Black lace dress with crinolines. Very Spanish. Maia's working the arrogant attitude thing. Alex in black pants with a white shirt with black thin trim along side the closing. Nice crossrolls. Crisp.

Black modified bullfighter outfit with red cummerbund. Black top with red skirt.- top is rather underwear like. Shallow edges, and they were tight. Not a good dance.

black long sleeved outfit with a red undershirt. She's in black lace with a red underskirt that bunches rather unattractively between her legs. All in all, not a bad performance, though. pretty good speed and edges.

5th at Sheffield JGP, 6th at Madrid JGP
2nd at Midwesterns: 2 (141.09)
She's a burnt orange cape- she has a large piece of fabric flapping around on her arm. Otherwise the dress looks like an mideastern belly dance outfit somehow. He's a matador.

8 Shannon Wingle / Timothy McKernan
Arctic FSC / Broadmoor SC
7th at Czech JGP
First at Midwestern sectionals: 1 (142.53)
Very ungainly finishing pose. And not at all crisp. He's wearing a v neck black jump suit and she has a huge floral pattern (like a bad rug) on the top with the usually black lace skirt.

He has the oddest matador's jacket I have seen yet. It has 4 large sunflowers on it, on each shoulder, front and back. The jacket itself is some kind of gold brocade thing. Madison's dress is lovely - red again though
Good speed and deep edges

He has a very ornate Matador's outfit. She has a dreadful red lace dress with what appears to be an anatomical drawing of her stomach & esophagus on it in illusion fabric.
Unison slightly off, leglines not quite matching.

Broadmoor SC / Broadmoor SC
2nd at JGP South Africa; 1st at Czech JGP
Best score at Czech JGP (159.30)
They qualified for the JGPF but were injured and so did not compete there.
She has a large red heart shaped top of her dress with faux straps of the shoulder and a very short flamenco skirt.
I found the extra movements they put in the dance rather awkward, particular a high knee step she was doing. I would not have scored this dance as high as the judges did.

Center Ice & Blades of Western Pennsylvania / All Year FSC

Black lace over very gold material. He's in a matador outfit with a very gold cummerband. The dress does not flatter her. There was nothing either very bad or good about this dance.
