Moving over from Kaunas to Calgary but still dancing

If Kaitlyn Weaver can't type "twizzles" without getting autocorrected, what hope is there for the rest of us?

TWIDDLES, I am dying

Kaitlyn, if you're reading this, please work "twiddles" into the conversation today as much as possible.

I have CBC Gem on my TV and it’s so dark and awful after the perfect and bright streaming from Euros. This Canadians seems so dismal in general.

Charlie Anderson / Luke Anderson - Waterways (Einaudi)/I Won't Give Up (Mraz)

Thank you for the clear music info.

 

[Aceon6]

Team Not Related pleasant enough for a qualifier. And as much as I complain about dirges in ice dance, they needed it to be able to execute as well as they could.

Daily Motion is more mid winter afternoon than CBC’s almost dusk.

Team Not Related? Thanks for that info.

I'm so happy that this is on Daily Motion I keep watching more FDs! It's nice to see teams I've never heard of.

 

[JoannaLouise]

Very cool spinning move from Robinson/Portz, with her in the splits.

 

[Aceon6]

@shan It was a joke leftover from last night. They’re Anderson and Anderson, not the Andersons as we might use for siblings or marrieds.

 

[Wyliefan]

Dude, your diction. Sounds like "Grandma and I'm drowning."

 

[Aceon6]

RobPor otoh, seem capable of handling better than their dirge opener. I find them to be pretty expressive for their level.

Alyssa Robinson / Jacob Portz - Trauma/Birds Set Free (Sia)

first song might be from Pans Labyrinth, but as I dropped the tv remote and the batteries went flying so had to go digging under the couch to retrieve them, who knows. Best guess.

 

[Wyliefan]

Not everyone can get away with brown, but I kind of like it on G/T.

 

[Aceon6]

Oh lovely, mumble mouth Woodkid. GauThi could be the second coming of PapCiz, but they lose me with the music. I think RobPor’s program flowed better.

Sandrine Gauthier / Quentin Thieren - Iron/Iron 2021/Run Boy Run (Woodkid)

 

[JoannaLouise]

I think this program is a little too heavy for Gauthier/Thieren. But I guess their first year as seniors is a reasonable time to try a new style.

 

[Wyliefan]

Kaitlyn, you know perfectly well they got the waacking from Pap/Ciz and couldn't care less about Harlem artists. Don't be coy.

 

[victorskid]

After the first of 3 groups:
1 Alyssa Robinson / Jacob Portz AB/NT/NU 61.61 (10) 95.96 (1) 157.57
2 Sandrine Gauthier / Quentin Thieren QC 61.91 (9) 92.90 (2) 154.81
3 Charlie Anderson / Luke Anderson ON 44.23 (11) 73.84 (3) 118.07

Haley Sales / Nikolas Wamsteeker - POTO

mainly All I ask of you by Groban and Clarkson

 

[Wyliefan]

Some nice lifts there. They could have used the crescendo in the music better.

 

[Aceon6]

Not bad for skipping 3 months of training.

 

[Desperado]

In my house, it’s known as FPOTO, but S&W did a lovely job nonetheless with wonderful lifts.

Very glad that they are back.

 

[JoannaLouise]

I like POTO

 

[Alilou]

If POTO happened these days he'd be given a restraining order for being a stalker. Creepy.

 

[skategal]

I liked that despite the fact that it was POTO.

They do romantic very well.

 

[Wyliefan]

If POTO happened these days he'd be given a restraining order for being a stalker. Creepy.

Yeah, that's kind of the point.

 

[Desperado]

Nikolas looks like someone beat him up but it’s apparently Svavorski (sp?) scars.

 

[skategal]

Great twiddles! Haha!
