I prefer the Canadian vampires... but they are close second.

yeah... i don't drink anymore. i stopped during the lockdown because it was getting too much i am good healthy kombucha boy now

My lager soaked heart goes out to you

That leg wrap is so bad though, like half of the time I do not even understand how Rebecca even lands her jumps. Most crazy part is that she still fully rotates her 2As because she literally jumps so high.

GG can't agree on a costume style.

Eek time to get nervous.

Aussie Aussie Aussie!

 

[elektra blue]

Thank you. I miss @balabam.

[4everchan]

Aussie Aussie Aussie!

Oi! Oi! Oi!

Heh it's a national reflex.

 

[Dawn825]

Anastasia's costume is not where it's at

 

[Rebecca Moose]

ugh I like the Aussies but these costumes don't go together at all. wtf? not even the same color palette. it accentuates their relative weakness on non-singles elements imo

 

[4everchan]

they have a gordeeva grinkov feel...

they ditched their 3t-3t-2t ... they need to learn the 3t-2a-2a

 

[TT_Fin]

That as an example what I have been telling about. She takes to time to plan her dress. He goes to supermarket and buys just something from the first clothes rack he sees.

+5.00 GOE on Hector's drama arm!

Although the spiral only got a Level 2, bummer.

Anastasia's costume is not where it's at

She looks like a 10 year old in it.

Unfortunately Rinky still doesn't seem to be quite finished with his breakfast.

I feel like you can tell which version of Nastya and Hektor you are going to get based on the twist. Today, it was a little shaky and nervy

Hey you're right, old school!

I have a terrible feeling they won't stay on the podium though, this saddens me.

Nice ending though!

Hector has the best face.

These costumes really aren't it. Not only do they not match each other, but they also kind of look cheap? Like, I just feel that if I touched the fabric. it would be that kind of cheap-feeling fabric my mother would always tell me not to purchase because it wouldn't hold up well with wear

Though maybe it's also the colour that makes me think that, or the kind of juvenile feel about it.

 

[Rebecca Moose]

would definitely put that behind G/A imo...great sbs jumps but so many other elements were rough
