Nebelhorn Trophy 2024 - Pairs SP & FS

[Wyliefan]

Oh, it's the "I love yewwww" song.

 

[Rukia]

oh yay pairs dirges are back again

edited to add they heard my pleas and added a dance beat

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh my gosh, the "I love yewwww" song just picked up a peppy beat! What is this madness?

 

[Karen-W]

ChtWoz - dress is sleeveless black that ombres to burgundy on the skirt; he is in all black. "I Love You" by Woodkid; SBS jump issues; missed their twist; good throw 3; do these people have no one in their lives with any music knowledge? Hand down on the other throw. Did Woodkid record a club version of this song that they switched to? This is so weird and just bland and devoid of any personality other than "we're two nice people who skate together."

[Wyliefan]

Very pretty blue dress for Efimova

She always goes for simple costumes and they look really nice on her. However, I could do without the dark illusion in his shirt's deep V.

 

[Desperado]

Emo Je suis malade… and ouch.

 

[Rukia]

they keep adding more voices to be malade

 

[rfisher]

I see Efimova's jumps are still malade.

 

[Wyliefan]

This is a different Je Suis Malade and I ... kind of don't hate it? I'm getting an impression of a bunch of Parisians standing around in a cafe with an accordion and the wine flowing freely.

I'm malade about the jump and throw, though.

 

[Amy L]

Wait.... how many singers are they using for Je Suis Malade? That many people singing "I am sick" sounds like a mass contagion event.

 

[Rukia]

not trying to get ahead of myself but if they can get the jumps and throws under control they could be world medalists

but also lol I know what I'm saying there

Je Suis Malade, COVID edition.

 

[Karen-W]

EfiMit - sky blue slip dress with a bunch of crystals on the front & back center panels; denim blue blouse that changes to black at the bottom and cuffs, faux v-neck. "Je Suis Malade" - good 3tw; let's not talk about their SBS jumping passes, shall we? throw 3 - she loses the edge and goes down; beautiful lift; difficult sliding entrance into FODS; hand down on the other throw 3 - sooooo much air and speed. Sigh - so much potential and they'll probably skate it clean exactly once this season if we're lucky.

tbh that was the wackiest version of this song I've ever heard but like it also made me laugh every time we got a new voice

 

[Wyliefan]

This would be gorgeous if Efimova could just land stuff. It's kind of wild to me that someone as determined and gritty as she seems to be can't get those jumps nailed down.

Je Suis Malade performed by Forestella

Per their ISU bio - a version of this song that I don't hate, which is a rarity indeed.

That is the saddest thing I've ever read about pair skating.

 

[Belsornia]

Everything else about Efimova’s skating is so lovely I just have to close my eyes when she jumps.

 

[Karen-W]

How is Bandit's timing at insisting that I open up the patio door and let her enjoy the good weather while it lasts timed perfectly to the last group of any pairs competition? #firstworldcatladyproblems

 

[Karen-W]

She looks so sad in the KnC and I just want to hug her and tell her that we all believe in and love her so much.

 

[Wyliefan]

Oh, Deanna has an oceany dress a bit like Kimmy Repond's from yesterday. This is a trend I can get behind.

 

[Belsornia]

Ouch, behind Chtchetinina.

 

[Rukia]

I love this dress I hope Deanna is the ocean and she's about to drown someone

 

[Amy L]

Sequel of the mermaid murder program from the fun Finns?

 

[Rukia]

i don't understand anything about this program but that's fine it's a slay

 

[PRlady]

Hans Zimmer, The Blue Planet. At least it was upbeat. And they did well.

 

[Amy L]

i don't understand anything about this program but that's fine it's a slay

I see no mermaid murder, I am slightly disappoint.
