Virtual Program and Preview Free Dance, Sunday, Oct 31, 12:15 EST

Lot of work to do, tehy allways improve over the seans...better costumes...but this is a great program.
 
Vanessa Crone and Paul Poirier CAN (ISU Ranked 9th)
Coach: Carol Lane, Juris Razguliaevs, Jon Lane
Choreographer: Christopher Dean
FD Eleanor Rigby by Lennon and McCartney, performed by Joshua Bell
Crone and Poirier have not competed the FD this summer. Although Eleanor Rigby is not the workhorse that, say Carmen, is, it has been used in good programs in the past. Dean did a program to Eleanor Rigby for the Duchesnays in 1988/1989. Also Davis and White used Eleanor Rigby for the 2007/2008 season. I wonder how this program will compare, especially to the Duchesnays' program.
Short Dance Results.

something wrong with my feed
rotational lift
I'm going with something wrong with my feed

I think it was better than what I was seeing on the computer.
cool ending though
 
Love me some Christopher Dean choreo!

That was great, loved the program. C/P will be placing top 5 at worlds in no time.

She needs to improve more. Paul is too, too fabulous. She needs to catch up.
 
Yeah, doris, we generally agree about C/P, and I was really impressed. Also the outfits were surprisingly detailed for practice outfits, I thought.
 
Vanessa and Paul were brilliant! I am really impressed with them at this competition! I took notice of them at 2010 Worlds, but this event has made me fall in love with them! :love:
 
Chock/Zuerlein - LOVE this program; I also like it is very different than SD; he needs to watch his posture, but really like the presentation with some good technical execution; almost forget to look at those great edges on the footwork, cool lifts etc since you look at the presentation.
 
Sinead and John are giving this title to Vanessa and Paul . . . it's really too bad for them. :cry:
 
Sinead Kerr and John Kerr GBR (ISU Ranked 3rd)
Coach: Evgeni Platov
Choreographer: Evgeni Platov, Robert Royston
FD Exogenesis: Symphony Pt 3 Redemption by Muse
The Kerrs have not competed their FD this summer. However, this is the third season that they have used a program by Muse in a row. Perhaps third time will be the charm.
Short Dance Results

problems with a lift dismount :eek:
this is their best ever, but I don't know
how it should be scored
rotational lift
floating footwork
little lift to end.
 
It wasn't just the dismount that had problems. The first position in that lift was all off.

Islam/Paul got the highest technical score, by .25
 
to bad for the Kerrs...I hate their SD but their FD is beatifull. Congrats to C/P (get some new costumes!) they were great.
