[elektra blue]

And I have a secret dream, where a czech figure skating lady (or any other lady) will skate to Threee Wishes for Cinderella:

on of my favorite childhood movies. They show it on TV every Christmas here, so popular. I would be here for it!

Use the retrans from 1tv.ru:

If the audience can listen to the same 2 french ballads every season although they do not understand a word and can listen to US 80s rock music on ice, they can listen to Russian pop music.

100pc!!!!

Yes, it's the ultimate christmas classic. And the music would be fitting for skating perfectly, IMO, not just this main motive. So, Danny G, where are you when I need you

Berestovakaya was 'Zolushka', almost for real ...

So tomorrow it will be between Berestovskaya and Muravyova for the premier rank.

Berestovskaya 'chucking' her quad must not fall and repeat her good TES score, or she might well loose to Muravyova who has the components. And Sof'ya got her Level 4 steps sequence !

So, I've rewatched Liza Berestovskaya's skate and I can confirm Edwin's words, her smile is like a sun and she's so happy when she skates well. Thumbs up for you, girl.

I am surprised Sofia got only one bonus point, I thought she might get one on the FCSp

Ice dance:



Though I'll have to leave you after the first group I guess, will be on my way home.

and Evgeny Semenenko's SP (whatever that was, something like Man From No City).

The song is Город, которого нет (The City That Isn't There). It's the main theme song of some russian TV-series from 2000s - Бандитский Петербург (Bandit Petersburg)

Thanks! I only vaguely remembered that the title had something to do with the existential status of a city
Some fun names coming up, including the cute kids who stole my heart at the last stage Anna and Gleb...

Три орешка для Золушки was shown often on soviet/russian TV when i was a child in 1980-90s I like the idea of skaters using songs in their native languages more often.

why are there teams/skater outside competition?

 

[LadyB]

So looking forward to this!!! A few of them wee ones from last time starting here as well!

 

[LadyB]

why are there teams/skater outside competition?

To get an outing under their belt?

To get an outing under their belt?

but do they get a score? and does it count internationally? or in their coutries of representation? these two i. e. represent Israel

Don’t think so. Probably just to get competition practice as there’s a lot less going on than usual.

In boys SP there was also a boy who skated first without a score.

I remember occasions when well known skaters skated out of comp in youth events before their ‘real’ season started especially when they recovered from injury.
