plus the schedule (gmt+2):

[rinoluxaeterna]

yeah they only stream seniors and even those are compilations, not the full competition 🙃

(I do hope we still get to see all senior ice dancers, I'm curious about daniela and matthew)

They will have full streams of Saturday and Sunday on Ruutu, you need the Ruutu+ Urheilu but you can get one week for free!

“I feel like many look at skating as a very confined sport- you do what's accepted by judges. It’s all about breaking barriers and pushing [your] comfort zone, being different. It’s hard to see different in this sport sometimes.” -Andrew Torgashev, on style of movement in his sp

Thanks @odettewagner for telling me that the Icebreaker novel name drops the quad lutz on page two.

Not a quad twist or quad throw salchow (rare and difficult but possible), but a straight up quad lutz in a pairs routine.

And judging by the text, they're apparently doing the quad lutz side-by-side so pardon my French, but what? Like damn if this man can do a flawless quad lutz then quit pairs and do singles, seriously.

I know that ppl reading this book are probably reading it for the spice and romance, but can you forgive an FS girlie for picking up this book thinking it'd be about FS?

Juulia Turkkila/Matthias Versluis free dance at Budapest Trophy 2024 (116.67)

Yuka Orihara/Juho Pirinen free dance at Budapest Trophy 2024 (108.25)

[shikoos]

Thoughts on the free dances:

Pirihara: I liked it, but not as much as Chicago (at first viewing). They didn't seem to go full out until the very end, a bit careful. It will probably grow on me as the season progresses.

Turkkila/Versluis: Super promising! Clearly needs a lot of work still, some parts were a bit awkward and slow to get into the lifts etc. but I liked what was there. I especially loved how much it felt like a tango. Highlights included the new lift, the step sequence in hold with the swings right on music, and the final character sequence. (Also Matthias, please fix your twizzles, it's not good for my heart.)

Choreographed by Monica Lindfors, Matias' older sister & choreographer for the Team MayerVirtanen.

«Honestly, he has a new fan. I cannot wait to watch him as he grows. Even though, it <that day's performance technically> was, obviously, a disappointing moment, but I'm behind him 100℅ and I cannot wait to see how his season unfolds», — Jason Brown's commentary
