2026 US Nationals Free Dance "Nix You"

[her grace]

Do Cui and Rogers have what it takes to move up and really compete next quad?

Is anyone retiring?

 

[susieB129]

That was quite lovely!

 

[Braulio]

Do Cui and Rogers have what it takes to move up and really compete next quad?

technically yes, and also have Igor Shpilband, so...

Dear Ashley must not realize that we can hear the scores from the arena.

 

[Karen-W]

I love these costumes for the Peals, especially Elliana's dress!

 

[BlueRidge]

Hopefully this will not inspire more people to skate to ELO.

ELO are great!

So how is their training town Nashville but their coaches are IAM?

 

[PRlady]

I like ELO but that dance did nothing for me, especially after Cui/Rogers.

 

[her grace]

Peals

I feel like they need a lot more speed, theatrical expression from her, another team that could benefit from more international assignments

 

[peibeck]

Peals have nice flow, but omg this dance is terrible.

 

[BittyBug]

The Peals got the F-B/C treatment for their choreo steps.

 

[susieB129]

ELO, yes! That program ... No. "Steppin' Out" and "Big Wheels" are not skatin' music.

 

[BlueRidge]

ELO are great!

Not for ice dance!

 

[Aimless]

Obligatory rant that NBC shows the max amount of points available per element in dance and then the total achieved. Hence, every final score looks low in comparison. In the other disciplines, NBC puts the element’s point value before GOE is added and subtracted and then the second box shows the total earned with GOE, making the elements look more impressive. They should use that system for all disciplines.

It makes the actual GOE impossible to determine in real time, thereby obscuring it. Am I paranoid?

 

[Braulio]

Still guessing how to feel about this program

 

[Wyliefan]

Not for ice dance!

How soon we forget Grimmskiy.

You are not paranoid. That TES box is terrible. I would need a calculator and I don't want to do that!

 

[Karen-W]

So how is their training town Nashville but their coaches are IAM?

Probably hasn't been updated. They're definitely full-time in London now.

 

[slicekw]

A decent score for a good skate to ELO.

 

[BlueRidge]

Peals laughing with Scott and Madison in the KnC is a highlight!

 

[Lizziebeth]

is there just an ice make before the men start?? confusing schedule

 

[Karen-W]

is there just an ice make before the men start?? confusing schedule

Yes, there is.

 

[smurfy]

Did I see Elliana’s blue free skate dress on a pair lady yesterday??

 

[BlueRidge]

LOL Ashley sounding unintentionally lustful saying next up the first group of.. MEN!

 

[Carolla5501]

Have to spread this out since they charged to attend

So they need to clear the arena? Geez.

 

[Karen-W]

No, the arena isn't being cleared between the Dance Group 1 and Men's Group 1. They're just doing an ice resurface. The arena clear is after the Men's Group 1 are finished.

 

[Carolla5501]

So they need to clear the arena? Geez.

No it’s the same ticket

Arena clear would occur after men’s group 1

Whew! Emanuel is here!
