2024-25 Senior Grand Prix Final Pairs Short Program

I think that of all the 10 million Roxane’s we have seen, this is of the very few that captures the crazy overblown intensity of the film—so there

i think V/M was better but hey. YMMV

When it is skated that well I really don't mind. Wow, wonderful!

Wasn't it just!

These two have come on so much the past couple years.

Who would have imagined a few years ago that they would now be in the GP Final?

This arty camerawork is making Danny & Ellie look less synchronized than they are. Curious

Comparing this to other "Rain in Your Black Eyes" programs, I think there only a few dozen ones that are better.

This program is sooooooooo good! All of the transitional content is just incredible, and it's combined with gorgeous skating skills and presentation. A lot of pairs' teams programs feel glaringly empty, but it's not so for these two. This team gets such high marks because of the quality of their elements, and also because this program is so difficult and done so well. Even things like the SBS spins, even though they were out-of-sync and far apart, were some of the fastest that we'll see today, and that final life is such a "wow" moment with that difficult entry and exit and how easy Danny makes it look.

 

[LazyFuzai]

Average as well.The spin was fun when she turns 2 times to his one

 

[EdgeCall]

Good drive! But they can't afford those mistakes here.

Today, all I can get is Snow in my green eyes

Sui & Han’s rules—and probably always will for the pairs, I think

At the end of the spin she gave him scared look. Like what are you doing? Stay synchronized?

This team continues to get more steady. There is still room for improvement on the spins and one throw. I no longer hold my breath as deeply during the difficult moves. Again, a warhorse done well and inspired connecting steps. Very nice job Ellie & Danny.

 

[CellarDweller]

Not bad, but the mistakes will cost them.

[Arriba627]

Darn. My prayer for the throw didn't work. Sigh. The trademark Danny grin is still there. Danny is such a great pairs boy.

 

[CellarDweller]

Oh my.....I forgot about the "Olivia Newton-John jazzercise outfits". LOL

 

[jgg220]

I had the Georgian woman's outfit back in the days when I used my Sweatin' to the Oldies VHS collection every day. Now I am just a sweatin' oldie.

[Karoltyna]

No, I just don't like them. I see how skilled they are, just can't appreciate it

 

[Lamente Ariane]

My heart says no but my feet say yes

This is one of those programs that I personally don't love, but I can't fault them for anything in it - they carry good flow throughout the program and perform the whole time, even if it's not my cup of tea. Their unison is really impressive, especially on the SBS jumps, and they carry great speed throughout the program, although the step sequence looked quite slow and hesitant here compared to previous outings of the program.
