2018 GP Helsinki Rhythm Dance

Time violation? For what? And what's a Violation of choreo restrictions?

It’s sad to live in a world where Stepanova is considered one of the best ice dancers.

I love how people conveniently ignore her poor SS

 

[Princessroja]

Oh man, if the time deduction really is for the music it had better be some kick-butt reason or they had better appeal. That's definitely worthy of an appeal.

 

[madison]

They're there. Time deduction for G/F.

Nooo... that's not fair... it wasn't their fault that there were troubles with the music.

S/B have a strong Federation behind and powerful people that started the lobby for them a long time ago.
Now, after the previous Olympic cycle is over and many teams took a break, it's the right moment to push them.

I really hope G/F will end up in GPF this year, they really are among top6.

The penalty for violation of choreo restrictions was just one judge being persnickerty. I'd be curious to know which one that is.

If they got a timing violation for the start, hell i will file a protest.

It they stay on second (and I hope they will be first after tomorrow lol) they are in the final.

And yet, they haven't improved so noticeably to warrant such high GOEs.

Totally agree :agree:

 

[sweetice]

Rai's commentators says 3:03 time overall, but G/F's music is long 2:59

They started the chrono before the beginning of the music ? :confused2:

It's not G/F's fault.

If we're heading back to another era of politicking and judging shenanigans, then I'm done with dance. I'm getting too old for the BS.

 

[cheerknithanson]

I'm hyped for tomorrow! Ahhhhhhhhh!

There were several comments according to which, with the new scoring, judges are more influential than the tech panel. In conclusion, levels matter less than before, GOE is more important now.

We've gone from Davis and Virtue in the same era to...idek. I honestly can't see who P/C will compete with after V/M unless someone else steps it up with their programs, levels and SS.

Maybe H/D? they have strong skating skills .

One thing is for sure P/C at Europeans will be like Javier was among the European men in the last 5 years. There is no one to challenge them in Europe and maybe anywhere to be honest.

So far I like Guignard/Fabbris tango the best, they make me enjoy it - in general I would like tango season to end already :gaah:
And I also want to know what that time violation is for???

 

[gmyers]

S/b must be in extreme panic!! “Why is this so close!” They must be asking! This is a home event really.

 

[gmyers]

Sasha, do crack a smile, it’s a good score!

She knew it wasn’t!
