2017 Internationaux de France Short Dance

[NoNameFace]

Sackie, it’s so nice to see you back with your passive aggressive WeaPo doom and gloom. How’ve you been?

On another note, I just love the flowers in Kaitlyn’s hair, her gorgeous makeup and her fabulous dress. Andrew looks pretty darn gorgeous as well. Go WeaPo!

she looked like blond Cubana from 50's postcards, totally in character, but unique at the same time - where most of ladies are serving fringe, cutouts or over-sparkle, Kaitlyn does it in more 'demure' way, still wowing the audience. And love the vividness of flowers in her hair, bracelets...It gives out some 'vintage' vibe, but the chemistry between them look oh so real, I'm bracing myself for another 'Harem battles' round between 4everchan and SarahSynchro

 

[all that]

Technical Panel:
TC: Ms. Christine HURTH - French
TS: Ms. Marie BOWNESS - Canadian
ATS: Ms. Francesca FERMI - Italian
Referee: Mr. Shawn RETTSTATT - American

I hope this panel is going to exercise fairness. But with a Canadian in the Technical Specialist chair, I expect W/P to do well. Anyway, the French Judge seems OK. The American being the Referee does not have a vote or say in regard to the judging process. I think, S/B will do well, too.

This panel won't pose any problems for P/C at least. Plus, the judging panel looks good, so they should be receiving great GOEs and PCS. Can't wait to see these programs again, and the new scores!

Oh, David Molina will look at that: 202-203 this time ? ( 205 is for Oly)

 

[LadyB]

I hope the WeaPos do very well indeed! They were a bit short changed throughout the entire last season. They deserve a bit of glory again against the current Uber-Powers. :dance:

Equal treatment is always good. We won't want to see only V/M getting 90 for a SD right?

you actually can't get a 90 in the SD. I think the max is around 85.

The hands of jazz are here!

I am here to pull hard for W/P. I will try not to be obnoxious about it.

lol at the zamboni beeping it's horn! It's like it's on a superhighway.

 

[ancientpeas]

Aw.. guys.. don't start with all the overscoring, underscoring V/M-P/C bashing before the event even starts. Otherwise I'm going to want to drive over you with the Zamboni and I won't use the horn except with glee after the smooshing.

TC : FRA
TS : CAN
ATS : ITA
Referees : USA

Canadian TS this week with P/C skating, but nothing to worry about if everything goes the same as last week with the French TC who did a good job. I hope it goes fairly between WeaPo and C/B.
On the other hand, ITA is the ATS, makes me want to put G/F above Step/Bukin in my predictions even though I don't know her

Marie Bowness, if I am not mistaken is well-known to be very unbiased with years of experience .... I don't think that any team would be advantaged or not with her as TS

Complaints about the ice from a lackluster ladies event. Per Tracy Wilson:

Tracy mentioning hard and crunchy ice with no give, that doesn't give back and you see toe picks slipping on takeoffs and that we've seen many of them making many skaters look uncertain.

Be as obnoxious as you like. Otherwise I may be, and I am not nearly as entertaining .

Any links to streams? The YouTube one seems to not be an option anymore.

I'm just hoping all the Poje lovers show up so a fight, a real fight, about something that matters like who loves Andrew most will break out.

I won't be watching LIVE, as I am currently watching the Pairs Free Skate at the NHK. And then will be switching over to watch the Qualifying for the opening Ski Jumping World Cup round of the season LIVE.

ALL THE BEST EVERYBODY!!!

After the ladies, I am terrified that the ice conditions will muck up the dance event too.
