2018 NHK Free Dance

[GGFan]

I don't love the music but somehow Kaitlin saved it with her acting for me. Jean Luc is such and phenomenal skater. I just wish he could go to the Fabri school of short men lifts--some of their lifts still look awkward. I hope they're rewarded here!

 

[Colonel Green]

At this point, yeah, looks like the Brits win the free. They're 4+ points ahead of H/B in TES.

Was anyone on the ice besides Jean-Luc? I couldn't take my eyes off of him.

I think they can make up for it in PCS, honestly.

 

[Princessroja]

No you're right. Fear and Gibson really need to work on their RD. That's really holding them back from getting on podiums.

I can't imagine how frustrating it's going to be to win the FD and not get a medal. But that might spur them on to get that RD sorted.

Um, are Lilah and Lewis going to win the free dance?

Probably, yes.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Oh god, I can't wait for the scoring on this. It's going to be SO TIGHT.

Do you think they can do it?

 

[ancientpeas]

Sorry folks.
Virtue Moir do not own Moulin Rouge and Guillaume & Gaby do not own "To build a home"

I liked the Parsons' interpretation.

I'll just show myself out

yes..but do T/D own Bolero. I would say as far as IDers go they do.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Japan loves them. The Japanese audience always brings out their best.

Given that I saw that program in 17 second bursts, it's hard to judge it. But some of it is just wow. Some of it still looks underrehearsed. But they have massive room to grow with that over the season.

That free dance felt very Gadbois. He is very impressive, but I wanted them to do something less lyrical

Do you think they can do it?

THey have 2.5 points on Z/G in tech, and probably better PCS too ... they were 5 points back in the RD.

Kevin Aymoz has the best program to this song, but I actually enjoyed H/B. What's really nice is to see more assertiveness from Katelin.

Yes, I noticed that yesterday, too, and even in today's warmups. She looks so much more confident. I know it has been a problem for her in the past so extra great to see.

No one owns, but your interpretation better be on point if there's a recent one that everyone remembers..

 

[cheerknithanson]

Omg!!!!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

FIRST!!!

 

[jillredhand]

RISE H/B, RISE!!!! Yessss That was so good! Deserved to win, I'd say, though I like Z/G too.

 

[Mrs. P]

Whew, so glad H/B won the FD, but not by much, dang!

 

[GGFan]

H/B won their first GP!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe it!! :hap57::hap93:

Made my weekend!

 

[Weathergal]

Yes!!! Their first gold. Is it their first GP medal?

 

[Mohacz]

H/B song sound exactly the same as "To Build a Home". At first I thought they were also skating to it.
