The Dance Hall 5: Ice Dance Fans 2017-2018

I’m like WTH is that upper body?!


Ditto!

I'm glad they're not in the final group. I thought they deserved lower but at least they're not in the final flight of teams. I missed Cappellini & Lanotte's performance but I saw their marks and was glad to see them push ahead of them!

 

[caseyedwards]

Geee, I thought Bobrova’s posture had improved a bit in the last years. But this dance just isn’t for her. Awful posture.

It’s the worst performance by a number one Russian ice dance team in Olympics Ice dance history!

First Russian champions not to win medal in pre Olympics worlds -first not to be in final group.

The team should’ve been dumped years ago. Should’ve found him a new partner.

I humbly disagree. Dom/Shabs were far worse in Vancouver 2010, but it is close.

But they medaled! Putting ice dance banner in bobrova/soloviev hands means no medal for Russia for the first time ever.

I think a lot of people have blocked their 2010 performances from their memory. So I think excluding them is a given!

Please Doms and Shabs were miles better than these two, Shabalin was just hampered by really awful knee problems.

As well as awful programs!

Linichuk for ya. I preferred when they were with Gorshkov.

Not the CD! Unless you think that was terrible too!

 

[Miloune]

Gabby and Guillaume were interviewed by French TV : they are EXTREMELY disappointed. Gabby is livid...

 

[gk_891]

Their CD was good. I would've had them second though behind V&M. The first pattern of their tango romantica was very nice but the second pattern didn't impress me as much.

But in general, I was referring to their OD and FD. But much more so with their OD.

Of course their OD was total garbage but at least they medaled! It says a lot about Russia’s feelings about ice dance and b/s that they fought so hard and desperately for d/s to medal but b/s not even in final group.

It's about time. They were gifted in 2010 and 2014 (I thought P/B and Weav/Poj should been ranked higher than I/K.)

Their OD was Ugh! Lol
But they were far better skaters (even in 2010) than these two ever were.

I appreciate B&S hard work and determination during all these years. But this is the worse Russian couple, I can remember, participating in the Olympics.
Sad for Russia, but not surprising. It has been coming since post Sochi.

It had to end eventually! They were really hanging on to those bronzes by their fingernails!! Now they can do total overhaul and reform and become North Americanized and join the dubreuil spiliband zueva school and fire the losers zhulin kustarova tarasova svinin shuk anti ijs hacks

Hard work and determination would’ve meant going to dubreuil or zueva or spiliband! Maybe krylova? By staying with a 6.0 coach they didn’t work hard as possible.

 

[AnaBM]

God bless Gaby, she sure as hell is strong... But those scores, I'm sorry but they feel like a joke.

Very true. I think for D&S, his knee problems and having L&K as their coaches did them in.

Take a breath. And find some punctuation.

Be careful what you wish for. It's either all exclamation points or nothing. I prefer nothing.

Re-posting here for reference:

There's a media advisory that covers all of this.
https://www.pyeongchang2018.com/en/...e-skating/media-information-report-n1314-.htm

"For the second segment of the event, the four judges not drawn for the first segment will automatically be assigned to be in the panel of nine judges for the second segment and all other judges serving already in the first segment will participate in the draw to complete the panel of nine judges for the second segment. Out of the nine judges drawn for each segment, the highest and lowest scores are deleted and the average will be taken from the remainder (trimmed mean)."

CHN ESP POL SVK will replace 4 of the 9 judges on SD panel (CAN FRA ISR ITA JPN RUS TUR UKR USA) for the FD panel.

F*ck Sharron Rogers.

All I have to say.

Gutsy performance by Gabriella in the SD tonight. She had a long way to go, and she gave it her all.

 

[chapis]

I noticed really fast the malfunction because the commentator on my stream started to do a little scandal about it. They did not stop talking about that for a second and remembering to Yura too.

She was amazing. It did affect their performance but man, what a champ for willing herself through the whole program!

 

[Miloune]

The longuest 2m50s of her life I'm sure...

 

[MRani]

Mad props to Gabriella. I just want to give her a hug for being so strong and handling that like a champion. And during her Olympic debut performance no less.

 

[kittysk8ts]

Total respect for her. She fought and it paid off.
