Guys I think you should read the hobbies of Lorenza and Pierre

Piper and Paul have been spoofing the hobby section for years and they're much better at it:

Loved it. Speed, amazing edges and body shapes - and so smooth. They just get better.

 

[Alba]

Cizeron isprobably the best male ID in the history of this sport, I think.

p.s. nola, that is funny.

 

[snowflake]

I thought it was funny that the announcer said that next was the "Short mens program". So any tall men need not apply?

Dmitriev go home! - LOL, at least the only man that looks tall(er) to me.

 

[ancientpeas]

Better than Christopher Dean? Better than Platov?

Adding the standard reminder for everyone that any comparison of scores from different comps should be taken a grain of salt.

V/M at Skate Canada:

77.23 = 39.57 TES + 37.66 PCS
http://www.isuresults.com/results/season1617/gpfra2016/SEG007.HTM
​

For those who will rush to add that V/M skated on home soil, of course the same is true for P/C.
So IMO, it is way too early to write off V/M.

Congrats to P/C for winning the SD here.

Hope Madi and Zach can move up with their FD.

protcols say a lot.... many teams lost levels.... goe is through the roof for some too http://www.isuresults.com/results/season1617/gpfra2016/gpfra2016_IceDance_SD_Scores.pdf

I find Cizeron has weird movements. It seems he can't stretch his body to full extention and always curved awdwardly. It hurts my eyes to watch sometimes.

 

[cathlen]

I will hold comparing V/M and P/C to NHK Trophy, when they're actually will compete against each other, and on neutral ground too

Reading protocols, and it's so weird. Piper and Paul get better levels on almost every element at SC. No wonder the score differs so much... I need them to show off tomorrow so much! Judges were very generous for I/Z with GOE, H/D had actually higher BV, I think judges may not like their SD concept this season...

 

[yuna13]

finally we saw then in hq!!

love gaby acting during this sd and as always with them great movement from their entire bodies.

 

[4everchan]

omg... the presenters ... lol ... relax your jaw lady... and man, to speak english, it's not true you need to have a hot potato in your mouth...

 

[Alba]

Better than Christopher Dean? Better than Platov?

Maybe not quite there technically. But boy he is smooth and let's face it, he is damn gorgeous to look at also. That does count smth in this discipline also.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Better than Christopher Dean? Better than Platov?

Definitely better than Platov, and that is not meant to take anything away from Platov, who was absolutely marvelous.

More of a toss up with Christopher Dean. Let's call it a tie. Fair 'nuff?

piper and paul are well-known for hitting their levels everywhere... this is strange... but i am no expert.. (sure twizzles but the other elements as well?)

Reading protocols, and it's so weird. Piper and Paul get better levels and key on almost every element at SC. No wonder the score differs so much...

 

[ancientpeas]

okay. I hardly consider myself an expert but I always thought Platov should get all the medals for putting up with the drama.

Then don't watch him.
I personally find him the most interesting male dancer I think I have ever seen.

 

[rosy14]

It looked like they got too close to one another mid twizzle.

She stumbled in the second twizzle and nearly fell on the third.

All couples (well, except PC) lost levels today, compared with their previous competitions. They left some precious points out there despite errors.

 

[Rossig]

he is damn gorgeous to look at also.

I love watching P&C, but I don't find Cizeron handsome at all. Maybe he shaved beard, he would look better.

He's very smooth and fluid, maybe sometimes even too fluid, if that's possible. And maybe that's why you have such an impression.
