2018 Olympic Figure Skating Short Dance

[draqq]

Mysliveckova / Csolley

Rhumba pattern could have deeper edges but good speed (Level 2). The partial step could much closer to the beat but nice edges (Level 3). Good lift with a great balance point. Twizzles had a little bit of a sync issue in places the twizzles are fine (Level 4). Decent speed and edges through the midline (Level 3).

The dance was bit on the nose with good acceleration. Fairly good energy in the performance but not very original or interesting. I felt like she was giving more energy, though, compared to her partner, could be because he's all in black.

They don't know how to make hearts with their hands. I think they are disqualified.

It does, cause we already have more teams to get Rhumba level 4 just 2.5 groups in then we had for ALL OF THE TEAM EVENT.

That means nothing. They've had time to review and prepare AND there are way more teams here than the team event.

Tanith is one person. Her word is not gospel.

That's Barbara Fuliposi?! What happened to her red hair! Was that dye job? Or is this the dye job?

She's barely recognisible, we need a stare to prove it

Big cheer for the Korean skaters good luck guys!

Yes, but only 3 teams AND deservedly so for at least 2 of them. Co/Bu Rumba was excellent and Z/G have been often getting lvl4 pattern all season IIRC.

I agree with Tanith. This calling is inconsistent. I'm not saying she's perfect, but she's spot on. What planet does Virtue and Moir deserve a level 2 and these teams get level 4. It's the SAME EXACT PANEL.

Although yes, Anyasnake, I don't want to say not ALL of them deserve it. I agree with Zarhorksi/Guererro and Coomes/Buckland level 4.

Will this costume once again be an issue? :shocked:

 

[ruffledgrouse]

There's a throwback. Remember being so young you didn't know that fanfiction existed, and that you were the only one making up Sailor Moon stories with your sister, and they were SO GOOD that you were sure that if you just sent them to the producers, they'd surely make a new season just about your OCs?

Warning: topic:

I remember surfing anglefire Gundam Wing fansites and stumbling on fanfiction for the first time. But I had no idea what fanfiction was, so I thought they were translations of official stories that just hadn't been released in America yet.

It was a 3x4 yaoi lemon!!! :reye::eeking:
I went to school the next day telling all my friends, "No, really guys, they're totally boyfriends!"


Ok, back to ice dance. Lucy and Lucas are so cute, I love her dress. Did they just barely qualify?

 

[Princessroja]

I love Lucie's dress *concept* in terms of color but I think it'd be hard to find a less flattering style. A pity, since I'm sure she's tiny IRL but that dress doesn't show her off at all.

 

[GGFan]

I just can't with this cut of My All. Really guys???

There's still one team below them qualified so they're not the last of the last.

I'd give my alllllllllll.
To not not hear
Desperacitoooooooooo
One more time
Cause I can't go on
Listening to the Olympics
With that song

 

[gravy]

Mi orgullo es ser Latina
de mar y cordillera



I love Thalia!

That might be the best set of twizzles I've ever seen the Korean team do :eeking:
