Liza has changed her FS music. It's not the one she was working on with Averbukh in Channel One's video. The style was very unusual for her. It was very lyrical.
3A+2T, 1A, 3Lz tano (I think +3T planned), 3F, 2A+1Eu+2S, 3Lz, 3Lo
The order of non-jumping elements was also a bit different from her previous free skates. Spins are solid for early September.

I love Maria de Buenos Aires. It's gonna be a dance season right up my street!

Btw, @AlexBreeze: Did you also see juniors in SPB yesterday? I'd be interested in the new (old?) programs of Soloviov and Loginov. Any idea how they are doing?

Soloviov had very confident jumps in both warm-up and the skate itself. I think he even overrotated 3A at the warm-up. He kept his old SP.

Honestly, I don't remember Loginov's music, but it was something popular in FS. His jumps were worse, he popped Axel in the skate.

I really like tango for Kolya Ugozhaev. It's unexpected, but very good. His 4T still isn't here (including warm-up), but everything else was good.
4T<< scary fall, 3A+2T, 3Lo, 3S, 3F, 3Lz+3T, 3F+1A
The content is different from Junior Test Skates.

Anna and Egor, well done. Really nice performance.

Oops watching the couple after Anna S and Egor

Vladislav M is a fashionable fellow which is my take away from this

 

[AlexBreeze]

Very good shape for early September. Definitely in the top 3 of the junior boys today.

Vlad Dikidzhi was much better than at the Junior Test Skates. He did his usual content cleanly except for 3Lz+2T (3Lz+3T was planned, but the lutz was bad). The program needs a lot of work, imo.
The warm-up was very confident too.

 

[LadyB]

Well done, Goncharov boys and their Annas! Looking forward to a season enjoying them!

 

[LadyB]

My lovely pairs, right in time for the end of my working day. Very sensible

training the 4lz has really messed up his 3lz hasnt it. I honestly dont even know if its worth it at this point

 

[LadyB]

Cheremnikh/Butenko must be doing something right when I love them despite La Strada

 

[LadyB]

Daniil Venediktov rocks a mega version of the Yablokov hair
Although the latter has cut down on volume recently.

And Addams Family

 

[Mariiiiskate]

I like Daniil and Varvara a lot I still remember her being so small and new to pairs during the 20-21 season she has grown a lot since then so has Daniil, they have outgrown this program tho I hoped they would give them a new one but oh well.

They are going to get screwed with the new eligibility rules as he ages out if juniors while she has to wait till 26-27 until she is a senior.

 

[LadyB]

Chernyshova/Antonyshev - loved it at test skates and loving it now. Just hope the costumes will turn green at some point.

Ah, on closer inspection, there is some green going on already. Just don't like the dominant black with Irish music.

 

[LadyB]

Didn't know that Martin Breslavsky became a pair skater - interesting!

 

[LadyB]

Davai, Sofia and Nikita!!!

 

[LadyB]

Oh no, death spiral disaster in the end! Not my favourite version of 'Sing, Sing, Sing', but I love these two anyway.

Davai, Mila and Pavel!

 

[LadyB]

That was not half bad, I love the music for them.

Ever the funny man, our 'Andrew Mirren' - bless!
