2017 Russian Nationals Pairs SP

[sunnystars]

pretty but the choreography is a bit disjointed for me

 

[Idontsk8]

Great elements and quality, but what the... with this arrangement of Clair de Lune? It's so disjointed and weird. Anyway they seemed to be enjoying themselves a lot, particularly Ksenia :luv17:

 

[EdgeCall]

Clair de Lune and S/K's cold, technical style, this is a match that needs getting used to. But they did quite well.

 

[cathlen]

I'm not sure, but I think Tat is praising them a lot. And calling them an Olimpic hope?

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Beautiful. Just beautiful.

I may have made a mistake putting Yuko and Sasha on top...

(But, their programmes are beautiful too. The question is whether Yuko is fit).

Ok, I know that strictly speaking this is a reply to a comment you posted in another thread. But, you were saying that the ESPN3 coverage is the best.

Can it be viewed outside America? And if so, where can you find it?

Oh, and is there commentary on it?

I'm pretty sure ESPN is only streamable in the USA, but I haven't tried to access from another country. There's English commentary from Ari Zakarian & Tatjana Flade. I have the entire 2016 Russian Nats from last year on my YouTube. Just started uploading the Men's SP now from today.

Anyway, the website for watching ESPN is: http://www.espn.com/watchespn/index#type/upcoming/

 

[marusya19]

Yep! She was so fascinated and delighted that gave the word to talk about the technical elements of Maxim.

 

[ragdoll]

So what do you all think of Stolbova/Klimov's choice of music? Nice and clean skate but I somehow feel that it's not the best choice of style and music for them. I would have prefered to see something a bit more quirky and unusual. I love this pair and maybe the programme will grow on me. I hope it will, anyway.

 

[atsumiri]

S/K - This program is stunning. I love it :luv17::luv17:

I thought it was great, they needed this soft approach to come back and Mozer's students always have this beautiful lines that makes every classical piece a joy to watch.

But no spin at the end of the program?

Yeah, just went in and they were talking about subscriptions. So, I'll stick with the Russians.

Although, I'm actually going to leave now and have my dinner.

But, I'll be back for Group 3.

Ari talking about the Nutcracker again. Some things never change year after year!

Tbh I liked it, and also the fact that they had the courage to try. It's an unusual contrast between audio and visuals, but I think they made it work. It looked more avantgarde, not so much a "bad fit".

 

[Mirunna]

T/M with messy spin, S/K with messy twist. Scores should be close but I personally preferred S/K on the night. And I would bet my money on S/K holding it together in the LP

 

[sabinfire]

T/M have higher tech! They will probably lead S/K.

 

[Yatagarasu]

Aww TAT going how long we've waited for you for Stolbova/Klimov. I love that program Now to jump in live

 

[Mirunna]

Tarasova lands the throws similar to Totmianina!

 

[sabinfire]

S/K still get higher PCS.

 

[cathlen]

S/K still get higher PCS.

IMO, rightfully

Good to see Asthakova/Rogonov skating well Not ideal, but still well.
