2015 Glacier Falls Summer Classic, July 30-Aug. 2, Anaheim, CA

I saw that. I am wondering if something weird happened Rohene's choreography got a little spinny and something that was not intended to check a box did. That would mean the non-spin got the level 1, checked the box and ran out at the end. It is strange whatever happened. Glad to have done it here rather than later!

I only watched it once so far this morning, just after I woke up and without my glasses (so phone about an inch from the end of my nose) but the last spin looked suspect. Hold your bloody positions, boy!

*trots off to watch again*

But the last spin did not count at all, it was not the level 1.

I think his last spin had enough for at least one of the V entries and some points as opposed to "not count" He had two revolutions on each position i think.

Even if that spin was just a fail, which one was the level 1?

Please note I am not trying to be contrary, just trying to understand it better.

EDIT: Upon first viewing, the program is very promising but still looks pretty new to Gracie. Hope she can add some more fire to it as the season goes on. Not sure I'm a huge fan of this music... the crowd got into it during the step sequence but the music didn't give them much to go on. I feel like there are other tango pieces she could have used that might have been better, but I'm looking forward to seeing the program develop!

I feel like the fancam has distorted this music a bit because I spent the whole program going "this is tango music?". However, I have an early contender for dress of the season! :love:

This quad still is not looking too optimistic

4T was <<.

Still trying to work out the spin issue - there could be a couple, but after the camel spin, he goes and does a butterfly and promptly rotates on one foot - maybe for long enough to have it called as a proper spin. Either way, the last spin was definitely no value. I don't think he held a single position for the required two revs on either foot - mayyyyyyyybe at a stretch the sit position on the second foot, but nothing else.

My first reaction to the costume was "Yes! There's no possible way they can ruin this one!" but then it became obvious that it doesn't fit properly, sigh. And I do think his speed needs work. He had practically zero pace going into the quad or the 3A and that makes an already difficult jump harder. I'm not saying he has to be Max, but a little more speed might be helpful for other factors.

At any rate, though, I didn't really see a lot to be concerned about. Just another step in the process.
 
Just for karne. Brendan just finished

Music is medley of Secrets by one Republic. Medley because it was a mix of instrumental string, instrumental piano, original, and piano guys version.

That's all I can remember. Curiously no Lutz or flip?

He went for a three quad long!??!!?!?!?! Wowwwwwwww! Thankyou so much! :)

For this time of year, that's actually a pretty good layout for him. I would be surprised if no Lutz or flip, his 3Lz is quite good. Maybe to be added in later?
 
I'm so buzzingly excited that Brendan did a three-quad long. Force those judges to pay attention, Brendan! Force them to give you real scores instead of them just looking at the flag next to your name!
 
TSL posted a clip from the warmup. Jason's FS costume appears to have purple on it (me likely) and be floaty/gauzy type material. Ruinable, but acceptable for now. ;)
