2018 Skate Canada Free Dance

[Princessroja]

Okay, Victoria's hair is super distracting. I'm actually surprised it didn't come out mid-program.

 

[Metis]

OH damn

There are things I enjoy about H/D, but “nuance” is not in their vocabulary.

 

[NoNameFace]

This is what H/D think their R&J programme is.

**shade has entered the room**

 

[rain]

That's the best I've ever seen S/K skate. Great twizzles. She is one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen. It's still a little bland in the beginning, though pretty.

 

[GGFan]

Nikita is such a star in his own mind. It totally detracts from most of the program because he's trying too hard and never lets a moment happen. He needed to be skating in the 90s with Krylova.

Hmm, I know people really like Sinitsina/Katsalapov's free dance this year, but this isn't quite doing it for me. I feel like we've seen more dynamic programs tonight.

It's nice but generic. I couldn't help thinking, "Haven't I seen another team do this?"

 

[BillNeal]

This dance fell flat in that middle section especially. I think it's also risky to use music that Klimova/Ponomarenko used for their OG winning FD.

Really? I know a lot of people that don't like it.
(I do, but I know next to nothing about ice dance, so...)

Tracy is a fan of Nikita and Victoria.

 

[Colonel Green]

Just wanted to ask - if their FD had this much power and pull live as it seemed through the screen?

It was, indeed. The circumstances, of course, also enter into it; you could feel the audience on their side.

AH! That's why it sounds familiar!

Once again I missed the pairs and men due to this wonderful bronchitis I’ve been battling for the last week.

I have three snoring dogs, a baby, a bottle of Buckley’s, a vial of antibiotics, a box of tissues, two fleece blankets, and a tub of ice cream accompanying me in the living room right now. Hopefully I won’t drop dead or anything.

Good. God!! Please feel better soon....

 

[skylark]

More love from me, this time for Sinitsina and Katsalapov

He is magnetic. I can't stop watching him. So handsome, and his limbs, hands, everything match his handsome face. He's magnetic.

okay, maybe I should stop raving.

I think it's very pretty but not very substantial. Especially when compared to something like the FD Piper and Paul just threw down tonight.

 

[kresslia]

1st in the FD. Lol H/D.

Krylova and Nikita together.. is there an ice surface big enough for them both?

 

[SarahSynchro]

Whoa, dude. First in the free?

 

[Mrs. P]

Amazing. so glad to.witness that live. I'm sure Colonia Green we share! (I know you didn't ask me lol)

 

[TontoK]

So what do you think?

I'm saying 3 in FD, 2 overall.

 

[pearly]

Ok, S/K will go into 2nd.
G/P face them and Papadakis/Cizeron in France. Hawayek/Baker and the Parsons too.
