2026 US Nationals Rhythm Dance "Groove Is In the Snark"

[canbelto]

Wow I loved that! That was awesome!!!

 

[tony]

Hate the rotational lift. HATE.

 

[Belsornia]

Third time’s the charm for CPom and RD costumes.

Imagine being married to whoever you were dating at 17...

we’re still married…

 

[slicekw]

US Oly team going to have at least a couple of Nepo Oly Babies.

 

[canbelto]

This RD has improved a lot since the beginning of the season, that's for sure.

 

[tony]

this is rough. Very. Twizzles his stepped down early first set, second set they were all over the place in distance.

I’d have it lower than green and parsons for sure but it won’t be.

 

[Wyliefan]

Okay, I can breathe again.

 

[Allen]

Johnny is actually right...none of these skaters are old enough to have go to the Limelight in 1992 and have that true idea of what it was like...and it shows...which neither am I...but I was there is 99 lol

 

[Braulio]

I lacked energy and more vibes from them during the last portion of the program, felt like they were tentative and not maximizing those GOE bonus for You and I

 

[Kasey]

Kinda hate that RD by CarPom. No idea why but it doesn’t set well with me

 

[Karen-W]

Well, that is a solid improvement over the GP season - the costumes really are much better and the skating looked stronger. TES is excellent for solidifying their spot on the Olympic team. I can breathe.

 

[her grace]

Carriera/Ponomarenko

Very nice from them, she’s a star and he looked a lot less stiff than during the GP, good competitive mettle as always

 

[peibeck]

C/P: strong but not attacking like Emilia and Vadim did.

 

[Allen]

C/P looked like two people who thought they were going to the opera and ended up at the stonewall inn and decided to give it go.

 

[Wyliefan]

I thought the costumes were a little too dark for them. But the energy was good and they looked like they were having fun with it.

 

[PRlady]

It was pretty good but seemed sedate after Z/K. Surprisingly Anthony got a 4 on his twizzles, he made a mistake.

 

[Wyliefan]

Skate fast, you two, I gotta get to my Zoom music lesson.

 

[Karen-W]

Christina looks just a wee bit relieved at that score. We all are, Christina, we all are!

 

[skatingcheckers]

Well luckily for you they only have one competition left in the amateur careers after Nationals.

I’m tired of C/B…. There, said it

 

[her grace]

this is rough. Very. Twizzles his stepped down early first set, second set they were all over the place in distance.

I’d have it lower than green and parsons for sure but it won’t be.

I liked G/P better, too. But C/P have had their number internationally for years so BOW bonus.

CPom had some fight, but they lost momentum at the end after slowing for the pattern step. And the rotational lift from standstill to open is a bizarre choreographical choice.

TBH both they and Green/Parsons looked better than on the GP, but both RDs are underwhelming compared to what they’ve had in recent seasons.

 

[slicekw]

Are Chock/Bates as fast in RL with this as they look on camera?

 

[Kasey]

I love Lenny Kravitz. But I hate this program

 

[PRlady]

This is just ok. Really, I’d have Z/K ahead of them but it won’t happen.

 

[tony]

These scores are criminal. And I’ll tell you almost every dancer who was in the earlier groups is in my row and the row in front of mine and I don’t think they are impressed that much either.

Midline both level 4? Twizzles almost maxed out? NO.

 

[Baby Yoda On Skates]

Death by a thousand music cuts...

 

[floridaice]

CPom have probably been spending more time on the Free Dance recently, neglected the RD a little

 

[Allen]

Still can't stand that program, but they skated well.
