2017 GP Rostelecom Cup Pairs SP

Love the StSq so much

 

[Anni234]

Even with a fall they have this amazing energy like they own the place

 

[xeyra]

Pity about Ksenia's fall but I really liked this!

 

[WeakAnkles]

Now admittedly I am no fan of S/K , but even by that standard it's one of the most bloodless and cold tangos I've ever seen.

Yuck.

Fall on SBS.

 

[MIM]

Wow!! The program and music are just amazing!! But their energy towards the end was getting less and less. If they can nail it, the mastered version of program will be spectacular.

She is disappointed at the KnC. It is only the first GP cheer up!!

Triple twist probs 3Tw1

Love the StSq so much

I really like how they're trying to insert some actual tango feel to their holds and free leg movements, doesn't happen too often with "tango" programs.

 

[kevinVchicago]

Maybe M/H should have been ahead of them, no?

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Wow, GS went from normal speed to straight up crashing in five minutes for me. What happened?

 

[kevinVchicago]

Where Rachmaninoff goes, I will follow.

 

[xeyra]

Going to have to run home in order to catch the first group of ladies after this. Wish me luck!

Small mistake from her, but their pair elements are so nice...

SP: 39.94+36.94 = 76.88, 1/8

 

[ruffledgrouse]

And now it's back to normal

Anyway, I hope my bbs T/M can smooth out this program. I can't help comparing it to Mao's FS and... that's not good for T/M.

I wonder how much more expressive Vladimir would look with eyebrows

Wow, GS went from normal speed to straight up crashing in five minutes for me. What happened?

Same here, seems OK now.

 

[kevinVchicago]

I like Tarasova/Morozov's ending pose, but there is too much arm swinging in that program
Looks like lumberjacks
Chop chop

 

[s_parks]

I love how they manage to make the programs utterly forgettable even when the music choice is right.
They're almost too proper? And it doesn't help they're pretty much anti-M/D as far as charisma goes... rach no. 2 was perhaps not that great of a choice for a russian pair.

 

[tulosai]

Well I saw it all!!!!!

Biggest achievement of my week

 

[cathlen]

Should easily be in lead. Loveed their twist.

 

[GGFan]

Not quite Moskvina level choreography but I'll take it from T/M! This is so much more worthy of their exquisite style and skating skills.
