2018 Olympic Figure Skating Short Dance

[Baron Vladimir]

Red is the warmest color

 

[WeirwoodTreeHugger]

Maia does the colorful costume without getting tacky right. I'm so glad she didn't get a new dress.

 

[WeakAnkles]

Oh Bravo WePo. Small twizzle bobble, but they have such a natural feel for Latin and that's easily the best SD they've done all season.

 

[firal]

Good job W/P!! Love the program except for the twizzles...

 

[casken]

Iffy from him on the twizzles, conservative on the Rhumba.

Love the partial step sequence. Very elegant.

Amazing PSt, AMAZING

Morozov looks so grossed out to be kissing an old woman like Kaitlyn as she gets off the ice.

I don't like this program at all.
Kaitlyn and Andrew are such nice people, but this program just. Doesn't hit at all.
It's a total slog through and those costumes are tacky.

I agree with all of this except the line about the costumes

It’s black and blue, not white and gold!

At first I thought it was forest green. Now I can see the black and blue. Wait a minute.
Now I see the white and gold.
What is happening!?!?

Wait, how are the shibs and chock/bates with their world medals lower in the WR than Hubbell/Donahue?

Weaver / Poje

Much, much better costumes. Interesting to put the partial step first with a nice series of steps with very complex holds (Level 3). Fairly good edging through the rhumba step (Level 4). A bit slow through the twizzles for them (Level 3) but at least Poje didn't stumble on them. Good edging through the midline step (Level 3). And a great flip-over in the spread eagle curve lift.

The transitional work is much improved over the other teams. Very easy between the elements and the holds. They could have a little bit more speed but I like how the program built over time. A very strong performance for them.

 

[SarahSynchro]

74+ !!!! :eeking:
