3. Sara-Maude DUPUIS CAN
SP: "Ray of Light" by Madonna, choreo by David Wilson

3T+3T
2A
LSp3 (nearly loses the spin on the haircutter)
3Lz (holds on)
FCSp3
StSq3
CCoSp4

SP: 60.41 (2nd)

I love the energy Sara-Maude had out on the ice tonight; she seemed ready and happy to be there. This program is really cheeky and fun. I wonder if it's a nod to the film Ice Princess, in which the protagonist skated to this music with a similar hairstyle and dress. The lutz was a little tight and there were some silly spin issues but overall Sara-Maude should be proud of this skate.

I love the Ray of Light Madonna era so kudos to Sara-Maude for choosing it. And it's not a cover! I thought she had great energy and played well to the home crowd.

 

[LazyFuzai]

She had her fun for sure

 

[FlossieH]

Really nice from SMD. That programme suits her.

 

[auser]

All green and fun energy from Sara-Maude.

Great job for Sara-Maude

She almost had too much fun and energy... sometimes, I feared she would slip... but happy she didn't... a few level 3 spins that will be costly.

 

[Seven Sisters]

Sarah-Maude getting all Amber Glenn on us, and I’m here for it. Nice job, kid

 

[CellarDweller]

Oh she was fun to watch!

 

[Jeanie19]

Sara-Maude. Pretty dress. Energetic program and skate. All greens.

 

[triplelutzzzzz]

[momrk]

That was most enjoyable

WOW!!! mind blowing!! Sara- Maude was great , she managed the music rhythm perfectly, technically was great and expressed great the theme , was great!!!

 

[yuumagical]

Why has nobody used this song for the rhythm dance yet???

 

[labgoat]

Very dancey choregraphy for her. Good execution. Her looks reminds me a bit of a young Natalia Mishkutionok and Emily Hughes personality wise - a more modern choice of music. Clever and interesting program.

Do not start LOL

 

[labgoat]

Why has nobody used this song for the rhythm dance yet???

maybe not the right tempo for the elements?

 

[CellarDweller]

Why has nobody used this song for the rhythm dance yet???

because it's not from the 80s or 90s. RD needs to expand their themes. LOL

(coming back, I was wrong, Ray of Light came out in 1998. I thought it was 2000)
