2025-2026 Junior Grand Prix Final Rhythm Dance

[auser]

Ambre PERRIER GIANESINI / Samuel BLANC KLAPERMAN look like a promising team. Another worm! Fun to watch.

Interesting I've never heard a song been sped up in ice dance.

Also, I'm slightly disappointed that this was such a coherent program form the French! I expect more crazy for them.

Also love the drum guys!

Well Hana & Daniil are already in character...on the intro

Quite the entrance from Hana Maria.

OK, now I know who I want to finish in last position! Hana Maria ABOIAN / Daniil VESELUKHIN (USA).

That entry was too much.

Boys, but I am coming across as a grumpy old man this morning!

The jump entry in the twizzles is more difficult than these teams make it look, but when they overcook it things can go all wrong.

Congrats to Layla VEILLON / Alexander BRANDYS for Rhumba level 4 and Quickstep 3. Too bad about twizzles mishap.

Wow, are you a Grinch trying to ruin our skating holiday cheer? I fear you may be completely missing the point of ice dance if you're that frustrated by that bit of theatricality...

 

[labgoat]

That was a very interesting program and the choreography was quite hard. I look forward to better skated from them as they really are quite good.

Hey guys do you think Backstreet is back?

 

[labgoat]

Now my UKR kids - I love their energy and power and strong presence.

 

[labgoat]

Hey guys do you think Backstreet is back?

[auser]

Hey guys do you think Backstreet is back?

And back and back.

 

[skatingguy]

Problems with the lift.

I've just spent 3 days re-installing everything on the desktop, and not getting to bed until very late because of making mistakes and having to stay up to keep to the schedule for the next day.

Lack of sleep is really starting to catch up with me.

And I've a really sore neck because of having to use the laptop to do things on while the desktop is out of action.

As I have made perfectly clear since they were introduced last season, I hate these walk-ins. Totally unnecessary, and potentially hazardous to the skaters. I much preferred the line-up in the middle of the ice.

Plus, I'm not one for theatricals at the best of times. It is perfectly possible to do a good programme without going over the top. And that was seriously going over the top.

Now to see if their programme is like that too. I hope not, but I fear it will be.

Aww Artem is so tough on himself - you did fine

 

[4everchan]

Well this final is not going well for Canadian skaters. Maybe I should just go to bed and sleep through the rest of everything

 

[labgoat]

I'm mostly tired of Vogue - but this one does work better because they really are emphasizing strong skating skills and this was more fun. Good work by coaches Gregory & Petukhov.
