Short Dance 5:30 PM EST

It is really interesting seeing the ice dancers tackle Latin rhythms on the ice since I was born dancing to salsa, guaguanco, merengue, rumba, cumbia and the rest. If I tried moving like I do on the floor on the ice, there would be blood everywhere lols.

Anna NAGORNYUK / Viktor KOVALENKO
Ugh I hate the music that they ended with.

It's like someone saw Sale/Pelletier's "Love Story" and said "That needs a Latin beat. And vocals. And vampires."

Morosov not only used V/M's music this season, he does it for two of his teams? Dude's shameless.

Wow, SO CLASSY. lol. Didn't realize that was also a Morozov team.

I do not think you can but I am probably wrong.

I liked this couple from Uzbekhistan! One of those nice little surprises you get from watching whole comps. Too bad he fell out of a twizzle but they skated close and had good unison, I thought. I even liked their wild flamingo costumes.

Hip Hip Chin Chin was famously used by ballroom competition team Max Kozhevnikov & Yulia Zagoruychenko for a samba. That's where they all got it from. Long before V/M used it, lesser ballroom teams were already using it.

Lol if I hadn't seen their names on screen, I would have thought that the mexican team was Tessa and Scott from their outfits.

 

[sweetskates1]

I LOVE the song the Mexicans are ice dancing to now... so cool..

 

[Violet Bliss]

It works. Thanks!

????? It should and has worked for everybody. Plein ecran means full screen. No in between option. I find today's video quality poorer, narrower screen and fuzzier picture when enlarged.

Ooops. I answered you too quickly. You must have edited your post. Anyways, happy for you.

I recognize it's very famous (love Yulia). I just think it's tacky to use it for two teams (and it's Morosov, so I couldn't resist a dig). And since Morosov used not one but two of V/M's pieces, I don't feel as petty as I probably should.

 

[sweetskates1]

Lol apparently Tessa Virtue changed her dress to a very pink flowery concoction. It looks cool.

Lol if I hadn't seen their names on screen, I would have thought that the mexican team was Tessa and Scott from their outfits.

Bruhns & Van Natten
Mexico

Rhumba music
Not a good first pattern, from a key point standpoint
into the lift, she's a plank over his knee, but with one leg wrapped around his leg
(I like this lift)
Music is a good fit for this
second pattern
seemed a little better

jump into twizzles, sort of done, they don't step or into it in unison.

circular step

35.93

Next 4 teams warming up.
