seeing twists on the ground is scary... and they do this on the ice...

i think it's easy to take that element for granted but that's the scariest thing ever....

at Canadian nationals, i was with a friend who was freaking out about lifts, twists and throws... and i told her.. imagine, Deanna is getting thrown all over the place at 41.... and she wasn't a pair skater to begin with.. so she started getting thrown in her thirties...

crazy stuff... so my friend was like, yeah no... nobody would twist me lol

We've got an ice cut after this no?

Bruno Marcotte ... From Laval to Wichita... such a jetsetter

 

[readernick]

This music is overused but also beautiful. Probably good for a new pair team.

This was such a strong program for Audrey and Balazs - she's been skating pairs for less than a year, and is already this good. They started doing the 3Tw extremely recently, so I think they opted for the safer 2Tw here to preserve stamina and cleanliness. They have gelled so quickly, and have such good musicality. Their twist is only going to get better, as Balazs really excels at that element, and Audrey is so comfortable in the throws, a lot of singles skaters turn them into jumps but she gets such height and they are really a proper throw. I cannot wait to see this team next season, I think the sky is the limit for these two.

I like Shin/Nagy. They will be very good with more mileage... only the twist is really an issue at this point. The rest is already strong

 

[Dawn825]

Very pretty and very promising!!

 

[labgoat]

What a debut! Excellent job

 

[GGFan]

I am seriously impressed. To be this good this early is crazy. I hope they are extremely proud of themselves. Please stay together!!!!

 

[readernick]

Good program for such a new team. Essentially no performance required or given, but some nice qualities and much cleaner than previous teams. They both have good basics.

I think Balazs finally found the partner he was meant to have

Lovely seeing Audrey here. So happy she found a good partner in Balazs.

Love the colors for Audrey & Balasz

i'd put him in another colour of pants though... it's clashing.. .i love her dress and his shirt.

 

[Seven Sisters]

That was rougher than I expected, I’ve seen a lot of hype about them.

They are new together, of course

I like Shin/Nagy. They will be very good with more mileage... only the twist is really an issue at this point. The rest is already strong

And they did a triple in the SP, so it's coming along.

 

[momrk]

Such a new team still - they have really accomplished a lot. Looking forward to next season

 

[4everchan]

I think Balazs finally found the partner he was meant to have

yes... we are getting along fine
