2021 Skate Canada Challenge: Senior Ice Dance

[rain]

FB/S — looks like this is going to be new as well. It's Christmas!

 

[Seven Sisters]

OMG. Voiceovers!!! NOOO!

 

[Seven Sisters]

Combining the worst features of Pap/Ciz ‘s spoken word thing, and Chock/Bates’ snake dance. Major misfire, and I LIKE this team!

i will have to watch this a few times before i get into FBS... different, not sure if it works for me, program

and those guys were my faves for the RD LOL

 

[tinlizzie]

I loved this!

 

[Colonel Green]

A couple of awkward moments there (those were definitely not level 4 twizzles from Nik, tech panel), but I liked that more than I generally like voiceover programs.

Last lift was a mess, all the rest of them were divine. Not sure how I feel about the the spoken word bits. Kind of feels like my meditations I listen to to go to sleep, lol. I think I'd maybe actually like it better without them.

They are never going to beat Gilles & Poirier with THIS.

I really like it. And I usually hate voiceovers. It caught my attention.

I know me too.

Oh, it caught my attention all right!
I dont know the music source, is it a video game or something?

I would have to agree. A great team but the dance was just odd + major mishap on the last pose.

 

[rain]

May be controversial, but I think LaLa should perhaps beat this at this time. Needs mileage.

 

[Colonel Green]

Long tech panel wait. Not generally good news.

 

[4everchan]

well they need to lower the level on nik's twizzle... so that may take some time

 

[Supernovaimplosion]

I like the caramel dress better

 

[Colonel Green]

Looking at the standings, it reminds me that dance is the only discipline that isn’t completely dominated by Ontario right now.

 

[Supernovaimplosion]

Ice dance goe confuses me

 

[tinlizzie]

OMG, in tears. That was so beautiful

 

[rain]

Your clear winners, Piper and Paul. Stunning. Amazing speed, flow, emotion. World class. So sophisticated. Deceptively simple looking because it was so clean, without wasted flailing. Beautiful. And they replaced the last major lift where she used to lie on his back! I kept saying the should since they didn't score so well with the other one. So bummed they didn't get to perform this for a home crowd in Montreal.

But on another note, this rink is the ugliest one they filmed in, by far. It looks like a high school gym, from the paint colours, to the bleachers and wall of funhouse mirrors. Awful. Even distracting signs on the walls. It evokes the notion of sweaty gym socks, not elegant skating.

They got 77 in tech which is about 0.5 higher than Hubbell and Donahue got yesterday. Chock and Bates got 74ish but they had a mishap on the twizzles. Their overall score was better than the top 2 American teams.
