2015 NHK Short Dance

YESSSSS FIRST!!!

Apparently I'm now an H/D fan. Prior to this season I kind of wanted H/B to bump them off the World team, but I've changed my mind.

Same here.

YAY SHIBS!

 

[caitie]

oh god the tech panel is taking a long time this is bad

 

[Serious Business]

Oh dear, Maia-bot went out of commission during the bows, but luckily Alex managed to reboot her! That was too cute!

 

[caitie]

Yesssss I'M SO HAPPY :')

 

[andromache]

Those bears someone threw to the Shibs are the most precious things I've ever seen in my life!

Super happy for both the Shibs and H/D! Both placements well-deserved. Do we really have to wait until tomorrow to see the FD?

 

[MIM]

Shibs are brilliant and their Tech score is higher than H/D. But I love the SD from H/D.

 

[Hyena]

Yeah Shibs! The bears with their costumes are too cute.

 

[Scovies]

Wow, a more than 2-point jump from their Skate Canada scores. Well deserved, IMO.

 

[wordsworthgirl]

YAY! So happy the Shibs are finally getting the recognition they deserve!!! They are such fabulous skaters, and this year they have two fabulous -and very different- programs that showcase their technical superiority, playfulness, and lyricism.

Also, did anyone catch Alex saying he thought the stuffed animals needed to breathe, and then releasing them with a smile from their plastic encasings?!

It is, But just not an old fashioned Waltz, But yes it's waltz rythem

I thought it was in 6/8? Maybe I am off-base but that's what my ear was counting.

 

[invisiblespiral]

And on that note, I'm going to bed.

(Also, I want to rant at someone about bad writing. Maybe tomorrow?

Go Mao! Go Yuzu! Go Satoko and Mirai and Ashley and Anna and Kostya and Jin and Dornbush and Mura and Hotchstein and Balde! )

Doh, I meant to write 3/4. Thanks. I just looked up the Wiki and it says Leonard Cohen's original was written in waltz time, so what do I know

 

[Mrs. P]

I think they lost a level in the waltz...but 34+ PCS is awesome. Keep on building!

 

[glorybox6]

Wow, Shibs' PCS almost a full point higher than B/S. It's looking like we'll get a very interesting mini-nationals at the GPF after all.

 

[Mista Ekko]

Kinda looks like we have the podium three

Good news for Piper and Paul

 

[auser]

How cute ... Alex was worried about his stuffed toy being able to breathe, so he tore open the wrapping :luv17:

I saw that! It was one of my moments of the event

 

[lyndichee]

Shibshibs were such a joy to watch!

I seriously can't wait to see perform Fix You again tomorrow.

 

[rain]

I'd really like to see the Shibs on the worlds podium this year.

Go Mao! Go Yuzu! Go Satoko and Mirai and Ashley and Anna and Kostya and Jin and Dornbush and Mura and Hotchstein and Balde! )

Bye...I look forward to the adventures of Japanese Yuna and Korean Mao.
