2016 Skate Canada Short Dance

[ancientpeas]

When does the men start?

 

[Lota]

Yeah, they also got level 1 on something, didn't hear on what though.

 

[Ares]

I don't mind the odd music - I really enjoyed Stepanova / Bukin dance I think that change of the rhythms to current ones is really good for entertainment, makes SD more versatile too. I was little bit fatigued by all those soppy, samey waltzes

 

[sunnystars]

Unrelated note, Seems like TSN is showing more of Yuzu footage....

 

[TMC]

what's his name?

Alexander Svinin, S/B's coach.

I'm trying to find a good photo of him online because I want to frame it and give it to my mum for Xmas

 

[Lota]

He also said he did not understand dance scoring. I feel less humiliated now.

Tbh, even the judges don't seem to understand how to score (and not only in ice dance), so nothing to feel embarrassed about

 

[WeakAnkles]

S/B in fifth. Yeah, that's fair. Snow, you're right--she has stiff knees. He has a personality on ice that just scrams, Yes, I'm totally adorable.

All in all, pretty fair judging methinks. And an enjoyable competition.

Holy crap, this has been a looooong day. And we still have the men's short! I need a caffeine injection.

Are you a fan, weakankles? Because every time you opened your mouth, negetivity dripped out. Forgive me for thinking the opposite.

 

[Ares]

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

Here you are

It's 3 AM here in Poland I guess I have to be a pretty special case to watch this right now (I am a guy too ) and not from the country where figure skating is popular.

And frankly the CTV commentary is rapidly becoming a bit of a bore. I want to see Ice Dance, not the Tessa & Scott show (and I say this as a MAJOR Voir fan).

It's called filler WeakAnkles. What other country is showing 8 hours of figure skating on a major network, on a Friday in October.

 

[chuckm]

V/M ahead by just 1 point. Makes you wonder what marks they'd get outside of Canada.......

 

[olayolay]

Chock/Bates being anywhere near Virtue/Moir is just ridiculous. Their blues pattern was practically unwatchable. Madi couldn't find an edge with a search party.

But you could do filler, Osmond4gold, while looking at the discipline AS A WHOLE, not just The Tessa & Scott Are Back! And! Better! Than! Ever! show. This a terrific cross-section of ice dance teams, but you'd never know that from CTV.

Thanks. I rebooted my computer and got the B Euro to work properly now.

4 AM in Lithuania... The troubles we go through, right?

 

[Matt K]

C/B should be in 4th place. Their PCS is actually quite low though, even if I think it should be even lower. They both are not strong skaters and ice dancers.

 

[humbaba]

I like this sd. This is my favourite hip hop sd. I really like the transition before the twizzles, the hip hop part and the final move. One bad thing for me it's that I tried to watch him but my eyes go back to madi all the time.

The transition into Chock/Bates' twizzles is incredible. It's one of my favorite ice dance moves this season.

Oh I see, you're one of the "If it isn't UNQUALIFIED UBER PRAISE then it's nothing but negativity."

Whatever.
