Wow, thanks. I saw N/M's program from a distance, but seeing it up close makes a huge difference. This is such beautiful, amazing ice dancing. Kudos once again to choreographer, Kaitlyn Weaver!😍

N/M were placed second in the FD behind Lauriault/Le Gac. I think that N/M should have won the FD, with Browns in second in the FD, Flo/Des 3rd in the FD, L/L 4th, and P/B 5th. In the RD: Browns first, N/M second, L/L third, Flo/Des 4th, P/B 5th. Overall standings, I think should be close between the Browns and N/M, but I would have Browns winning gold, N/M silver, Flo/Des bronze, Lauriault/ Le Gac in 4th, and Pate/Bye in 5th.

As it stands, L/L are viewed as status veterans, and P/B as having a bit of seniority over uber-talented N/M and Flo/Des. But hopefully, these younger teams will soon begin to receive scores deserving of their immense talent.

^^ They are fortunate to have found each other. Perfect matches where each partner complements the other and there exists a magical chemistry, is completely unpredictable. This team was good after only two weeks together when they were filmed in an outdoor exhibition number by OIP.

Kudos to Hana/Daniil and to their coaches, Melissa Gregory and Denis Petukhov. ✨

Thanks for sharing the clip with audio for the Mullens FD. They did better in the FD than the Peals and grabbed the bronze medal. Sad for the Peals since they had been 2nd in the RD. Their FD was a bit slow and they did not seem fully comfortable with it, so they dropped to 4th. Good comeback for the Mullens who were fourth in the RD.

Also, Wolf/ Tsar move up to second from third. Aboian/ Veselukhin were lovely and consistent in first place throughout.

music is wow theatrical
The same music was used by Savchenko/ Massot in their iconic, 2018 Olympic gold medal-winning FD: La Terre Vue du Ciel, by Armand Amar.
'Earth from above'

In addition, Aboian/ Veselukhin are using for their FD Pap/Ciz's iconic 2015 World gold medal-winning music: Mozart's Adagio from Concerto No. 23

WOW!!! They are great I seen and I don't know why I feels the vibes like Tessa Virtue & Scott Moir , absolutely right chemistry is the 50% of all the partnership and this team is just two weeks and the tailgate l results are on sight I seen them a bright season also is funny because one of the music they use on their FD is the same than ID weather forecast from television nacional de Chile AKA TV.

Actually, in the icedance.com LPIDI senior recap, it states that Nikolai Morosov choreographed N/M's FD. So, Kaitlyn Weaver must have done the choreo just for N/M's RD.

Nosiness has got the better of me.

A video of Marin and Daniel's Short has appeared on YouTube already:

Marin Hessel / Daniel Klaber - 2024 Lake Placid Championships SD

I think we can discount the son theory. Holly's former partner would be 30 now, and the guy in this video looks a similar age to that!

Here are some more videos for comparison:

Daniel Klaber - 2018 Midwestern Sectionals FS
Daniel Klaber - 2018 Midwestern Sectionals SP

Holly Moore / Daniel Klaber - 2014 Junior Nationals FD

Holly Moore / Daniel Klaber - 2014 ISU Junior Grand Prix Tallinn Cup FD
Holly Moore / Daniel Klaber - 2014 ISU Junior Grand Prix Tallinn Cup SD

I'm pretty sure that the guy doing Senior Singles in 2018 representing the Shaker club is the same guy that was doing Junior Ice Dance in 2014 representing the Detroit club. But, I am not sure if he is the same guy that is doing Senior Ice Dance this week representing the Cleveland Heights club. When I first watched the videos, I said "no, it isn't". But, you don't really get a clear enough or close enough view of his face in the new video. So, I'm not confident in that judgement.

The video links are here, so I'm opening it up to others to judge.

That is the very same Daniel Klaber. We are from Cleveland and were at Lake Placid for solo dance.
