It's a wonderful review and you write beautifully.

Great review, Teenes! It was great reliving it through your writing.
You were right: Abbott did do a 3/2 combo. Buttle was quick and to the point during the World Vision speech.

Really interesting article about how "Stars" of this year were created. It has much more than only stories about the show itself, it's about how to be creative with limited possibilities, what skating show should look like, about bringing outside perspectives to figure skating and more. Teenes, thank you so much!

Isnt this article about SOI, not SOI Canada?
Saw today USA show. They didnt show some parts. Show look very good, but i think canadian cast look much better![]()
Thanks, reut! I'm glad you enjoyed it =).
Yes, the article is about the US AND Canadian tour. Kurt did the bulk of the choreography and learning process on the US tour, and then made changes to the show for Canada, and I talked to him about both.
ETA: Sorry, just realized this broadcast is from December 2011!

It's not geoblocked (I can't watch it in Canada). Just now I tried to find it on the audio-video section of the site, but no luck so far. Perhaps someone can post a link if they find the recording archived.
ETA: I should have examined your links more carefully. Since the 2011 broadcast is archived under "Emissions Integrales - Sport Week-end", the 2012 broadcast may end up on that section of the site in a few days.
