Choreo Character Step Sequence

Nice intensity to start. The skirt is very effective in the opening choreographic element. This is more in line with the type of program they were doing as top juniors - bombing around the ice at full speed, ono large sweeping curves. I'm here for it.

-1.00 = Extended Lifts
-1.00 = Falls
106.90 = 4th Place
181.19 = 1st Place

I hope the Mrazeks get some good results this season so they can afford to get choreo from someone other than Zanni next year. Since they’ve moved up to seniors their programmes have ranged from bad to bland and they are much too exciting skaters for this. At least it isn’t AI music, I guess.

That first lift is definitely a case of just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

Nice intensity, some of the shapes they create are really unaesthetic, though I wonder if they improved their posture if that issue would resolve. Nice speed, really going for it
 
Mazrakova has a super long skirt - I hope it doesn’t cause issues like it did in their jr days.
Is it designed to hide her lines? In that one lift, her leg positions were ugly and looked like they weren't quite what was choreographed.

Does Chris not know G/P are skating a reworked FD that they already had? I didn't catch it all but sure seemed like he didn't know.
I remember you telling us when he first appeared on Peacock that he doesn't follow the sport. (Which explained his bizarre coverage that first season. Horrid.) I think he does now, but if he had a gap in paying attention, that would explain it.
 
Interesting that M/M scored nearly a tie technically with L/Q. M/M have sure been around a lot longer.

She needs more tension in her legs. In a lot of the lifts, they seemed to just dangle and not be held.
 
The Rolift of Mrazek is not that nice... She is crawling on the floor to escape him OK...

Not going to hang myself with Lajoie/Lagha. Same music, different skating...
 
Weaver also said that the one-foot part of the section is supposed to end with the hop, so any one-foot step after that doesn't count.

Zanni has a mini-empire, and all we hear is about how his teams keep losing levels. They really need the Shin Amano of Ice Dance to review everything their teams do with a fine-toothed comb, and then send Judy Blumberg over for Round 2.
