I stan Daniel, but I also stan Stephan, so I'm double stanning right now

Did Deniss have those spins before being coached by Lambiel?

For a program with that much rockin' electric guitar it was a little dull. First fall of the night
the camera loves Lambiel

 

[Violet Bliss]

Frantic music and program from Deniss.

 

[Sugarpova]

These men look fine, the coaches and the athletes! :hap93: *shallowbuttrue*

Sooo agree

 

[Princessroja]

I love Deniss, and I love the way the program starts, but the music and performance peters out at the end. so it's too anticlimactic.

Interesting, because I actually thought the opposite--the music gets all quiet right as he's doing something interesting and shows him off nicely.

 

[cathlen]

Oh Deniss. I like the music very much, and as always superb spins!

 

[silverfoxes]

Did Deniss have those spins before being coached by Lambiel?

Yes.

 

[TheGrandSophy]

Some beautiful spins from Deniss. Not sure about the way the music petered out.

 

[gravy]

TBF, we ain't much better in the US.

Da. And Canada for that matter.

Being a half-Russian who was NOT born or raised in the US though, it's funny to post these things especially considering how often I get PMs accusing me of hating Russia.

 

[Crossover]

Hmmm.. the program is not my cup of tea, but his steps are so amazing.

 

[Matilda]

Watching Steph on the boards will be my new favorite thing about this GP

 

[Warwick360]

Can someone verify if Stefan is a vampire? He looks the same as videos from 10 years ago.

 

[nolangoh]

The final spin is awesome, you know he is a student of Lambiel just by looking at that

 

[Yatagarasu]

Grishin was wondering who the crowd claps for more, Deniss or Lambiel.

TAT thinks it's interesting with Lambiel. That you can see him in the program during the spin, she said earlier and now that just because he could do it, doesn't mean he can teach it (so they'll see in the future I guess). Also talked about the missing quad and axel that isn't working (they joked about this earlier when it happened, in re to Lambiel).

 

[Lota]

But I guess why not just choreograph another new program? As I said I like the program, but I think I don't see the freshness lasting a season.

No time? Money? I don't know, maybe they're focusing more on the Olympic season and letting this one go a bit? For the record I agree with you, I'd also like to see a different program from him.

 

[nolangoh]

"Una Furtiva lagrima"...why this

 

[Matilda]

The final spin is awesome, you know he is a student of Lambiel just by looking at that

He did that spin before he started working with Steph though.

 

[Biellmann]

Why are they talking about Yuzuru and 4loop

 

[gravy]

Hay Stephane. Call me girl.

Also Deniss looks soooo much less like a 9 year old without that bowl cut. 3A troubles like his mentor too. He's essentially on track to be an artist.
