Finlandia Trophy 2025 Rhythm Dance "I Really, Really, Really Wanna Zingas"

[slicekw]

No offense to beautiful Phoebe, but James gets all my attention.

If he got George’s razor cut sides, he’d be a heck of a lookalike.

I read a comment somewhere that part of the reason for these low calls are the tech panel deciding they didn't perform the required step on beat. And my two cents is if we are going to ask these teams to create their own patterns and then decide if their timing was correct or not then just bring back bloody compulsories and stop with this nonsense. At least then it will be a little more black and white if their timing hits or not.

House of Pain!

 

[tony]

I know I'm the only one in the world, but like the cute little Browns.

Welcome to fall 2025 where everyone loves them. Catch up.

 

[Allen]

I know I'm the only one in the world, but like the cute little Browns.

I had a breakthrough last week and started liking them.

 

[Colonel Green]

Oh Gage, tough day.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Yikes - the Brown's RD is turning into a house of pain.

 

[skategal]

Twizzle disaster

 

[Citlali]

Gage

Oona you rock, also the ovaries to get in that rotational lift when your brother looks jittery

 

[MacMadame]

DISASTER!!

 

[dancefan17]

Somewhat rhetorical question- how are we this far along in the season and there is such a discrepancy between what the tech panel is calling/looking for and what teams are delivering?

 

[Karen-W]

Dang! Twizzle disaster for Gage.

 

[PRlady]

Oh no they were doing so well!

 

[tony]

Incoming disaster score. Sigh. I suffer through sleep for this.

 

[Sally1214]

Twizzle disaster ... shame.

 

[Braulio]

NOOOOO Gage!!!!!!!!!! fecking the twizzles and his wont even count as ones

 

[Allen]

I feel like the Browns' costume look like they came from the 80s and don't match this music. But, hey, I'll take a program with a Deee-Lite interlude any day.

 

[slicekw]

Gage’s twizzles are screaming proprioception issues.

 

[genevieve]

Oh Gage those twizzles definitely jumped around

 

[MsZem]

But why are their costumes giving Enya vibes?

I mean, I guess that's 90s too.

 

[MacMadame]

I had an outfit just like Oona's back in the 90s.

 

[ilovesalchows]

Bummer. But this will kill at Nationals.

Rettstatt's in charge and he's obliterated almost every team in these two events so far. This is why I can't stand people talking about oh but the scores here or there were better, this is how it looks going into X competition. The panels have no consistency between them and these same skates from other GP panels would be L3 and pushing L4 without a batted lash.

 

[skatingguy]

Oona Brown/Gage Brown
Coach: I. Bucevica, R. Haguenauer, P. Lauzon, J. Dear
Music: Jump Around by House of Pain, Deee-Lite

Midline Step Sequence W:1 M:1
Sequential Twizzles W:3 M:* - Gage missed the skate blade catch on the 1st twizzle, and received no level for the element
Pattern Dance Type Step Sequence 1
Rotational Lift 4
Choreo Rhythm Sequence

They kept the performance going, but the twizzles crashed, and burned any hopes of upward movement at this event.

64.21 = 3rd Place

 

[Karen-W]

Well, 5 days ago, all the CarPon fans were despairing of their chances at making the US Olympic team. How the situation has turned around in the last 48 hours. Thank you, Warsaw & Helsinki.

 

[Sally1214]

So, are we going to blame this on jet lag or what? Such a disappointing performance for the Browns this week. Oh well (sigh) ...

 

[MacMadame]

So, are we going to blame this on jet lag or what?

Mark did.

 

[marbri]

I am just impressed Gage stayed on his feet during those twizzles so kudos for that I guess

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Welcome to fall 2025 where everyone loves them. Catch up.

Lol I was on their bandwagon before it was cool, and I missed the start of the season anyway.

Dare I say, as far as siblings go, I liked them more than the Shiibutanis, and this is the only program so far I don't hate from the bottom of my soul. So, go Browns!

 

[peibeck]

Yikes, Gage melt down on the twizzles.

This tech panel is like a mean old nun with a ruler.
