Hot take: I hate that contemporary dance has leaked into practically every dance-related venture. It's a poor cousin of ballet and jazz.

Oooooo... I'm going to fight you on that one, says the modern dance teacher. :dev2:

 

[WeakAnkles]

One of my fave FDs of the year.. I do hope they stick together for the next quad.

I got an email from a student asking if I could hold off on collecting homework cause they wanna watch the ice dancing tonight. I admire the boldness of admitting they just want to watch TV and boy did they get lucky in finding just the right person to accept this excuse

 

[kevinVchicago]

This program just transports me...:luv17:

Yes, that's exactly it.

So long as we allow federations to nominate their judges rather than it being centrally chosen by the an unbiased panel appointed by the ISU, nonsense like this will continue and the most biased judges will be nominated for Olympic judging spots.

I agree, but the ISU?? Unbiased????

 

[Giselle]

Wow that panel. No French judge.
I don't think P/C have a chance but whatever, V/M are worthy 2 time OGM and P/C are young and will have another shot.

Hoping for great skates from everyone tonight

I've always wondered why Chris didn't partner with his other sister Allison after Cathy retired. Allison's then-partnership ended at the same time.

Though I am glad to see Chris and Kana doing well. She's a lovely skater.

I really enjoyed their skate today :agree:.

Muramoto / Reed

Slightly off-sync in the twizzles but still well done (Level 4). Nice edging and smooth circular step (Level 3). Nice illusion out of the combo spin, could have a bit more speed (Level 4). Beautiful around-the-neck changes of position in the stationary lift. Smooth exit out of the spread eagle lift. Diagonal step sequence had good quantity of steps and nice lobes (Level 3). Great choreographic lift right to the end of the music.

"Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence" Wonderful piece of music that I listen to in my spare time sometimes. I like the silence through the music that they were able to capture without ruining the moment. Their phrasing and edge security was better than their effort in the team event. It's nice to have program be set to a single piece of music with natural changes in tempos in the music that editing two together. Of course, it could be faster and have better body lines, but a strong performance from them today.

How does Tiffani always skate with her hair down like that? It’s not that short.

 

[kevinVchicago]

I'm making a cherry pie now.

Were you inspired by Tiffani's hair?

 

[Mista Ekko]

Zagorski looks like a girl i would wanna photograph for a fashion magazine

 

[Heleng]

Nice performance from Kana and Chris, best I've seen of this fd.

It's okay, I still respect you as a person and forum-friend

 

[cheerknithanson]

Why does the costumes look perfect for the program?

 

[SarahSynchro]

Oh boy, the exogenesis hour is amongst us... But that’s ok because I actually like it.
