2022 U.S. Nationals: Senior Free Dance

[CoyoteChris]

Is anyone here old enough to remeber "Duck and Cover?" He was a cartoon turtle who coached children about what to do it they saw the flash of nuclear bombs exploding in the distance. His advice was, hide under your desk. He also gave out the useful information of how many secods you had from the time you saw a flash of light to the time when the barrage of radioactive particles hit.

I am! We practiced it! Duck and cover and kiss your mule goodbye.

Almost time!

Peacock stream on for dance, groups 2 and 3. Now introducing judges and panel.

Thanks, I was on the stream were they were interviewing Chock and Bates

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Ok, excited!

 

[demarinis5]

Unfortunately I won’t be able to watch but wanted to stop by and send cheers to Maddie and Evan, you got this!

Thanks, Ben, for describing why level 4 stsq can be elusive.

Ugh....the movie version

 

[LadyB]

I was gonna go to bed, but while I'm still here (it's 1.32 am in my world), I might as well wait for the dance showdown!

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Lorraine is such a dramatic performer, I am surprised and impressed she's going for a bit of subtlety with a Poto progr

oh no wait, there's the Lorraine I love

 

[Lamente Ariane]

This music cut is not it, and I say this as someone who has seen Phantom more than I’d like to admit lol.

 

[moonvine]

And after a big struggle, I get Ben. Yay!

 

[Seven Sisters]

Lorraine really skating her heart out here and her partner, well he truly has improved since he started skating with her

 

[ruffledgrouse]

I don't think the choreo made the most of the music. A few crescendos in there I felt like they skated through

When I first saw them I was like "Welp what a downward change for Lorraine", but now while I still miss Quinn he has improved so much

Hah, I was a bit too mean when describing him to my mother and she’s now 100% on their side

 

[moonvine]

I'm so nervous.

Yep, music cut wasn't great on top of using the movie vocals.

Don't give up on him yet. Remember when Maddie and Evan started skating together? The Vixen and the Goober? And look at them now

 

[yelyoh]

Not bad at all and they skated as though they were going for a Tony.

This team has grown on me.
