2016 Skate Detroit

[Sam-Skwantch]

Tim had a rough go out there. Those jumps :hopelessness: The program looked a bit eked out so maybe it's just a conditioning thing.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Tim Dolensky: Black pants and casual t shirt- should I even bother describing the costumes for the men? Away My Soul by Mumford and Sons. Gorgeous choreo and gnarly falls pretty much sums up this outing. Makings of a great program when he has more time with it under his belt. 70.45

I approve of the use of Jason Mraz, although that's not my favorite song of his. :agree:

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Daniel Kulenkamp: Black pants,black turtleneck. I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz. Gorgeous skater- reminds me of John Curry. Which is good because otherwise I'd be so bored with this program. 66.78

 

[cheerknithanson]

That was lovely!

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Maybe it's just the long range camera view but these step sequences look incredibly labored and lacking in flow from everyone across the field so far. Maybe I'm just being a poop

Is there a black dress code in effect?

 

[cheerknithanson]

Is it me, or does it seem like "Secrets" by One Republic is turning into a warhorse? If so, I'm okay with it.

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Remind me to visit the "Ban Pop Music" thread after this.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Samuel Angers: Guess what color his pants are. Go on, guess. Black/white ombre top, black gloves. One Republic's Secrets. Another pretty skater (referring to the skating). Nice pancake spin. I think he popped some jumps? 55.59

Goooooooo Keegan!

I'm counting on good performance from Nicolas Nadeau. I want him in Grand Prix.

I don't think it's the camera- I've noticed it, too.

I think I see a pop of color in the next warm up group among the sea of black and white. He's my automatic favorite.

I rewound and found the Kate Finster / Brandon Kozlowski fall. She looked like she was not used to being the one not hurt. He deserves credit for being a gentleman though. He looked like he kept his arms up till the last possible second to try to protect/keep his partner safe. I think he might have been ok had he bailed out soon. On some level it is sweet to see. I hope we get to see more of them and that he is ok - I like seeing nice people have success, so he/them will be one I now root for now.

Nice job from Keegan!

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Finally some nice steps and flow!

 

[cheerknithanson]

YAAASSSSS Keegan!!!!! I thoroughly enjoyed it! He owned that program!

These programs remind me why I prefer men's singles over ladies singles.

 

[cathlen]

I like Singing in the Rain program

 

[ruffledgrouse]

KEEEEEEEEGAAAAAN: Office clothes, no jacket, loose tie. Singin' in the Rain which is perfect for him. Program's a little simple right now, but I bet he'll have a lot of fun with it later in the season, I can already see it in his SS. Oh, Keegan, America didn't appreciate you. May you soar high with the mighty... beavers of Canada? No, that analogy's not gonna work. 79.27

Where did you find it?

 

[cheerknithanson]

Nicolas.......shame about those two jumps. But the rest of the program looked fine....score is going to be low...

 

[cathlen]

And I jinxed Nicolas
