Virtue and Moir #22 - To Russia with love

[DORISPULASKI]

Yes, that's what I thought he meant, and that he was really saying B&S have no real advantages, but I don't speak Russian.

There's no picture of the month anymore on the website but they changed the pic http://virtuemoir.com

Thanks, marikat! The photo is nice, but it's a bit odd that they didn't choose a picture from their new FD. It's creating so much buzz, yet no pictures of it at all...yet. Maybe they're still updating though.

Scott had trouble with the Latin free and short;.

When? Considering they skated free one time o saw he didnt had any troubles.
As for SD - i think they had problems because it was hard to put CD in there FD. And this dance was the best when they let Scott to be the main in this dance and this was at WCh At FT, when this dance was made on Tessa and Scott still cold to her didnt play well.
And i think in latin dance patner play the main role. Maybe thats why D-W SD last season wasnt so good.

I think they try to do this/ Maybe they will post more photos soon.

As long as we're on the topic, can I just say that, while I'm in constant amazement at Scott's incredible natural talent and I believe he's not only the best male ice dancer of his time but one of the greatest of all time, I admit to having a total girl crush on Tessa. So, there, Golightly, you're not the only one.
But as Pani said, when they're on the ice, it's hard to imagine they're two separate entities. One wouldn't function without the other.

Thank you!
I will missed last SS from "Carmen" FD But hope this will bring to them high levels, so....
Interesting, when they will come to Russia? Dylan Moscowich said they wil go tomorrow.

[marikat]

Thank you!

yeah and i also love the circular steps. Hopefully they didn't have to change them too much.

[IoanaC]

I also hope they've only changed some steps, not the intricacy of the diagonal sequence. For sure, the attitude and attack must still be there, since it's all part of the development of the story. They've probably received feed-back as to why exactly they had level 2 and modified those bits.
What I don't get is why they changed the circular SS too. Everything worked so well with the music...

I am not a judge, but i thought the diagonal SS get level 2 because of they were a little tired and not show all edges and turns clean...
You know, i only hope they will not made SS generic to get there levels, because in this case they will have programs, like all others have - nothing special. Feedback is good, but not in case if they ask V-M to made programs without sex and more gereric
And i have question - who worked with them on new SS?

As for GPF. Hope they will have save trip. There are not good weather now in Moscow.
