1) Meagan Duhamel & Eric Radford (Canada) **
Music:
- I completely missed this program!
- I will comment on it later when the live competition is over
- SP Score: 29.08 (technical) + 25.72 (presentation) = 54.80
Music: Zorba's Dance
- They have nice energy and speed across the ice
- The catch on the twist was rough
- The entrance into the lift was a little off
- She takes a fall on the throw
- I don't like these upside down death spiral positions, they are unbecoming for the woman
- Good recovery with some nice footwork
- SP Score: 29.68 (technical) + 25.00 (presentation) - 1.00 (deduction) = 53.68
3) Paige Lawrence & Rudy Swiegers (Canada)
Music: City Slickers soundtrack
- I can already tell that they are very theatrical performers
- Hand down on the first side-by-side jumps
- The exit from the first lift was gorgeous
- She touched the ground in the death spiral, not sure how I feel about that
- She totally saved the landing on that throw
- SP Score: 31.74 (technical) + 24.40 (presentation) = 56.14
4) Britney Simpson & Nathan Miller (USA)
Music: The Pink Panther
- 14 & 22, quite the age difference
- I love her pink costume so much and it fits the piece
- Nice clean side-by-side jumps
- That was a low catch on the twist
- She two-footed the landing on the throw and barely saved it
- Some loss of unison on the side-by-side combination spin
- This footwork lacks some flair I think
- The lift was very nice
- SP Score: 23.98 (technical) + 22.41 (presentation) = 46.39
Music: Money by Pink Floyd
- Pretty solid side-by-side jumps
- That was actually a very clean twist, even by my standards
- Definitely out of sync on those spins, they need to clean that up if they want to compete with the best in the world
- That throw was CRAZY high, it reminded me of the chinese throwing the girls over couches
- That overhead lift in the leg catch position was ahmaaaazing!
- This team certainly has some awesome elements and great hilights to their programs
- SP Score: 32.96(technical) +23.38 (presentation) =56.34
Music: The Marriage of Figaro
- Nice Sid-by-side jumps
- The throw was amazing
- They cover the ice with so much speed
- I didn't like the catch on their twist
- They lost a lot of speed in their death spiral
- They are a bit out of sync in the side-by-side spins
- That one-handed lift was impressive, but the exit was a bit clunky for me
- SP Score: 34.03 (technical) + 26.69 (presentation) = 60.72
Music:
- SP Score: 23.27 (technical) + 20.23 (presentation) = 43.50
Music:
- SP Score: 22.92 (technical) + 20.61(presentation) = 43.53
