Amanda Peterson / Stephano Valentino Schuster
Country: Germany
Music: Tango: Baron Muenchhausen by Roman Sourzha / Tango: Borges y Paraguay by Bajafondo
Choreography by: Maria Tumanovskaia-Chaika
Costumes: Black dress with red highlight panel for her, Black pants, black shirt with central red striped panel for him.

Required Elements:

AT pattern - Nicely sinuous and very musical. They need to work on skating closer together
Twizzles - He lost his balance on the first set and fell out of it. Big mistake
Midline Step Sequence - big change of tempo needs a big change of energy which they didn't bring
Straight line lift - good position. Nicely done.

I really liked their AT pattern, which was so musical. The music change is good (and I really like that first piece of music), but they need to bring more energy to the second half of the dance). There's a good dance here. Now they need to dance it.

Score: 46.81 (24.82 TES, 21.99 PCS)

Never seen a gray dress for a tango before! I kind of like it though!

Jury's still out on the suspenders :laugh:

Emiliya Kalehanova / Uladzislau Palkhouski
Country : Belarus
Music:
Choreography by:
Costumes: Lovely grey dress with pink flower (and pink flower in her hair) for her. Unusual and lovely choice. White shirt with black pants and black suspenders for him.

Required Elements:

Midline step sequence - pleasant but cautious
Straight line lift - good positions but awkward exit. Need to smooth that out.
AT pattern - need more extension and need to skate it bigger. The tempo changed and the AT pattern needs to reflect that change of energy
Twizzles - a bit bobbly but not bad.

Weird tempo change, a bit abrupt. But not bad at all.

Score: 52.21 (29.77 TES, 22.44 PCS)

I've never seen a grey dress and suspenders for a tango program before, interesting.

Giuilia Tuba / Andrea Tuba
Country: Italy
Music: Tango: La Cumparsita
Choreography by: Massimo Scali, Claudio Jurman
Costumes: Lovely black dress with a red and white sequined serpentine pattern for her; basic black for him

Required Elements:

Twizzles - small balance check but nice speed. One of the better of the day
AT pattern - Their posture is just bizarre. They pitch forward so it makes the pattern seem off kilter. It's all about the extension of the free leg and the rolls and flow. And if you're pitching it forward like that, it throws it off kilter.
Straight line lift - Good
Diagonal Step Seq - good choreography but need to attack more.

Project out kids. It will bring this dance to life.

Score: 46.09 (26.45 TES, 19.64 PCS)

It’s interesting to be getting a sense of what a good score in the RD under the new scoring system is.

Very nice! As soon as the final scores go up it's naptime for me though, starting to nod off as is.
