Mariah Bell

I don't think Rohene choreographs all of Mariah's programs - Cindy Stuart has done her short programs for the past couple years (might also have done her LP the year before last).
 
That is true but, Rohene made a comment... in the comments that seems to indicate he is the choreographer.
 
Looks like it is this

Of more interest to me is that it has lyrics and Rohene is very against lyrics. I wonder if that means this is a exhibition program... or if Rohene has become more flexible.

I think Rohene must have had a change of heart. Those moves are timed to the music, and the lyrics.

Although Cindy Stuart has done good work for Mariah in the past, as well as the comments, those moves also seem pure Rohene: face stroking, dipping moves (you can tell my technical prowess:biggrin:)

Life is tough; I am commenting on a ladies' program:shocked:;)
 
Well I am glad Rohene did not take those lyrics too seriously.

I am just happy that he may have caved... my dream of seeing Jason skate to Bohemian Rhapsody may still be alive....

I do kinda wish when skaters posted stuff like this that they would give a little more context... it is fine to be silent, but knowing if this is an EX, and SP or a free would be nice and i don't see much advantage to not saying which it is. Meh. Maybe they are still deciding.

I think Rohene quite honestly may have to adjust his position on lyrics over the next few years anyway as surely more and more skaters are going to at least occasionally want to do a competitive program with lyrics, so quite honestly, if he wants to continue to be a top choice for skaters he's probably going to have to get at least a little flexible on the whole thing and be willing to do a competitive program with lyrics at least every once in a long while.
 
Wow, two beautiful skates! I wonder if there is any possibility she'll get Skate America this year?

I think she made a very good case for herself with those skates. The short is so much fun and the long is mesmerising :luv17:
 
SA loves Mariah Bell. Invited her last year. Based on the invitation tread of this season and Mariah's strong first outing. she will very possibly get SA.
 
Really nice program... are any other ladies attempting a 3z+3t and a 3f+1/2lo+3S? I think this program has a pretty high start value.
Polina is, of course ;)
BTW, I really love this program and the fact that her jumps are finally a lot cleaner and her skating looks more polished overall. She definitely deserves that SA spot :thumbsup:

Actually Polina does a 3F+3T and a 3Lz+3T, she repeats the 3T. Mariah is repeating the lutz and the flip... which is worth more than two passes with the 3T on the end. Maria Sotskova has a very similar layout, but she was all i could find easily. Most ladies repeat flip/lutz and a loop, some do two 3Ts... not many try for two 3Zs and two 3Fs.
 
I love her programs. :love: And I'm pretty sure she's getting SA.

I will be so happy if she gets SA. Love both programs, especially the FS. The music, the costume, her! Only thing, some of her moves are so beautiful, I wish she'd hold them just a tad longer so we could enjoy them even more.

Are you talking about Polina T.? I think the previous poster was talking about Polina E., who definitely does do 3lz-3t and 3f-1lo-3s.

Back on topic, I adore her SP and I liked her FS when she did it Broadmoor, so hopefully I'll love that one, too, as soon as I watch the fan cam. I would be very pleased if she got SA, and I think the crowd would love her.

Hugh, i swore she used to do two 3Ts... im going to assume she upgraded and say good for her!

Still Mariah, should be proud of her layout and I hope she rocks it this season.
 
I just watched her Chicago SP and I love it!!!!!
Had a Jenny Kirk flashback and watched that again too. Love both programs. :D
As for her LP, I don't love it but it's not bad. The only part I didn't really care for was her brief catchfoot back spiral into 3Lz. It looked kinda abrupt and out of nowhere and just there only for the transition's sake.

Wish the best luck for her this season. And no more Zayak....
