[Jammers]

Wow the Greens hit it out of the park. Shame they couldn't compete on the JGP they would have been contenders but they still have Junior worlds.

 

[Princessroja]

Wow, Greens into 1st by almost 5 points. Didn't see that coming. I thought Avonley and Vadym were a lock for 1st. Well, as a Greens fan I can't complain, although I don't think that was their sharpest performance.

 

[dorispulaski]

They are making ice.

 

[dorispulaski]

Browns are here!

 

[dorispulaski]

[oly2018]

Are the Udells a new team? I haven't seen them before, but they appear older.

Who knows how it will score, but I love it.


I have no idea who is that in the knc with them

35.81
27.53

63.34

Into 3rd!!

 

[Jammers]

Hopefully he grows a few more inches he's rather short for being 16. I thought he was about 14. LOL

 

[oly2018]

I think in a few years, the Browns will be a force in juniors. That's the best executed sibling tango I have seen so far.

 

[Princessroja]

Thrilled for the Browns! I was afraid they'd get buried, but looks like they've been working on their patterns.

 

[dorispulaski]

Jocelyn Haines (Buffalo SC, Inc.) and James Koszuta (Glacier Falls FSC, Inc.)
RD: Tango: "Sentimientos" by Andres Linetzky, Ernesto Romeo; Tango: "Sweet Dream" (Are Made of This) performed by Tanghetto; choreo by Carly Donowick, Joel Dear, Christian Erwin

Black again

Step has interedting choreo

Twizzles iffy


Pattern music violation for me. Come to think of it, the Australian kids at Asian Open got slammed for it as a Tango Romantica. It is not an Argentine either imo

Rotational lift. Sketchy exit.

31.11
24.56

54.67

Into 7th

 

[Mohacz]

I think there's not a single country with more sibling duos than in the US. American soil seems to be particularly favourable for brother-and-sister partnership. It's incredible that in the junior ice dance out of 13 couples 5 are formed by brothers and sisters

I was noticing that. 5 out of 13 is a TON of sibling couples!
