how can you skate to Dune and not call a sandworm?

 

[MacMadame]

Who knew there were so many sequins in the sand dunes.

Girl, that's the SPICE!

 

[Wyliefan]

Sounds like the crowd is going nuts for that somersault onto his shoulders!

Well, ok, I can't deny it. It's a brilliant program.
There's zero edge work between the elements, but it is one of the first FDs tonight that didn't feel 15 minutes long

 

[my little pony]

Olivia looks great in beige rags, that should be her whole wardrobe

 

[JoannaLouise]

I really loved Olivia & Tim's FD today!

I haven't always been "into" it this season, maybe because the theme had lost some of its freshness for me, but they really sold it today.

 

[Private Citizen]

Controversial take: I love the mood, the character, and the highlight moves, but there is barely a dance hold in the program and it’s verrrrry slow in places. I’d have it below C&P and probably even lower.

 

[PRlady]

Best Dune 2 of the season. Dramatic and sharp. Should move them up.

 

[Aussie Willy]

OMG Olivia and Tim - that was amazing. That really is the best choreographed program of the season.

The program breathes. Hits every nuance and phrase of the music.

 

[Bill Trenary]

Sounds like the crowd is going nuts for that somersault onto his shoulders!

I would go nuts if Tim did that to me

 

[Citlali]

Olivia and Tim

 

[Braulio]

70 TES WOW

 

[Wyliefan]

Olivia and Tim: "We are TOO Spanish!"

 

[jadingirl]

I love that Program so much!

 

[Sally1214]

S/D: Spellbinding. Loved it. That opening lift is everything.

 

[miffy]

Great skate for S/D

Will Olivia's costumes always be backless now to show her tatts off or was it just for the Olympic year?

 

[pat c]

I love dune. Good for them.

 

[ryanj07]

That was very nice from S/D! They'll stay top 10 with that.

 

[Jay42]

Dune 2 definitely hit better today than it has. I'm glad they got to have that moment.

 

[peibeck]

Both "Dune" programs were "vibes" programs. But the 24-25 season program was just simply better. The opening lift and last choreo lift are still incredible though.

 

[overedge]

The music was so different and interesting, and the choreography was incredible. But I just can't with these costumes. I haven't seen the film(s) but even if I had I think I still would have found them distracting.

 

[millyskate]

Olivia looks sunburnt !

Happy their Olympics are going better than Sheffield

 

[tangerine dream]

For better or worse, I think every future Smart/Dieck FD will be compared to Dune.

 

[skipaway]

I actually think these costumes for Dune 2 are genius

A Madison Chock original…again!

 

[Smiley0884]

That lift entry with his head between her legs is.....something.

Welp they’re coached by Scott Moir afterall

 

[canbelto]

I love their creative lifts.
