ICE DANCE - Short Dance

[LaLola]

Liked the Brits, but somehow the ending looked like an accident. As if she missed his hand and fell down on the ice.

***! Reeds with Galit Chait, not Morozov?
I noticed that too. Does anybody know why?

maybe it is because he decided not to train non-Russian skaters?

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

This audience was quiet during Z/G's program. Wow. Granted, that program is the stuff of nightmares (both creepy and annoying, like a dummy), but this Moscow audience has been startlingly silent for non-Russian skaters the past few days.

 

[LaLola]

But she has alleviated her dress a little bit, hasn't she?

Just a guess that they didn't want to move to Russia to train when Morozov moved his training site there.

 

[Christina-Ballerina]

I think she has changed it since Europeans.

Regarding Diaz/Hurtado, since they skated on both the junior and senior levels this season, they had to split their training time between a Viennese Waltz and Golden Waltz, as well as other differences in requirements so I think that's the reason they were so awful.

awww I was hoping Sara and Adria could qualify for the free

Oh, I agree. They're planning to do it again next season, which is probably wise in terms of improving their skills, but they're probably exhausted with this hyper extended season. Two GP events, Euros, Junior Worlds, Senior Worlds, Qualifying rounds in three of them....

I adore their FD and it sucks we can't see it, though. That opening straight-line lift is a stunner.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Also, respect to the Hungarians for stepping in at the last moment, but no no no to that GW.

 

[aniela]

oh, no.... Matej fell

 

[LaLola]

I like Lucie's dress!

 

[L'amour]

Too bad about the falls

she looks a bit like Regina Spektor

 

[aniela]

Mysliveckova/Novak will not qualify

 

[SamuraiKike]

No crazy Karaoke Pop Mix/ Tribute to Anticapitalism FD tomorrow

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

And the North American onslaught begins.

And the North American onslaught begins.

I know! ::so nervous::

 

[skatingfan04]

Nice score for the Americans. 61 and change.

Lol this warm up group looks like the final flight of Canadian nationals.
