What is with this need to use COVERS of U2? Isn't Bono good enough for you?

Shake it off Deanna! You got this!

Yeah why does no one use Bono/U2? Would love me some mysterious ways...

 

[skatefan17]

Absolutely adore this music.

Yes, I mentioned that yesterday during the short, it must bring out all the emotions for Marina being here as a coach. Wasn’t she the one who ran over to them first to start CPR? :sad21:

Yes she was, sorry I couldn't be here yesterday.

Didn't someone else skate to some dodgy U2 cover yesterday? So many bad cover songs in skating...

It was D/R! which goes to show you exactly how memorable these covers make your program

Oh good, now we get real U2.

for me, only U2 can cover U2 properly, and 'You're the best thing about me' would make a great exhibiton imo

cool exit on the first lift!

The all choreographers are likely still bitter over the time Apple snuck the entire new U2 album onto their iPhones.

It does have a certain romantic grandeur

 

[college pat]

stellato and bartholomay-is fighting through this. slow and off on side by side . i hope continue to skate decent

not bad from them. could have been better yes, but did well. i am happy for them.

 

[skatefan17]

Those spins though.

 

[Winnie_20]

Real, proper U2! Praise the music gods!

 

[Seren]

I really enjoyed that. They had some cool lifts, and she has great expression.

 

[cleo2070]

... what odd music cuts. Is anyone else's volume going up and down?

I dunno, I actually liked the cover version that D/R used...

 

[skatefan17]

I like them. I wish they would improve.

 

[GGFan]

Continued improvement by S/B. They have better stamina and better elements. Love her. She sells and hits nice positions.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Deanna: we had not missed any of those all week! :furious:

 

[blue_idealist]

Anyone else scared by how close that one set of camel spins was? If he wasn't as tall, resulting in his leg being a little higher than hers, it looks like they could have hit (his blade to her head!).

Stellato / Bartholomay

Tech: Fall from Stellato on sbs 3S. Okay 3Twist. Good throw 3S. Death spiral could have better stretch. Forward landing from Bartholomay on sbs 3T+2T but landed. Touch down of foot on throw 3Lo. A bit slow on the combo spin and the sbs spins. The exit out of a few of their lifts are a bit hesitant.

Pres: Also a fairly clean performance with one fall and one minor mistake. They're still a fairly new team so their transitions and choreography are rather rudimentary, and the music is more of a backdrop to their movements. But they should still quite good about their performance today.

Was her salchow underrotated?
