Chock/Bates: What makes the tango romantica difficult is the tempo. It was the hardest element to incorporate without feeling like we are behind everything. It exposes you in a way where you can tell the top teams apart. #4CC2019 #4ContsFigure
Hubbell/Donohue: This has been one of the most challenging dances since the keypoints were introduced. If you miss one step, you can miss a whole keypoint, which makes it more challenging. It's challenging to do sharp moves while maintaining your edging
Weaver/Poje: What is the saving grace of the tango is the way it looks. It's worth the time we put in because it's so beautiful. It's a labor of love.

I think "yummy" is OK if it's Andrew Poje or Nikolaj Sorenson.
