Classy athletes, they will succeed.

Ok, apparently I/Z changed the rotational lift in their combi lift. They showed the new lift in a Match TV interview.

I like the changes.

Glad to have strong competition in Moscow. Their task is always the same; to show clean & well skated programs, demonstrate the work that has been done over the summer and that they have been making progress. .

Good. It's time to produce because I'm fed up with nuts at work and in forums. So they better bring me some good news tomorrow.

I am fed up with the Lena vs. Nikita articles getting punched out like wildfire today.

Looks like a good change, I hope they get good levels for it because the change in position is so quick! I hope they think it's 'defined' enough. Although I guess some of the other couples have even faster changing positions in lifts, so..

Me too, believe me. It`s been over a year, when will people finally move on from this drama? I have no idea what is going to happen tomorrow, but if S/K beat I/Z, it`s not going to be the end of the world. Ice Dance isn`t what it once was, any team can win at any time. This also means that even teams that struggle for a season, will get a second chance.

The only good thing about having to deal with nuts at work is that you do not have time to read all the bull about Vikita vs Ruslena articles. What a SNOOZE these things have become. I'm sooooo BORED!

All gossipers and telenovela lovers love these things. It's muddy and sooooooooo idiotically schmaltzy.

I just want clean skates from Ruslena.

 

[Marta25]

The crazy thing is that both teams aren`t as obsessed with each other as the media. I think they only focus on improving and become as good as they can. I/Z proved last season that they can beat them, losing to them here won`t mean they will never beat them again.

 

[bramweld]

Yes. I like them period.

 

[Marta25]

Well, going back to the new lift, I think it`s easier for Ruslan now to rotate faster, which should mean improved GOE.

People let the skating begin. I'm off to my bed after work. Wake me up when the real stuff begins.

Thank you.

I like it much more. The exit is so pertinent with the story and the choreo also. Good job.
