Picking a thread to post in, and I pick this one since it was started first, lol.

 

[skatfan]

Hey, someone asked when it would get going so I just started.. Thanks, Skatingguy for the order and judges!

 

[Kateri]

Wait, how long has Galit been a technical specialist?

 

[Karen-W]

So excited to see Lim/Quan's Latin RD! That bird-feathered backside of her skirt is EVERYTHING!

 

[skatingguy]

Good Morning Ted

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

ANL tiredddddddd

 

[Karen-W]

Factoid - this is Korea's FIRST time qualifying for WTT!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Oh my gosh if I were to doze off, can someone fax me when the queen is on!!!!!

 

[Karen-W]

ANL tiredddddddd

No sympathy - ANL shoulda been like Karen and napped this evening.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Wait, how long has Galit been a technical specialist?

I’ve seen her before, what I haven’t seen is this first ice dance team

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

No sympathy - ANL shoulda been like Karen and napped this evening.

oh I did and I set my alarm clock for 11:45 PM, how whacked is this?

 

[Karen-W]

I’ve seen her before, but I haven’t seen is this first ice dance team

Not true. I know you watched Jr Worlds. They won silver there.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Not true. I know you watched Jr Worlds. They won silver there.

oh yeah you’re right I watch the junior Grand Prix and I think I asked you about them back in September or something. I’m so tired.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

lmao. I just looked at who is all in this thread there’s not even one row of people, they were more people in here for cranberry.

 

[Karen-W]

I must say, I've come to really love WTT, just like I love the TE in the Olys. I adore seeing the teams deck out their team booths with all of their cheesy, patriotic party decor.

 

[Jay42]

Especially considering this is a new RD for Lim & Quan that's very impressive.

 

[skatingguy]

Hannah Lim/Ye Quan, Republic of Korea
Don't Go Yet, Havannah By Camila Cabello

SqTwW4+SqTwM4
MiStW3+MiStM3
Pattern Dance Sequence 1
Choreo Rhythm Sequence
Rotational Lift 4

For a program that is only a few weeks old that was pretty good. Can't wait to see them with a full summer to train their senior programs next season.

69.96 = 1st Place

 

[Karen-W]

I know they were fully focused on juniors this season, but Lim/Quan are one of the few teams I wish had done a split season - even if only just one senior B to get the TES mins for Sr Worlds.

 

[Marta24]

That was great! Nearly 40 for the TES

 

[Kateri]

I know they were fully focused on juniors this season, but Lim/Quan are one of the few teams I wish had done a split season - even if only just one senior B to get the TES mins for Sr Worlds.

I know, right? Is this their first senior event? (even if it maybe doesn't count as a "real" event)

 

[skatingguy]

I know they were fully focused on juniors this season, but Lim/Quan are one of the few teams I wish had done a split season - even if only just one senior B to get the TES mins for Sr Worlds.

I think it's just too hard for any team to consider, particularly in only their 2nd season together, given the vastly different requirements between the junior & senior rhythm dances.

 

[Karen-W]

It's really exciting to see how the #2 team from Jr Worlds measures up against the senior field. It will give us an early indication of where we can likely expect those 4 top junior teams to slot in at the senior level next season.

 

[Bunny Hop]

Came in half way through Korea. Mr Bunny Hop said "Who's skating?" and I replied "Ummmm". But they did pretty good, particularly if that's a new program!

BTW Aussies - YouTube feed is NOT blocked for us (presumably as it's not showing on SBS).

 

[Karen-W]

One last time with this awesome RD from KanaDai! Go ahead, haterz, complain about his dancer skating skillz until the sun don't shine, they give so much face in this program and it's awesome!

 

[skatingguy]

Kana Muramoto/Daisuke Takahashi, Japan
Conga Is Gonna Get You, Ahora, Move

Choreo Rhythm Sequence
SqTwW4+SqTwM4
Pattern Dance Sequence 3 - she had a balance check at the end of the sequence
MiStW2+MiStM3
Rotational Lift 4

A couple of small issues from her this time. Great performance quality.

78.38 = 1st Place (72.92 at Worlds)

 

[Karen-W]

LOL - let's see if that L4 on Dai's twizzles holds up on review. I mean, y'all know I don't care either way because I love this RD, but that was wobbly to the naked, no-teknik eye of mine.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

I think I hear rain outside my window
