Ice Dance Prospects

And to complete this picture, C&P are now behind both H&Z and W&P. And half a point ahead of the Russians. Make of that what you will.

I thought they were okay. Low levels/invalid elements?

Is it me, or does the technical panel seem weird at this event?

I agree, the technical panel is very weird!!!

Don't know. Still it's only about one point difference between teams 3 to 6. Yes C&P was suppose to slighly run away with the bronze; it looks like they will have to do a solid FD now.
Interesting how close it is between D/W and P/B. Three points.

C/P did a workmanlike routine and the marks shows it. Have no idea of their levels, but they didn't fill out the arena as I thought they did at SC, at least towards the end. On a positive note, Vanessa has a superb dress (nightblue/silver) for a change, so I would like to see those constant wardrobe critics stop mumbling about her dresses!

P/B and D/W were superb and completely in a different category.

??? I thought they would be even closer. P/B made huge improvements this year and every time they step on the ice their marks go up. They were having such a huge pattern (aka speed) in their GW that i think Fabian graced the boards with his skate.

I wondered about his closeness to the boards too. Does anyone know if this is Olympic sized ice?

C/P must have had lost some levels somewhere, they have even lower TES than the russians who had visible bobbles, while the canadians didn't have any.

Gee.. I'm usually one of those costume critics... But help has come their way ! Thank you Costume fairy Godmother ! This was a lovely dress. They both looked good. Hope it's the beginning of a new trend.

I've always been a little leery of this dance for them..it doesn't have a very waltz-like feel, no matter how the meter breaks down , but whether or not that counted for anything with the panel, who knows ?

 

[missysays]

I don't think C/P got dinged for the lack of waltz-like feel in their program. Their PCS alone would have put them in third. But they got smacked down big time in the TES- wonder where the mistakes were??

Guess we'll have to wait for the protocols to come out.
