    Kana Muramoto/Daisuke Takahashi Cheer Thread

    He and his wife have two little daughters, and she knew it. He had brought his family to ice shows, and I heard that the kids had become quite attached to Kana and Dai.

    KASSOU-YA A new concept show produced and directed by Daisuke Takahashi | Fukuoka, Feb 10-12, 2024

    The show looks so cool :cool:, something that can attract people who don't usually watch figure skating or ice shows but love good entertainment and performance arts. I hope there will be more shows in other locations. Sota's Teeth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQh7PPut3IU

    Kana Muramoto/Daisuke Takahashi announce retirement

    While I respect their decision, I am very saddened by their retirement. I though he finally became an ice dancer and they reach the position where they could compete with the top teams in the world. There was still some room for improvement in his skating skills, and I wanted to see how far they...

    Kana Muramoto/Daisuke Takahashi Cheer Thread

    An interview of Marina Zueva by RT. Looks like they wanted to start this season with Denis Ten MC and have two competitions in the second half of GPS, possibly NHK Trophy and Espoo. Skate America was never in their plan, but USFS picked them.

    2022-23 Program Music and Choreographers

    To be honest, I'm a bit dissapointed that Kana and Dai chose POTO. On the other hand, I'm very curious how Marina brings a new interpretation. Kana said Marina's main theme is to focus on Dai, not Kana, which is exact oposite of what JSF's ice dance judges/coaches think "correct" ice dance...
