I liked the Germans a lot! Shame about the weird fall They did a samba roll, too! I've been wondering why we haven't seen more of those.

ETA: PB by 5 pts even with a fall!

 

[Baron Vladimir]

yup

Well most of the girls costumes looks the same, only with diferent colours. I hope someone will pull out Barbara Fusar Poli look.

 

[TMC]

Darn twizzles! But I get the hype now, I do

agile, precise in matching each others leg angles... good speed and flow.

however, i am not connecting yet... they are so young... so we will see... age can be a factor for that.

one comment : some people/skaters complain that ballroom dance on ice isn't cool... well.. i love seeing the cha cha... i feel it works on ice...

She does lean forward a bit, I think for speed? But she will have plenty of time to learn to get the push from her blades.

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Well, thats a different kind of dress. And they were good.

 

[4everchan]

good night people i am passing out

 

[TMC]

good night people i am passing out

Good night! :2thumbs:

 

[Baron Vladimir]

Will it be more skating right after Zamboni break?
....oh i see. the pairs...

 

[Winnie_20]

Well, this was a fun event, but I'll be skipping the Pairs FS as I want to catch up with the Ladies SP first. Yay, so much figure skating, overdose!

 

[Jammers]

For the Greens to medal right out of the gate despite being perhaps the youngest team on the JGP this season would be a big deal for them. I think they have a great future and will be beating the Russian teams ahead of them in just a few years if they keep improving which i think they will since they already have such good basics.

I fell in love with them due to their SD last season:

It was really good despite that huge mistake by Caroline on the SBS step.

I noticed the Greens several years ago when they were Novices. Their IT factor was obvious even then.

 

[Hyena]

Yeah, the Greens are something special. Before nationals a couple years ago I saw some posts here about them, paid attention to them during the Novice competition, and was hooked. They are so sharp, smooth, and confident.
