2026 Junior Worlds - Free Dance

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Nicolas is a rockstar, and she rocks too!

Skating to Mishin impossible, this is some other level of Italianism!

Loved them
Twizzles-shmizzles

 

[Karen-W]

Babs gave her junior dance team one of the most bizarre music mashups... Moulin Rouge, ambulance sirens, and the Mission Impossible theme. What in the hell?!

Soldati/Tagliabue

Nice presence on the ice, he struggled on twizzles, would like to see them achieve more power in their basic skating

Not quite the level of refined technique that the French had

 

[Wyliefan]

The Mission Impossible part was fun at least. But those twizzles took them out.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Is it a Canadian thing to have classical paintings on the dress?

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

This program is much more mature than the others, and I'm not 100% sure it's a compliment.
I feel like a need a nice glass of Brandys to get through it.

Vellion/Brandys

Good unity of movement, skating closely together, they are putting more into the performance than earlier in the season, well done

 

[Karen-W]

Layla Veillon has a very noticeable O-face through much of this program & it's very distracting.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Adria looks cute

I can tell how much you "admire" this (CDN) team

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

How do you say you're an Ukrainian ice-dance couple without saying you're an Ukrainian ice-dance couple?

 

[Wyliefan]

That lift is spectacular.

It takes a lot for me to notice an O-face, so the fact that I noticed it should tell you just how severe it was. I don't really have an opinion about them one way or the other, though I did feel like the program (mostly the music selection) was a little too generic for an IAM-O team.

Pidgaina/Koval

Nice basic skating with good speed and power, think they could finish the leg line more, fast rotating twizzles (level 3 for her).

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Sexy Koval

And in the best traditions of Grushina/Goncharov, we have another FD with 3000 music cuts, hunched boy and at least a kilogram of make up.

 

[her grace]

I kinda want to see what a different choreographer could do with them. They’re better than their material

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Artem's hobbies include "being a drama queen".
Which is easily the best thing about them.

 

[Wyliefan]

Happy tears! They really wanted that medal!

 

[Kateri]

Are we SURE that PG/BK are French, and V/B are Canadian? It really feels like it ought to be the other way around.

 

[Karen-W]

Good Jr Worlds for Ukraine! A bronze in pairs and now a guaranteed medal in dance!

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Ambre is insanily pretty.
Skating to "The Legend of Klaperman". At the GPF I thought this program was much better than it had the right to be.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Samuel is having a day off.

 

[Karen-W]

Looks like some of the top section of Ambre's braid has come loose. I'm sure she'll be fine and it won't be a problem for her but I know it would distract the crap out of me if I was skating, lol.

 

[her grace]

PG/BK

He is really into the Tarzan theme, excellent edges through the turns, good body control, he dropped a level on twizzles, nice job, TES is behind UKR

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Olivier!

Apparently she just had a bad haircut that was too short, so I guess it won't stay in the braid anymore.

She should have been an '80s kid. She would have known how to spray and bobby pin the daylights out of that thing. It wouldn't have moved for a month.

 

[her grace]

Vive la France!!

I may be their only uber and I don’t care

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

It's been a while since we had a sculptor who brings a statue to life, really. I mean, at least a month!

 

[Wyliefan]

Those balloony pants on Daniil are terrible.
