[CrazyKittenLady]

I quite like the costumes

This is a call for sport psychologists to study about: "Mindfulness interventions for world-class figure skaters to cope with anxiety during olympic season."

 

[Ichatdelune]

Honestly? Last year's version was better, the costumes, the energy, the lift entrance (I know it couldn't happen because of the requirements but still).

 

[EdgeCall]

This is a good program for them though, no doubt about it!

It they refine the performance a little, yes. They do have the chemistry, they just need to put more of it on the ice.

 

[Kittosuni]

OK Im not happy that they change their last lift!!!

 

[readernick]

Still love this program. I don't think it has the same impact as it did last year.

I love Anastasia's dress, Alexandr's costume not so much (never mind, he is so good looking anyway, says shallow me).

 

[Apple1078]

Ugh, those costumes.....

But I love them. They are so solid and confident.. and so charming!!!

 

[anonymoose_au]

T/M...I heard they ditched the costume change... actually didn't they change the whole program?

I wasn't sold on Claire De Lune but imma scared!

 

[elektra blue]

speaking of costumes that have to go...

 

[LadyB]

Davai, Zhenya and Vovan!!!

 

[LadyB]

That's Vovan's old Ti Amo jumper,which means the costumes are not complete yet.

 

[anonymoose_au]

Oooo triple twist of gloriousness!

 

[Hyena]

Glancing down and then looking up when Zhenya is mid-twist is something else

 

[Lamente Ariane]

Wait, this is Philip Glass not W.E?

 

[anonymoose_au]

That's Vovan's old Ti Amo jumper,which means the costumes are not complete yet.

I miss Ti Amo...I loved that program. I worry about the Lighthouse one...

 

[anonymoose_au]

Eeee! They brought back that amazing spin entrance! Love it!

 

[Kittosuni]

Ok this has a potential olympic moment went skated lights out.

Just hate the length of Evgenia's dress

 

[elektra blue]

great! as usual they do their best on the home ice!

 

[katymay]

Well that was just a level above the rest, wasn't it. Well done.
