Home team did well!

Well done by the Home Team! The flags are waving in the stands.

I saw a sign with their names on it up in the stands during the men, but sadly I didn't remember they were the Home Team.

Also, they did their twizzles in a row!

Doris.. is it easier to get a level 4 lift or twizzle in Jr. than in Sr or is a level 4 a level 4 in both?

 

[ancientpeas]

I love Sasha's dress. So pretty.

troubles with the twizzles by him on the second set

And did his free foot touch down in the spin? Levels might be lost

This is nice flowy music. Calming. I want it in my dentist's office.

not so fast. Now we have the tooth drilling part of the music

rotational lift just ok. I want him to be more secure on his feet.

Nice stationary lift to end. She's in a split with his leg along side. It makes a nice picture.

He is is blue skiing underwear, she has a lovely pale blue dress.

Dmitri and Katya's music from last year. Without the blindness though.

 

[dorispulaski]

Rules are the same for levels, junior and senior last I knew.

The thing that may be different is what elements and pattern dances are required for a well balanced program.

I am running a bit behind the action btw. Coffee.

 

[BillNeal]

I liked the sychronized choreographed slide.

 

[ancientpeas]

I liked the sychronized choreographed slide.

Yeah.. that was cool.

The reason I asked, Doris, is because some of these twizzles that are getting level 4 I don't think would get a level four in seniors.

 

[BillNeal]

And Sasha Fear and George Wadell both have siblings competing in Ice Dance, Lilah Fear with Lewis Gibson and Bruce Wadell with Natalie D'Alessandro.

Ah there you are France! I couldn't see you in the warm-up.

Once again, your costumes don't disappoint.

 

[ancientpeas]

There is a whole lot going on with her dress. I expect drama. BIG DRAMA!

She's in purple, he's in black. On the tiny screen there is something about him that reminds me of Ross Miner, but not close up.

twizzles a bit off early

This rotational lift is rather much.

They are pushing along like a freight train. Going for the speed.

There is a paint by numbers feel to this for me. Items put together in a workman like way. I liked their rD better.

That lady announcer with the 'zzzz :yawn:' voice makes me appreciate the japanese and even american announcers so much more.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Lila-Maya's dress reminds me of one of Tonya Harding's (I watched I, Tonya on DVD the other day.)

This is very interesting choreography! Shame about that fall though!

Um falls now! He looks a bit tired.

 

[ancientpeas]

Does anyone know why the Lithuania GP symbol is a tandem bicycle?

 

[BillNeal]

Oh no.. another fall.

 

[BillNeal]

Nice closing lift tho with cool change of position.

 

[ancientpeas]

That ending position was not attractive. Kind of.. clinical.

Ah there you are France! I couldn't see you in the warm-up.

Once again, your costumes don't disappoint.

Their music choice tho
