Two red boxes to match her dress...

Did anyone mention that she’s skating to Carmen yet? I looked up and down in the thread, nowhere to be found.

This is not Ivett's day.

at least the music cuts are rather nice

 

[Metis]

Well, at least it's a nice, classic rendition of Carmen not whatever Gabby Daleman is skating to...

I have this dream of Daleman skating to Mancini with a better costume. She could work it.

This program by Toth is making me want to rewatch Virtue and Moir's Carmen (she's using some similar cuts)

 

[Ylyzybyth]

IVETT what are you doing to us?

 

[cheerknithanson]

Just cause a song is iconic doesn't mean it's a good idea to use.

 

[SpiffySpiders]

Oh, they're calling under rotations tonight? Curious if that will continue as we move to the later flights.

So we've had POTO, potential newcomer to the 'modern' warhorse arsenal The Winner Takes It All (please no), and now we get Carmen. Women, what are you all doing to me? Especially you, sp rockerchick Ivett.

Xiangning's jumps get good height but not much distance. Looked tight, might be URs

Yes, nice pop but not distance. Honestly, they remind me of Alina Zagitova's jumps but at least Alina completes the rotation. The same can't be said for Ziangning.

 

[SarahSynchro]

Oh nos... lyrics!

 

[CellarDweller]

just my personal opinion.....I always roll my eyes whenever I hear a commentator talk about "telegraphing" a jump. Aren't all jumps telegraphed to some degree? I mean, I don't ever remember seeing a program and thinking "Oh, a jump just happened, what a surprise!"

It's pretty evident for all skaters (IMO) when a jump is about to be attempted.

 

[charmblade]

I prefer Ivett when she chooses less conventional music choices.

 

[OS]

Hanul's presence makes me wonder, why wasn't Yuna in Torino? Surely she was already number 1 in Korea.

Same reason Mao was not in Torino. They just missed the cut off age.

I thought it was Candyman.

I hope that strictness in UR calls stays for later groups

You already know it won't, unfortunately!:scowl:

 

[loop9497]

Toth should've stuck to AC-DC! She fits that style better!

Yeah, I'm thinking she needs more upbeat music to skate faster.

 

[MiRé]

I want Kurt to read me bed time stories. I love listening to him

edited for...repeated post (GS having Carmen indigestions)

 

[SarahSynchro]

IVETT what are you doing to us?

Making ears bleed from every end of the earth.

 

[fleeting]

Wow, Ivett's fighting back!
That first half wasn't good, but she's baaaaaack

I love my ACDC skating queen.
