Broadcast has started. Kaitlyn Weaver talking up "new ways" to dance on ice. How much do we need to bribe her with to get her to endorse a waltz RD next year?

I don't think there is enough money in the world to move her off her quest to rid ice dancing of "gendered" skating.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

You know things are bad when Britney Spears's music seems like an out of the box choice.

 

[Alilou]

Thank god finally someone did country!

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

The country music RD has awakened Kaitlyn Weaver's inner Texan.

 

[grimey]

Yay grunge!!!!

 

[BlueRidge]

Dropping in to see Nadiia!

Really appreciate that Skate Canada makes nationals so easily available outside the country.

 

[chewy]

Yay grunge!!!!

Big miss on costume, needs more flannel /s

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

My other half approves of the Nirvana music choice and the fact that Bashynska is Ukrainian.

 

[Alilou]

This may be irrational and based on nothing but I so badly want Nadiia Bashynsha to come out ahead of Peter Beaumont.

 

[BlueRidge]

Only in the context of most of the other music would I like that music used this year for the RDs, but it was wonderful.

 

[JoannaLouise]

The country music RD has awakened Kaitlyn Weaver's inner Texan.

When Shania says "let's go, girls", everyone heeds the call

 

[pat c]

Finally some interesting rd's. Yes to ST and Nirvana.

 

[Lana K]

Hmm, shame Nadiia and Peter couldn’t work it out. Neither new partnership is doing much for me irl. But I guess it’s still early days.

 

[Kateri]

This may be irrational and based on nothing but I so badly want Nadiia Bashynsha to come out ahead of Peter Beaumont.

Seems like Peter's new partner wants to help. She's... uh. I don't wanna be mean, but that was rough.

 

[Alilou]

Amanda Urban has a way to go to match Peter; at this point he over-powers her. But as Kaitlin said, it's marathon not a sprint. I'm still mad that Bash/Beaumont broke up.

 

[Desperado]

Seems like Peter's new partner wants to help. She's... uh. I don't wanna be mean, but that was rough.

She’s new to couples ice dance, was skating solo before (from Dailymotion French commentator).

 

[marbri]

Interesting. I was about to ask if she was a singles skater.

 

[chewy]

Seems like Peter's new partner wants to help. She's... uh. I don't wanna be mean, but that was rough.

I quickly found an article on Amanda Urban at ice dance.com. She developed in the solo dance stream which now has me thinking of how well that translates over to partnered work. https://www.ice-dance.com/site/meet-ice-dancer-amanda-urban/

 

[chewy]

100% pure overused song is in how many RD this year?

 

[beckab81]

If it wasn't the end of their season I'd STRONGLY suggest a costume change for Beaumont. I get the concept, but it made him look big and less fit, particularly in relation to Urban who looked rather frail. We'll see what ends up happening for them long term.

 

[beckab81]

N/G skated really well! Was there this much silver during the 90's, or just a fabric sale? Between Canadians & US Nats that seems to be the prevailing color!

 

[Skate Talker]

Note to Katarina Wolfkostin - that's how you do electric orange.

 

[Desperado]

Fournier/Zhu

Little punches don’t do it for me.

I hate how the music rule makes everybody look sloooooowwwwww.

 

[Skate Talker]

Oh the humanity! What a comment Kaitlyn..

 

[chewy]

Everest! Little rink rat from my canskate groups. Glad to see he's still at it.

 

[beckab81]

Robinson/Portz have my favorite music of the competition so far, very much some of the music I was listening to then.

 

[Kateri]

I adore these RHCP album-cover pattern costumes, that's super-cute.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Wow, we're getting both Weaver and Hanretty for the last group.
