2026 Europeans - Free Dance - "Sheffield Whinesday"

[Former Lurve Goddess]

S/F look like they are crawling. Not the right tempo for them.

I'm not sure anything is the right tempo for them.

 

[CassAgain]

Ugh, what’s the opposite of luck o’ the Irish?

 

[Spikefan]

Good thing no one is in my house as I screamed, “Oh No”!

 

[my little pony]

oh Jesus right as I was about to say this music suits them she fell, im the jinx

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Ugh, what’s the opposite of luck o’ the Irish?

The curse of the French-Canadian Irish-wannabe?

 

[Private Citizen]

Did the error at the end count as a fall, too?

I can’t believe they’ve been together for so long. They look like they just teamed up an hour ago. No unison, no speed, just horrible. They look like they’d be close to the bottom at Canadian nationals.

 

[miffy]

Poor Carolane She looks lovely with the red hair. It really suits her.

 

[peibeck]

That's one of the more painful "Riverdance" style programs I remember. They look rather under trained for this late in the season.

No offense to Shane, but I always thought Liam was the more musical skater of the Firus boys.

 

[Sally1214]

So, 3 dance couples and 2 falls. Hopefully, this isn't indicative of how the event is destined to go.

Looks like it - 2.00 in deductions.

 

[Hanna]

Carolane's splat was EXACTLY the kind of splat that would easily happen to me.

What a shame for them.

 

[delayedaxel]

I read that just as she fell

I love Irish stepdance too but so little of what we see on the ice qualifies.

I was inclined to write "Irish stepdance music" though...

3 falls.

 

[Braulio]

Whatever happened to Carol Lane? (With Soucise and Firus)

 

[MacMadame]

According to their ISU bio, the GER team is skating to 4 different versions of the same song.

 

[Sally1214]

3 falls.

 

[marbri]

Whatever happened to Carol Lane? (With Soucise and Firus)

Carol Lane happened to Carol Lane.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

M/L are cosplaying Gabriella/Guillaume. I wonder if they should get a link to the Gabriella's book thread.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

Whatever happened to Carol Lane? (With Soucise and Firus)

Lane rarely travels with her teams. Also no one not named Paul Poirier seems to succeed with her.

 

[tony]

This is Fusar-Poli and the program is actually quite nice! Why not for Guignard and Fabbri?! Really, the timing of the one-foot steps was brilliant to the music, regardless of the levels.

 

[Braulio]

According to their ISU bio, the GER team is skating to 4 different versions of the same song.

considering that is weird their coach is not Igor Shpilband

 

[Karen-W]

M/L are cosplaying Gabriella/Guillaume. I wonder if they should get a link to the Gabriella's book thread.

So, basically they're like every other mid-level international ice dance team competing?

 

[tony]

I LOVED IT. Wow.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

That's lovely from the Germans.
I would say I liked it more than the RD, but I probably love literally anything more than any RD, so...

 

[Sally1214]

I enjoyed that from Charise and Max.

 

[Braulio]

Loved the closing choreo lift, clever to finish with that image

I agree, why not giving something like that to Guignard & Fabbri Barbs?

 

[LilJen]

I enjoyed that from the Germans. I see he bought his top from the Sheerly by Adam Rippon collection.

 

[Spikefan]

Very enjoyable and love the green costumes.

 

[Marta24]

They improved so much since making the coaching change to Barbara.

 

[terisa]

That's probably the closest I've seen ice dance get to a modern dance number.
