presence on ice is very rare nowadays

Cizeron is ridiculously good looking.

Carrying on an established tradition in French Ice Dance...

Whats with that set of twizzle with a straight leg up? So many teams are doing it.

 

[Meoima]

Not bad for I/Z, I mean this is their debut. At this rate they will be 4th in the SD. I hope they will be stronger in the FD. :yay: I love their fire!!!

 

[NoNameFace]

That was good for Maia and Alex...

I loved the Shibs today

This was their absolute first competition ever of any note together! They are close to medaling. It's all good. If they do medal they would debut in seniors better than I/K did.

Does it offer them greater control and enables them to sync together easier? :think: Sorry, I honestly don't know, just guessing at this point

Not bad? I don't know what you guys were expecting, but this is great. We're not talking about this year here.
If they continue working like this, they're going to be great. Mark my words.

I love seeing Maia and Alex happy Such cuties!

I think that's one of the bullet point requirements for a level 4 set of twizzles. I think it's an option between that and a change of edge in the middle of one set of twiddles? - Or at least, those are two options to get a level 4.

ahhh wishing happy birthday to kanako, so sweet

No idea, actually I'd think it's riskier :think:
