I liked Z/K's program and esp. their costumes. Lovely, sleek and modern. The lifts a little rough.

Ooops, I think I meant the Swiss couple before Z/K. Sorry. But I loved Z/K, great Kidman/McGregor music, lovely connection and skating throughout.

on the phone again?
come on, someone take the phone from the kid.
I realise how unbelievable this is going to sound - but I am able to ignore my phone when it rings. And I can do this whenever I choose eg. when I am driving, in theatre or restaurant or cinema of somesuch... or indeed, when I am watching skating.

This is an ability so rare, it is considered a super-power by many...

What blows my mind is this guy is AT WORK, and his bosses WILL KNOW he was doing this. It's unprofessional.

Too bad about the doubled jumps and that terrible fall, otherwise Lubov and Dylan's program is absolutely gorgeous, I basically didn't breathe all the way through haha

Another really rough skate... gorgeous lifts though.

also on a very petty/superficial note she should really do something with her hair.

Other than the hard fall on the first throw, that was a pretty solid outing by Lubov and Dylan! :) I love their lifts especially! Plus, I am pretty impressed with how 'believably classical' Dylan looks. He definitely looks like a different skater with Lubov than he did with Kirsten.

I agree - I didn't like how she styled her hair in either the short or the long.

Love the program and Love the skating,
I just wonder if Lubov is ever gonna attempt a SBS jump :\
Dylan on the other hand is doing everything, At least they get the 5 points out of the Quad Flip too.

I had to look twice before I was convinced that she wasn't actually wearing a mullet :slink:

Gorgeous program though

Very solid score for them especially with mistakes- very close to their PB and it's very early in the season.

Not to mention, extremely rude not to have your phone on silent while in a competition arena. Someone needs to have a word to him. The ringing will be audible to others, not to mention his conversations.

Lubov and Dylan, a simply gorgeous skate and gorgeous music. Their style together is so complementary, both strong and balletic, with just the right amount of soft flexibility in their posture. I'd forgotten about the mistakes by the end.

Who are you talking about? If me, you're both making a lot of incorrect assumptions...

I found A/R's program to be rather strange. There were some moments that were really interesting in a good way, and then other moments that were really interesting in not such a good way. ;)

I really liked some of their choreography, but I think their spins need work - as well as some of their positions more generally.
