2016 Trophée de France Pairs SP

[ancientpeas]

Well that was a good, but short, show. I hope dance will be a good.

I think the placements are correct. I don't know about marks because I think GOE's have become largely arbitrary and have little to do with what goes on on the actual ice.

Someone needs to slap J4 on the back of the head. How is the S/M not a plus 3 GOE. If anything was a plus three that element is.

Editing my own remark because they also only gave T/M a plus 2 and I thought it was a three and seems to be the harshest marker of all the pair twists. I guess as long as your consistent it is okay.

Only a level two twist for Bruno and Aliona? Must be that same tech caller from Rostelcom.

 

[HanDomi]

I adore, really adore S/M sp. Some choreography masterpiece there


I think they need to create special twist GOE for for them, because nothing comes even close to quality of this twist. Only Sui/Han quad twist

But a 10.00 in composition from J5!

I mean, yeah, it was pretty great, but a perfect ten?

Calm yo'self.

 

[ancientpeas]

Harsh on everyone though. I would have given T/M a three as well. It was lovely and soft.

As we used to say when I was in school "take a chill pill". Am I giving away my age?

 

[SarahSynchro]

Two calls for a base level twist for J/C and Z/K? Were they really that poorly done?

German judge could have been subtler

That explains that 10.00.

No because I have a seven year old who currently uses that expression.

Germany and France = practically the same country = home cooking!

Everything old is new again. I nearly died when I saw that leg warmers came back in fashion awhile back. They were my favourite fashion trend of my high school years.

 

[HanDomi]

but the judge who gave 0 GOE on throw 3A should be stopped from judging right away. This is kind of judging that should be banned

And on today of all days...

Can I just say that I'm really proud of all of you who have posted in this thread. We are sixteen pages in and I've yet to see the terms "Kaetlyn Osmond", "Skate Canada" and "inflation" used. I think this might be a new record for this year's GP threads discussing any discipline.
