2024 Finlandia Trophy Free Dance PBP - Thank You For Being a Finn

[Kaz7714]

Uff, the only thing I can say is that while I still find this program really meh, Paul's costume is growing on me.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I don't think Carol needs to explain to G&P that they're not going to get the scores they want.

 

[tony]

4th in FD, PCS almost the same as the Finns. Didn't think it would take a hit THAT much.

 

[SHARPIE]

Wheeee

I can go off to work happy now.

 

[MacMadame]

On Beyonce and Ellish, I don't listen to pop music so I know almost no Beyonce songs, especially the later ones, but I do think she has better ones than what was used. I'm not sure I'd call them insipid but the program just doesn't work for me.

As for Ellish, I don't like that she doesn't project her singing. I prefer bigger singing. Her latest single is the only thing she's done that I like.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Gilles/Poirier always have unique twizzles and don’t get enough credit for it. They change up the entrances, features, and exits season after season. And not only that, they’re choreographically thoughtful. Most teams find a L4 set they can achieve and repeat them with a modest change in how they do the required touch or non-touch.

 

[Private Citizen]

FORTH in the free! Good judging! Congrats to Fear and Gibson!

 

[Karen-W]

ok, officially all the top three have shown vulnerability in the gps. And the Brits will win both gps!

Yeah, at this point, if I were GuigFab, there's no way I'd be showing up to the GPF to potentially lose to FearGib ahead of Euros. Better to qualify and then WD on some "medical" excuse and then buckle down & fix their programs.

 

[Wyliefan]

Uff, the only thing I can say is that while I still find this program really meh, Paul's costume is growing on me.

I'm the other way around. Yes to the program, no to his costume.

 

[Belsornia]

Yikes, behing ZingNik

 

[Aceon6]

ZinKol 3rd in the FD. Whodathunkit?

 

[skategal]

At least they managed to hang onto second place.

 

[beckab81]

Mark keeps complimenting the choreo assisted jumps (the cartwheels and seasick), and I just hate that part of the program, seems so beneath them.

 

[her grace]

Behind Z/K in FD. Good judging!

 

[jlai]

And Z/K got third in the fd

 

[Wyliefan]

Well, now C/B and G/P can go out for drinks and commiserate over losing to F/G.

 

[Belsornia]

Ahhh Jean Luc was so amazing, what is he doing now?

Oliva Smart's instagram boyfriend!

 

[Wyliefan]

This interviewer is slightly unhinged.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

I bet Fear/Gibson win post-Olympics 2026 Worlds.

 

[Primorskaya]

Wow, baaaaad score. But it's just not a good programme. Another one. I guess it is the year of "saving the good stuff for the Olympics"

 

[LeafOnTheWind]

Mark calling this the most unpredictable ice dance season ever with a question mark. Is there a more unpredictable season because this one is competing for number 1.

 

[tangerine dream]

Yeah, at this point, if I were GuigFab, there's no way I'd be showing up to the GPF to potentially lose to FearGib ahead of Euros. Better to qualify and then WD on some "medical" excuse and then buckle down & fix their programs.

aka, the Belbin/Agosto

 

[honey]

Lilah’s pony tail is impressively full.

 

[tony]

Lewis was going to come to MIAMI but he told me that he's likely going to Mexico instead. Hateful. I was ready to take him to all the drag shows.

Oh, no. Skipping the GPF is the kiss of death for a career! Just ask Belbin/Agosto. Better to go down fighting than not even make the attempt to stay ahead.

 

[tony]

GPFinal - Dance:

1 Fear/Gibson 30 Points - only 2-time winners
2 Chock/Bates 28 Points
3 Gilles/Poirier 28 Points
4 Lopareva/Brissaud 26 Points

All in.

Next week, all of Lajoie/Lagha, Carriera/Ponomarenko, Guignard/Fabbri have 13 points. Whoever finishes with bronze is out of the Final.

 

[MacMadame]

Lilah’s pony tail is impressively full.

Does she have some silver going on at the roots? Or was it the lighting?

Lewis was going to come to MIAMI but he told me that he's likely going to Mexico instead. Hateful. I was ready to take him to all the drag shows.

They have drag shows in Mexico. Sounds like a good field trip for you.

 

[Karen-W]

Listen, I could care less when they go down. What I really need is for CarPon to make it to the GPF, dammit.

 

[Sally1214]

Points to Lilah for looking forward to a traditional Christmas in Canada. No snow yet (in Halifax) but there's always hope for a white Christmas.

 

[her grace]

Listen, I could care less when they go down.

Which is why they shouldn’t listen to your advice
