2021 Denis Ten Memorial: Rhythm Dance

[elektra blue]

um, that is an awfully high score?

as usual with these two, they're good of course, but i think other teams are even better, like Khudaiberdieva/Bazin that are about to skate

 

[litenkyckling]

Yeah they just looked a bit sloppy in the upper half of the body. One of those teams where I understand that they're very good technically but they just don't have it for me and I don't think they're a great match

i can condone that yellow only to a The Mask program

I was expecting that too. The costumes did not say "Uptown Funk" or "Bad To The Bone" to me.

That said, I loved her costume!

Skating was good!

i almost didn't recognize Aleshin without whips and chains

Now, now!

Mind you, Skoptcova did have a sort of a chain hanging over her skirt...

maybe for EX.

Omg, after a quick search in the forum here I found out that Surya Bonaly actually skated to Spice up your life in a EX

Lanaghan and Razgulajevs are doing a Spice Girls RD this year but imo it's not the best - Carol could've done better with the choreo and music selection
(think its on the Skate Canada dailymotion if anyone is looking)

Omg, I must check that out. Thanks!

I'm having to pause and go away to do things between skaters, so I'm running a few minutes behind.



How did you guess...?

Sorry guys, but that style of music and fashion isn't my thing.



Now you're talking!

And now you've started me thinking about what Spice Girls songs I would like to see skated to...

A mix with Spice Girl songs would be nice also!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Right, I want to chat to you guys, so I've skipped the Warm-Up.

Some cool movements in the second half. Outfit a bit meh?

 

[elektra blue]

i think i have a problem with this style

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

"Rock Your Body" does not work slowed down. And that remix of Justin's version of "Cry Me A River" was just weird.

And the less said about the costumes the better.

No. As you may have guessed, I didn't enjoy that.

Sorry Lou and Noe.

I know. That is my universal reaction to Alexandra appearing.

i don't understand the gloves

 

[Jontor]

Picaboo!

Just exercising my posting skills before the Women...

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Uuhm slowed down version of hit the road jack? That is just weird!

 

[elektra blue]

cool CuLi!

 

[litenkyckling]

cool CuLi!

imo they have the most innovative lifts in the game

Uuhm slowed down version of hit the road jack? That is just weird!

that is just NO

 

[norwegianfairytale]

Love her dress. The dress would have worked well with Spice Girls also

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I take back what I said about "Rock Your Body". It was great compared to this slowed down version of "Hit The Road Jack".

I wouldn't want to come back no more if it meant hearing that!

That was so depressing.

The other version that followed was a bit better. But not much.

Here's a much better version:

Big Fisch - "Hit The Road Jack"

F/G's RD makes me sad everytime because SUCH a missed opportunity - imagine how good and expensive looking Lilah's union jack dress could have been!!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

These look like fun costumes.

But, I'm going to have to pause for a minute or two first.
