2017 GP Rostelecom Cup Free Dance

[andromache]

Is it something about the costume/styling or does Piper's posture look bad?

Sexy lift.

I don't follow Canadian ice dance too closely - can they overtake WeaPo this year? WeaPo's FD is truly bad.

Yooooooooo that entry into the first lift

ok, nice noir flair on the twizzles

I'm liking this more than last time. Maybe this will be like their Beatles program, which started out meh but became one of my favorites my Worlds

The classic Duchesnays FD is on youtube. You need to go and watch it ASAP!

ETA: here you go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coM4d1CQZfs

That was beautiful and enriching. Thank you for sharing a bit of skating history this morning!

 

[Baron Vladimir]

That stationary lift

 

[Anyasnake]

This ending is the coolest I've ever seen haha !

Her dress is a quiet atrocity.

 

[nimi]

Yay! They looked strong!

(Now waiting for the inevitable underscoring... )

 

[Lota]

This little experiment of theirs is not for me. I love last year's FD but this one doesn't grab me nearly as much. It's very stylish and I really hope it'll grow on me throughout the season.

 

[cathlen]

Loved it! Piper dress is perfect

 

[Barb]

Piper needs a better dress.

 

[kevinVchicago]

You have part I from 1988 (which is more original) and part II from 1990 which is better skated one

Thank you! Their 1988 program looks totally wild!!!

 

[GGFan]

I love G/P but what are they going for in this program. Is he a PI and she a femme fatale? Is he meeting up with her for a rendezvous at a smoky joint? I'm trying to figure out the storyline because this music needs some point of view. Is Paul supposed to be cool and aloof and then passionate as the program goes on? I'm not getting it.

 

[jillredhand]

Love this FD for Gilles/Poirier. Noir, baby!

 

[nolangoh]

the middle part is a little too cold and static, need to bring up something. otherwise its good!

 

[matcha]

I need more sultriness if this program is going to work.

 

[bramweld]

I mean the scores for P/M are bordering on downright insulting now. I just cannot.

 

[ancientpeas]

The opinions on the dress are all over the place in here.

I thought they were good but the TES is low.

Yeah but they changed the middle section of the music then

 

[LittleLotte29]

Not a fan of this program. Feels very static and very non-noir

 

[Roast Toast]

That double cantilever move is a thing of beauty. Sets the mood of the program perfectly. That TES is looking worryingly low though.
