2026 Olys Rhythm Dance PBP - Livin' La GOE Loca

[ilovesalchows]

Are all these teams coming closer to the boards than usual?

 

[slicekw]

Are Fear/Gibson as close in the first section as they look on camera?

 

[MacMadame]

Are all these teams coming closer to the boards than usual?

I think so. Noticed for G/P too

 

[Colonel Green]

Lilah saves those twizzles, but that's the first chink in the armour.

 

[Andrey aka Pushkin]

Fear/Gibson and Spice Girls is a match made in... well... purgatory, I guess; and yet, somehow this just doesn't work.
Hate this RD as well.

 

[Wyliefan]

Lilah looked like she was hanging on for dear life in that second set of twizzles. Kudos for surviving!

 

[Karen-W]

Oooo - bobble on the twizzle for Lilah - I'm betting it drops a level after the review.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Lilah saves those twizzles, but that's the first chink in the armour.

Scores don't seem to reflect that.

 

[floridaice]

Twizzle bobble for Lila on the 2nd set

 

[MacMadame]

Slow and careful like many of the teams. Probably for the best to get the levels.

 

[Former Lurve Goddess]

I'd hoped that I'd come to love the 90 RDs by the time we got to the Big Os. Alas....

 

[once_upon]

I’m wondering if she still has the international qualifications.

I was thinking perhaps she has some health issues making travel not recommended

 

[Colonel Green]

Technical score pre-review is about the same as Gilles & Poirier.

Lilah Fear/Lewis Gibson
Coach: R. Haguenauer, P. Lauzon, M.F. Dubreuil
Music: Wannabe, Spice Up Your Life

Midline Step Sequence W:3 M:3
Sequential Twizzles W:4 M:4 (W:3 M:4 after review)
Pattern Dance Type Step Sequence 4 (3 after review)
Choreographic Rhythm Sequence
Rotational Lift 4

A moment of doubt in the 2nd twizzle for Lilah, but otherwise a good performance.

85.47 = 3rd Place

 

[Private Citizen]

Great skate from F&G. Much better than team event. Fast and fun and projected to the top of the arena. If they beat G&P on the second mark, OK in my book.

 

[genevieve]

someone check @miffy 's pulse!

 

[ilovesalchows]

These programs are exactly what makes Ice Dance good for TV for those 4 year fans, though. Otherwise it's just "why aren't they doing the big tricks?"

 

[Bunny Hop]

Fear/Gibson - I was about to say they look really sharp then Lilah wobbled on the twizzles. Can't argue with their commitment to the theme and performance level. They've cleaned up their edges on the steps - still a bit shallow for me but I'm a bit of a purist in that regard. Overall that was great. They are the team that has really embraced the way dance is heading (whatever some of us think of that). Always love watching them.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Lilah's twizzle is down to L3.

 

[tangerine dream]

Highway ****ing robbery. L/B’s dance was most intricate of anyone’s.

If F-B/C aren't retiring after this season, L/B need to look into a country change. Maybe AZE.

 

[tony]

Should be more like 6th for how this was skated, but 3rd it’ll be.

 

[Smiley0884]

I love L/B So sad that they probably won't be in the final group for the free (unless someone has a disaster which I don't want to root for).

She is SO 90s, I love this RD for them.

 

[CantALoop]

Pretty tentative - could use a little bit more spice.

Oh well, I still enjoyed it - then again I'm a sucker for campy "girl goes clubbing with her gay bestie" type programs.

 

[Desperado]

I'll never get the Fear / Gibson judge love.

 

[NinjaTurtles]

Probably just behind Piper/Paul?

 

[Karen-W]

Lilah's twizzle has already dropped to L3 and their TES is about .4 below GilPoir... Going to be close but this is probably just a smidge behind GilPoir overall, I think.

 

[beepbeep]

I can’t with these IAM scores, I just can’t.
And, of all the teams they could choose to dump, they dumped Lopareva/Brissaud

 

[ilovesalchows]

If F-B/C aren't retiring after this season, L/B need to look into a country change. Maybe AZE.

Anyone can be Spanish!

 

[Hanna]

If Lilah had to do ONE more twizzle in that second set she would've gone over.
