2025 GPF Ice Dance Rhythm Dance -“Are you gonna slow my way?”

[Sally1214]

YAY, PIiper and Paul. Their best RD this season, imo. Loved how the rotational lift picked up speed. Just skated with more confidence overall. Great job!

 

[MacMadame]

Piper's hair is so Gwen Stefani. They should skate to No Doubt instead of this.

Loving how the replays aren’t showing the feet at all

G/P Score seems a bit low?

Welcome to the new sport of Vibe Dance.

That was a nice backstage shot of Madison looming in the shadows behind F-B/C. Cameraperson's got a good sense of theater.

Mark: "everyone wants to see ice dance thrive." Have you met the Ice Dance Technical Committee, Mark?

 

[tony]

Mark's talking in circles, you can tell he wants to say so much more

Welcome to the new sport of Vibe Dance.

How bad is it when the shenanigans of this season makes me want to cheer for LFB/C to win it all BECAUSE they can both actually ice-dance.

Go LFB/C

Since I usually ignore dance, I haven't seen the French RD. The elbow length gloves are a look.

4 Lilah FEAR/Lewis GIBSON GBR

Yeah, knew it was Gerri-inspired.
Felt a bit off in the beginning. Getting with the music slowly.
Liked it.

 

[tony]

The amount of work these two have put in to the difficulty of the program itself is really something. In both programs this year. The twizzles are kinda meh but done. I don't ever like the steps they put in between their sequences because it just kills the flow. But actually otherwise quite well-skated with him obviously being the more proficient.

No that's Lilah's edges.

This may well be the battle for Olympic bronze between this team, and Gilles/Poirier. Technical score is very close before reviews.

82.55 = 2nd Place

 

[Karen-W]

Well, that wasn't the worst, but still... Most of these RDs feel like they're going on forever this season.

 

[MacMadame]

They seemed slower and more careful than usual? Possibly?

 

[Wyliefan]

I am in no teknik, but I thought Piper and Paul were better today.

 

[skategal]

The vibe was great so under this judging system equals 100000000 points.

F/G

Moving with good rhythm, think Fear should stop lip syncing as it didn’t seem fully committed and isn’t really necessary, a couple turns felt forced in pattern dance, nice rotational lift, connecting well with audience

 

[PRlady]

Visiting stepdaughter looks up from her book to see if I can turn music down. And she’s a ‘90s kid.

 

[Wyliefan]

Close, but into 2nd. I'm good with that.

 

[Karen-W]

FearGib beat GilPoir on PCS, but TES dropped a bit after the review.

 

[Sally1214]

Love the Spice Girls and apparently so does the Japanese audience!! Lilah and Gibson brought it. That was fun!

 

[TAHbKA]

Тhe stuff Fear/Gibson do from the long border to the long border - I can do as well. Think it should be an indication to `they did nothing for 20 seconds except for waving their hands in the air and smiling to the judges'

 

[tony]

Pattern step 1 for F/G, she held a higher level 3 on midline than him (2)

 

[her grace]

Ok, he’s more than 2 meters from boards and they’re moving diagonally, fixed the fake choreo step call

 

[MINAM]

5 Laurence FOURNIER BEAUDRY/Guillaume CIZERON FRA

Love his long gloves.
Crowd pleasing program.

 

[tony]

This was SO GOOD. Such clean, definitive, slam dunk edges. Pattern step 4, in fact for now.

They just have it. And I much prefer their FD.
