Skate America 2024 Pairs SP - Dallas* Flyers Club

[Firedancer]

Ted says Shae Lynn choreographed.

That explains a lot

 

[Matryeshka]

Yes Ted this was special, sans quotation marks. I love this arrangement and it works well for them, and it makes me think of Fumie.

I’m a terrible fan. I was semi paying attention until the Brits, as Lewis Gibson came and sat with me and we were chatting it up.

M/K are so so so good in this program. They finally have at least one program that totally works for them. I like the Georgian pairs program even if it’s Guillaume and Gabby-lite.

 

[Aaron MB Fan]

Masterclass from Riku and Ryuichi showing everyone how it gets done. Wow!! I am undecided on this program. I know most complain about their past programs and music choices. I liked the music at first, lost me a bit in the middle but built well at the end and I was back in.

Huge crowd reaction with a standing ovation. For a second I thought I was back in Canada

 

[peibeck]

So is Hungarian.

Be quiet, you don't teach English!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Guys I'm gonna go out on a limb and bet this goes into first.

You're gonna be amazed at my clairvoyance.

 

[MacMadame]

I'm going to sound like a Pollyanna, but this was an amazingly well-skated event!

The level of pairs across the board has really stepped up from just a couple of seasons ago.

(Maybe the LPs will be a disaster. We'll see. )

The longer programs generally are messier. In all the disciplines.

 

[genevieve]

That arrangement of Paint It Black was so cinematic, I was expecting Darth Vader's ship to enter the top of my screen. But it works for them - that was so great!

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Julie is not listed as their choreographer for either program this year - this one is Shea-Lynn and the FS is Marie-France

I stand by my joke.

 

[Karen-W]

Bruno finally figured out that ditching his sister for choreo for his top pairs team was the direction to go and I cannot complain, lol.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Okay, I have like 18 minutes to shower.

 

[Belsornia]

Pairs GP events are over so quickly!

 

[MacMadame]

See you in the Women's SP thread!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Pairs GP events are over so quickly!

Remember when I was 10 teams for the Grand Prix

Get the portrait out of the attic, @tony You look younger than Lewis.

I know! It's the only thing I don't like about the GPs! Need more pairs!!!!

 

[Desperado]

The CBC Gem app cut Ted in mid-sentence but YT didn’t.

[Karen-W]

LMAO - Ted's calling MetBeru's SP costumes & music "kind of a bold choice" in the top 3 wrap up. Indeed, Ted, you keep doing your nice, Canadian self, we all know that "bold" is a euphemism for "tacky" here.

I have been hoping someone would use this from Netflix's Wednesday. I'm glad it was them because they did it justice.

I prefer to use the ISU YouTube rather than any restreaming (and my TV likes it too)

Thank god they are tested out with ShaeLynn this season. Bodes well for the Olympic season and 100% the move they needed to make. Shae Lynn is a fabulous choreographer, most of her work just hits right.

 

[peibeck]

I'm going to sound like a Pollyanna, but this was an amazingly well-skated event!

I agree; let's pray it continues with the free. I think a lot of teams realize how important this season is in making an impact before the Olympic season.

 

[myhoneyhoney]

Ordered pizza. Ready to switch to the ladies!

 

[skatfan]

Shae seems to do well with Power skaters - love this program and finally their costumes are put to snuff and her hair looks sleek too.

 

[BaileyCatts]

I don't like the required Death Spiral this year. It looks sloppy to me.

 

[peibeck]

USFS needs you in a "We make skating better" commercial a la Nicole Kidman and AMC.

 

[PRlady]

I go to Germany next week and my Peacock app won’t work out of the USA, I pay for it. Why cant I use it?

I use VPN in Israel. If you travel a lot it’s worth the cost.

And the Japanese are back after a tough season. Between them and the Germans this year. Sorry, Deanna.
