Elena Ilinykh & Ruslan Zhiganshin

I like that SD already, but I hope we'll get to see another camera angle. The crowd started clapping along, Ruslan looks great, I didn't hope for more at this point in time. :)
 
The better camera angle makes me smile from the start. (That normally only happens when I watch Klimova/Ponomarenko's 1988 FD)
I guess this is a very good sign. They're really sweet together.
 
God I just love these two :love:

Their coach that is moving around to the steps the whole time is just pure love :points:

Didn't know how I'd feel about this program but of course they found a way to sell me on it. I predict they bring smiles to my face for yet another season :)
 
I love the new version - you can see how much they are enjoying skating it and I can even see them singing along!

:laugh: They are supercute. They just make me smile and they obviously enjoy skating together. I hope their FD will also be uploaded by the same person tomorrow.

I'm liking it more and more, there is SO MUCH more nuance than last season, Ruslan has improved yet again (I love how he uses his arms at the start) and I can't wait to see it when they are fully competition ready.

But stop singing guys! Save your breath for the end...;):cheer2:

Love this view! Such detail in the program!

Ruslan is all over this!!!! Ok, seeing how much they are enjoying themselves is really helping me loving the program :) Getting there, getting there!
 
Haven't written here quite a long time. I missed these two so much in the off-season. I was really impatient to see this SD and I absolutely love it! This can be among the most memorable SDs of the season, really original and full of joy! I was also surprised that it is Ruslan who is selling the program this much!

I hope we are going to see the same type of performance and unique program for Frida tomorrow.
 
I know their outfits were only training clothes, but I hope Elena is keeping her headband. It`s just so :drama:
 
I loved it and I think it will get even better.

I find it amazing that there are people who are comparing this SD to Carmen, because they seem to forget that we first saw Carmen in November, and now we get to see this in September.

And it`s a completely different rhythm. Carmen was great, but they need to move on and push themselves and IMO their new SD is doing that. I especially like how much people finally see what an amazing dancer Ruslan is. :)
 
I find it amazing what people choose to critique them about. They say Lena is wooden because Ruslan is more charismatic in this dance? So last year the problem was she was too dominant in Carmen? The song is being sung by Freddie Mercury, did they expect HER to take the lead? Tickled pink to see Bobrova, Monko and Stepanova watching them throughout their entire dance. Ruslena, you have arrived !!!!

I love it. Stepanova has Lena envy.
