2016 Skate Canada Short Dance

[blue_idealist]

If you're watching on TSN2, it's Tracy Wilson.

I am watching that, although the stream started flipping back and forth in time, so I might have to switch.

Who is it? I thought it was Tracy Wilson at first?

it is tracy wilson

 

[Plisskin]

They deserve to be in first but I think this is V/M's worst FD. A lot of skaters in that camp have fallen victim to the 3+ disjointed music cuts. Oy. From what I've seen of Yuzu's Prince SP I think he has the best Prince program this season.

 

[Greta]

I really can't stand that music.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Huh, I think this is the first time I've seen Tracy Wilsons commentary criticized.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

First a Chinese team and now a Danish :eeking:

I didn't even realize until tonight some of these countries had dance teams

I know, isn't it wonderful!

 

[ancientpeas]

I liked the second part. The music in the first part is..not my favourite.

 

[Ares]

Sorensen is so good looking
By the way, does anybody know why his name is Nikolaj (That doesn't sound Danish to me)? Is he partially Slavic?

I know another Dane with the same name (Nikolaj) so I doubt that there's any Slavic connection here

 

[WeakAnkles]

The Danes are yet another ho hum fest. But I give him mega bonus points for NOT dressing like an Elvis impersonator.

 

[gravy]

I'm living for all these sexy male ice dancers. Nikolaj

 

[ancientpeas]

And funnily I would give him extra points for dressing like Elvis.

 

[Violet Bliss]

The Eura stream is playing Groundhog Day and 50 First Dates over and over.

 

[Daniel1998]

Also a bit puzzled, since Tracy Wilson is widely regarded as an excellent commentator. I always enjoy her on TV.
She explains the technical stuff a bit for the newer viewers, offers a lot of support and positive feedback, and respectfully points out areas where skaters could improve.
Keep in mind that the TSN audience is largely casual skating fans who are just tuning in to see the Canadians win, which is why you may feel she's biased.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Chock and Bates beat V/M in TES. *head explosion*

 

[andromache]

The Danes are yet another ho hum fest. But I give him mega bonus points for NOT dressing like an Elvis impersonator.

I'm giving him mega bonus points for being gorgeoussssss

He might be the best looking guy I've seen across all the disciplines.

 

[ice coverage]

I hate the ruffle on Tessa's neck. ...

I think Tessa's ruffle is an homage to Prince, no?

I believe one of his iconic looks was a ruffle like that? (Although not purple.)

Anyway, I'm thrilled that Tessa and Scott are back. Can't get enough :luv17:.

 

[ancientpeas]

All finnish teams get my support because of R/K. I miss them just for the craziness.

 

[daphenaxa]

Tracy Wilson? The best in the business, daphenaxa.

well i switched to Russian stream :scard8:

 

[bartlebooth]

The Finns are quite the lookers, as well

 

[Violet Bliss]

I need a good stream, especially for Mens coming up.
