Kunitsas told media that they are at the crossroads of two roads. There are personal moments that need to be worked out before going to a competition.
That is really too bad as I think they have/had a shot at a medal at Nationals given some of the other teams injuries

They should stop doing themes... makes watching soo repetitive
They’ve already gotten rid of the pattern thing - I think the themes can be great if done well. Operative word here being IF

I don’t think anyone knows what to do with the rhythm dance theme - let alone the ISU
Ted asked Mark. Mark was unconvincing. Grishin seemed okay so long as it is not 28 vienese walltzes in a row.

I dont know, I dont like it at all. Its so limiting. It blocks every RD into a box so if anyone isnt a fan of the theme then half the entire ID discipline is ruined for them. I just dont get it. FD is always better for this reason.

Mr. Music Cuts at team Plushenko needs to be FIRED!!! What was that random change in the beginning??
Actually though. There have been times where people complain about the music cuts of a skater and I can barely notice. But some of the cuts over the past couple of days have been absolutely terrible.

Interesting program, but I don't like the red strips on her back. Sorry, but they look like blood streaks. 😐

Sorry brother, Adeliia popped the quads despite hitting them in warmup... I guess she was lying about not being nervous.

Akateva stole the show though. Gorgeous. Wont say more, you'll enjoy.
Wow I would not predict Adleia popping quads. That sounds great about Akatieva a new program that sounds like it made an impression.

I guess Amber Glenn is suddenly best in the world if Adelia has no quads, this is really strange to say she is currently best in the world but I admire Amber.

Some drama with Kunitsa and his wife is interesting as well.

Nothing brings drama like Russian skating, even if there's been a decline and Russia is not the best in the world I'm sure this will change as the season progresses. I think Adelia re-establishes herself as best in the world by 30 points by the end of the season (excluding other Russian skaters if Akatieva brings back her ultra-c she is a contender for best in the world.

But that is the point of dancing

Everyone is doing the same thing = easy to compare.

The problem is that themes used to be "tango", "waltz", etc/

Nowadays nobody including dancers don't know what is it. And everyone is skating to Presley's "Fever". :palmf:

Yea, thats the video I was talking about. Bro is on the verge of tears. So confused with what happened?? Must be outside of skating...
Kostornaia would be difficult to live with. She seems very selfish. Look, another season of 'Angel' it is all about her and her vanity.

I can remember last year she being very dismissive of him in the kiss and cry. Almost insulting.

Sorry I'm just not a huge Khudaiberdyeva fan but the music is finally what I expect for ID at least
