2025 Skate Canada Rhythm Dance PBP - I'm Too Spooky

[Karen-W]

JvRStef - I'm not sure what I just watched and I don't know that I feel like it screamed '90s, but I didn't hate it as a program, so I guess there's that.

 

[peibeck]

Van Rensburg/Stefan's rhumba at the bowling alley is so sloppy... I just cannot.

 

[marbri]

I enjoyed the Germans. And for those who are in disbelief patterned shirts like he is wearing were definitely a thing in the 90´s

 

[Belsornia]

Janse vas Rensburg/Steffan look sharp, managing to cover about twice as much ice in the choreo step as most teams. Programme is not bad, considering the dumb rules. I like her teal dress even if it isn’t 90s, and this isn’t the worst shirt he’s worn.

 

[Jay42]

I just can't with the German team. There is a part of me that wants to enjoy them but I just don't enjoy them at all.

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

Germany used to have talented dancers. We all had to listen to Jungle Bill for 3 minutes.

 

[Desperado]

Is the trim on Jennifer's dress the same material?

ed - close up view shows that it is. That's a choice

Yep. The dress doesn't fit with the shirt at all and would be lovely on its own.

 

[Citlali]

Nothing about this says 90s, including the ugly dad shirt

 

[Rukia]

anyway i find their skating kind of sloppy?

 

[~tapdancer~]

B/S weren’t great but the Germans are just unwatchable.

why?

Everybody Be My Lover could be the official music of Team Dostatni

packing it up now because i will not top this

 

[Baby Yoda On Skates]

I don't think I bought enough peanut butter cups to get through this waste of a decade.

 

[genevieve]

This music is more what I associated with the 90s. Not sure about the costumes though his shirt would be right at home at a Nivrana concert. Hers, not so much.

um, not in the least???

 

[MacMadame]

Their music choices definitely are 90s. Their costumes would be at home in Whitesnake video though which is more 80s to me.

 

[Braulio]

american girls getting the twizzle level 2 fever today

 

[Colonel Green]

Ah, the music of my childhood, being performed by senior skaters born after it came out. Sigh.

 

[Rukia]

wow this is slow

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Kaitlin Weaver just said Nes/Mar were the future of ice dance so I guess more green card marriage teams might be coming our way.

 

[tony]

She looked so rough in the twizzle sequence. It was 'done' but her arms coming out every time and her body was off balance. L2 I see called for her. Her steps through the pattern are also shallow and sticky. I don't like the choreography and it looks super watered down while he quite literally skates circles around her.

This, too, is sloppy and Be My Lover is one of the pieces Thomas and I were begging of a team to use.

All the American teams on the GP so far (save C/B) have managed to make the programs look like Glee auditions.

 

[Jay42]

These music cuts are almost as bad as Chock and Bates radio station original iteration of their RD from last season. They need to cut out at least two of them.

 

[Baby Yoda On Skates]

As a teen in the 90s, where is the flannel, baby doll tees, and slip dresses????

N/M really did look at C/B for musical inspiration huh.

 

[Wyliefan]

Nothing special about this program, but they're selling it for all they're worth.

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

This program seemed too frenetic with way too many music cuts for N/M. They seemed to be off in parts. Not sure this RD theme plays to their strengths.

 

[Karen-W]

NesMark - there are way too many music edits. She also doesn't quite finish her moves - just not much sharpness from her today.

 

[Wyliefan]

Yes, Chris, they had it all there.

 

[Braulio]

La Bouche, Destiny's child, Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls... Don't know what to think about this thing

 

[skatingguy]

Leah Neset/Artem Markelov
Coach: Elena Dostatni

Sequential Twizzles W:2 M:4 (W:B M:4 after review)
Pattern Dance Type Step Sequence 3 (2 after review)
Choreo Rhythm Sequence
Diagonal Step Sequence W:2 M:2

Why pick one 90's super group when you can skate to all of them? What a miss of a program.

65.51 = 2nd Place

 

[Sally1214]

So, everybody, did you rock your body to that? If not, no one to blame but yourselves. A few low levels here again but it was kind of fun, no?

 

[kirkbiggestfan]

He deserves a green card and citizenship for wearing that gold top and pleather.
