2014 Skate Canada Ladies SP 10/31

[WeakAnkles]

Wow--I think that's the first Leonova program I've really enjoyed. Good for her.

 

[Sandpiper]

I still find the facial expression a little over-the-top, but I love how Leonova stayed in character for the whole program.

(So many good performances... I'm so nervous for Ashley now).

 

[Pippuripihvi]

Alena's program is perfect for Halloween night!

 

[Doggygirl]

Love leonova!!

 

[Isabel_O'Reilly]

Wow, that program really made me smile. :yes: I don't think I've ever seen a lady perform a program where absolutely every single second was 100% in character (in a non-serious program, if that makes sense?). Perfect for Halloween.

Really nice job by Alena. I know some people find her over the top, but I appreciate that she pays attention to the program and never loses her character.

 

[lady_bee]

Alena is back

Really nice job by Alena. I know some people find her over the top, but I appreciate that she pays attention to the program and never loses her character.

It probably looks much better in the arena rather than on TV, too. She's selling the program to the people in the seats, not for a TV camera close-up.

Ugh... really not a fan of Courtney's dress...

 

[wordsworthgirl]

I loved Leonova's performance for its total commitment to the character, charm, and pleasant, easy quality, and I love her energy and demeanor. She seems like a real sweetheart. Liked her rapport with her coach. and very pretty- my sons agree!

 

[Doggygirl]

Ugh... really not a fan of Courtney's dress...

Me neither..... the high necklaces her look stiff i think...

 

[BounceAround]

Courtney HICKS

Triple Flip-Triple Toe
Layback (Good turnout of the foot)
Double Lutz
Flying Camel
Step Sequence
Double Axel
Combination Spin

I like her costume. The pop on the lutz was quite dramatic.

 

[satine]

Ugh... really not a fan of Courtney's dress...

Me neither :disagree: I only like the small triangle of embellished fabric down her neckline.

 

[Sandpiper]

Hicks: 3F-3T, popped 3Lz to double with turn-out, 2A. Pop will be costly, but I like how she attacked the program.

 

[Mrs. P]

I think Courtney will pull up in the FS. her SP tends to be her weakness for whatever reason.

 

[Scovies]

Shame about the lutz, but I like this program for her. Love the music, and the combination spin at the end is really cool.

 

[Ophelia]

Can anyone share some links?

 

[Blades of Passion]

Wow.
