2016 Rostelecom Cup Short Dance

[Jammers]

LOL at these scores. It shows it's in Russia. They wont get as much for the rest of the season. 37 PCS, are you serious ? It's slow as hell. Tech mark is also ridicoulous.

Well of course it's high its COR. There is a reason skaters hate going to this GP. The judging has always been highly suspect when it comes to the Russians here.

On flats? You mean flat on her blade? Sorry I'm not much of a skater.

Yes. She's not on an edge.

LOL, ~75 for B&S. When in Russia.

B/S may have my favorite blues section of the SD so far. It's sexy and sultry and what you want a blues to be. But I remain TOTALLY UNCONVINCED that those two pieces work together. It's such a weld job.

It'll be close.

Yeah, agree on the blues. And yes...on the music blend---I was trying to figure out how the heck you would dance to Sing Sing Sing after a steamy night. Anyway, better not to think too hard about it.

Oh god, are WeaPo even going to make the GPF?!? :sad21:

They are CAN 3rd team, they wont. It was already written.

I love her hair and he's adorable. I might just have to stan them

Because I am focusing so much on edges this year, I have really started to notice the heels of skaters boots. Madison Chock and Jean-Luc Baker skate with "high heels" while others like Kaitlyn Hawayek have "short heels". Not only does the height vary but so does the thickness. Weird how I only noticed it this year but now I am obsessed!

JeanLuc's are high because he wears lifts to make him look taller than his partner.

This one garter look is irritating me. It looks like a wardrobe malfunction.

They are against the Shibs at CoC, so I don't see them beating them even clean (sorry). They need a 2nd here to be competitive...Although, I think there will be a lot of teams going 2-3 (Gilles Poirer, maybe Bobrova/Soloviev, maybe Hubbell/Donohue), so it's going to come down to the points.

What's G/P's second assignmemt?

 

[Idontsk8]

ESP PT laides are saying that WeaPo came to play the field and not really to make a good result and despite the program being fun they need to work super hard.

No one has welded a good enough music combo this year for me... except Anna and Luca. They all felt very disconnect. I don't know why.

Cup of China
EDIT: Sorry I thought you meant W/P

Tiffany had such a hard time getting released to Russia. It probably would've been easier for Jonathan to get released to France and have a chance of actually being put on a World/Olympic team.

 

[ancientpeas]

Is it just me or do these two pieces of music seem.. totally not a good fit?

And if I saw their last names I would say they were American. I'd never guess Russian. Interesting.

The first song might be a bit too risque. I have no problem with it but.. it's definitely dirty.

Trophee de France next week.

B/S PCS is high -- but they are not a SLOW team. They are pretty fast actually. It's one of those you have to see them live things.

What's G/P's second assignmemt?

France.

I need a drink. Oh god this is so depressing.

 

[Lota]

Yeah, the score for B/S is a little high, but even TAT said, we're in Russia Honestly, I felt they were undermarked at SA, so I'm ok with the score, especially since Americans were marked just as high at SA and Canadians - at SC.

With that hair color, she should skate as Raggedy Ann in the exhibition.
