JGP Lake Placid Free Dance

Allik/Bellantuono, EST: 55.91 Total: 93.15

• She has a wonderful leg line
• Nice flip up to a lift behind his head with a change of position to laying on his leg while he's in a spread eagle
• Good timing and distance between them on the twizzles
• A little choppy in places on their first step sequence--they need to really get in their edges and push across the ice
• Beautiful Biellman position right into a lift with her wrapped around his neck and good speed on the rotation
• Back walkover onto his foot with her in a Biellman position but it seems like she may have hopped off early
• A little off on some of their turns in their second step sequence and her leg line doesn't always match his
• Only one position in the spin so they won't receive as many points
• Nice final rotational lift with her in a stag position over his shoulder but it looks like he's having trouble hanging on to her after the change of position

Aghai/Partanen, FIN: 61.60 Total: 99.91

• I'm not sure I'm in love with the red illusion mesh on her costume but otherwise I like the look of it although the long pieces that keep getting caught between her legs are making me nervous
• They traveled too close togehter on the twizzles and he had to put his foot down to avoid a collision
• I really like her presence on the ice and she has a fire in her eyes that really accentuates this program
• Neat rotational lift starting with her being held straight up and down and moving through two changes of position
• There is a nice ease in all of their change of holds 
• Nice lift with him in a spread eagle and holding her foot in the air while she balances in a haircutter but his spread eagle position could be wider
• I really love the way she uses her arms in this dance spin and uses them fully down to her wrist and finger movements
• I'd like to see them have closer matching leg lines and more stretch through their free legs in this second step sequence; they had a little bobble on a change of hold but got back into it
• Spread eagle lift with her standing on his feet and arching back
• Rotational lift with her being held by her arms but it seems like they're having a little trouble getting out of it

Tessari/Clafato, ITA: 44.47 Total: 79.56

• Haircutter rotational lift seemed slightly slow
• Very far apart on their twizzles but traveling very close together by the end and off on their unison
• I'm not in love with the gree under her skirt but I like the satin sheen as it differentiates her white dress from the ice
• They seem to have trouble getting back into the holds after the turns in the step sequence and are not pushing through their edges
• Decent dance spin but losing speed
• Handstand on his foot with a position change onto his legs while he's in a spread eagle
• Spread eagle curve lift with her wrapped around his waist and suspended over the ice
• They seem to be very off on their unison in this step sequence and I'd like to see better matching leg lines and their knees down into the ice 
• They could have had more power and intensity at the ending to really sell the ending of the POTO story

Yermak/Khimich, UKR: 56.06 Total: 101.08

• Nice stretch from her in the spread eagle lift with him holding her in the air in a Biellman
• Better edge work and unison in their leg line but they seem a little far apart in some of their holds
• One some of their transitional footwork I'd like to see them really go for it instead of just going through the movements
• Travelling apart during the twizzles but good unison
• He could stretch through his free leg on the dance spin and they could have more speed and a smoother change of direction
• She needs more stretch through her leg line in the second step sequence and she seems to be overly anticipating the change of holds instead of just letting them happen
• Nice jump with a twist into his arm for the one arm rotational lift

Heritage/Fast, USA: 60.88 Total: 102.81

• A few little bobbles on the twizzles but good unison
• One arm rotational lift with her in a catchfoot and a nice exit
• Beautiful spread eagle lift with her leg hooked around his shoulder and leaning back; I especially love her use of arms
• Really nice long leg lines and easy strokes across the ice in this step sequence with fast, easy changes of hold
• Nice changes of position in their dance spin but they've completely stopped by the end
• Lost the feed for their second step sequence
• Nice intricate changes of position in their straight line lift
• I really like their connection with this music and with each other in this program and I see a lot of improvement in this team

Pogrebinsky/Gudis, USA: 64.32 Total: 109.73

• She has lovely expression and a nice presence on the ice
• Flip un into a nice fast rotational lift with changes of position
• Nice timing on their twizzles but they get so close to each other in the 2nd set
• She has such long legs but I'm not sure she knows what to do with them yet as she doesn't always fully stretch through her leg
• Nice ease through their dance spin with good positions and easy changes of direction and nice speed throughout
• Great posture in their step sequence but a little bobbly on some of the changes of hold
• Nice one leg straight line lift with her bent back over the ice
• A little bobble on their shoot the duck in a transition movement
• A little awkward in some of these changes of position in the lift
• While their bodies seem a little tentative in places in the step sequence none of that shoes on their faces
• Overall they are a very young team and show a lot of promise and just have some polishing work to do to compete with the best

Bruser/Lum, CAN: 67.61 Total: 110.67

• A little wild on their twizzles and their unison suffered a bit
• Her Pirates costume is almost identical to Meryl's POTO costume
• Good matching leg lines and speed through their step sequence but she could work on her posture in places and not hunching over when she kicks her leg
• Nice straight line lift with a flip over him 
• Kick over hi head into a curve lift with him in a spread eagle position
• Interesting changes of position in their dance spin with a nice ease and good speed maintained throughout
• They seem to be getting good edges but are still choppy in their second step sequence
• She needs more flexibility in the split rotational lift as her legs aren't hitting 180 degrees

Aldridge/Eaton, USA: 83.32 Total: 136.80

• I LOVE her dress.  It's a pinkish/ivory with short sleeves and a lace back and a layered skirt
• She has such natural expression on the ice and they both really seel their programs and commit to the movement instead of just going through the movements
• Great ease in their position changes in the straight line spread eagle lift
• Great posture and use of her arms and upper body through this step sequence with nice speed
• Good edges and nice matching leg lines in their step sequence as well
• Beautiful double camel spin and nice change of position through their dance spin
• Good curve spread eagle lift with her arched back over the ice
• Great character in some of the transitional movements of this program--nice choreography
• Solid set of three twizzles with great speed and nice timing
• Nice changes of hold in their second step sequence with good edge work
• Haircutter rotational lift and she could have more stretch through her free leg
• Very solid program, nicely done!

Morozora/Zhirnov, RUS: 64.27 Total: 111.49

• She misses her blade on the jump into the first set of twizzles and takes a hard fall
• They seem to recover nicely and complete the next two sets of twizzles
• They both have nice extension in their legs and good matching lines through their first step sequence
• Leg around his head and a flip up to a haircutter hold for her in the spread eagle lift
• A little bit awkward getting up into their second lift but a beautiful arched position for her
• Nice positions in their dance spin with an awkward change of position
• Good speed in the rotational spin with a nice change of position but a little difficulty getting out of it
• A difficult edge sequence at the beginning of their second footwork sequence and nicely done
• Nice serpentine lift with him in a spread eagle and changing edges in the middle
• Great recovery after that fluke fall in the first seconds of the program

Kosigina/Moroshkin, RUS: 75.80 Total: 135.24

• Some hip hop moves to open up their Michael Jackson program
• Nice flip into their first rotational lift
• Good twizzles
• I'm really not crazy with their cuts and remixes of this music--they detract more than they add to the program
• Very nice edges in their footwork but they seem a little slow
• She needs more flexibility in their straight line lift with her standing on his blade and it looks like she fell out of it early
• She needs to watch her wrist in the step sequences as it sometimes just dangles there and breaks the arm line
• The feed went out through the middle of their program
• While they are technically good in comparison their program seems a bit more junior than Aldridge and Eaton's with some of the choreography and the music cuts

Poulin/Servant, CAN: 68.76 Total: 114.71

• Very nice edges in their step sequence and good matching leg lines; they both have such nice posture and carriage as well
• Nice flip up into a straight line lift with good changes of position
• Nice speed in the dance spin with good positions
• I really like the classic look of their costumes but I'm not sure I understand their music
• Good timing on their twizzles but very slow
• Curve lift with him in a nice deep spread eagle and her arched over the ice
• She bobbles on a turn in their step sequence and they lose a second or two
• He has a tad better stretch in his legs and she is losing her posture a bit at the end of this routine

JGP Lake Placid Dance Preview

Aldridge and Eaton took home two medals on the Junior Grand Prix last season and qualified for their first Junior Grand Prix Final where they just missed the podium.  After winning the U.S. Junior title they landed on the podium at the Junior World Championships.  They earned acclaim for their Lord of the Dance free skate last year and will try and replicate their success with a Fiddler on the Roof program.

Kosigina and Moroshkin lost ground among the Russian junior teams last season, dropping to 5th nationally and failing to make the Junior Worlds team despite their two medals on the JGP.  With such a deep field, they'll have to step it up this season if they want to be in the top 3 in Russia.

Bruser and Lum are a young Canadian team that did well at their lone assignment last season.  They placed 3rd as juniors at Canadian nationals.  Morozova and Zhirnov also did well at their only event last season but didn't reach the medal podium.

Pogrebinsky and Gudis are making their international debut at this event.  They placed 8th as juniors last season in the U.S. but have made improvements over the summer and defeated Aldridge and Eaton at a summer competition.  They're a dark horse for a medal at this event.

JGP Estonia Dance Preview

The teams here are very close in scores and the littlest bobble could make the difference between the gold medal and not making the podium.  Yankovskaia and Mozgov took home the bronze medal from Poland.  Kosigina and Moroshkin won the silver medal at the first event in Latvia.  Bent and MacKeen won bronze in Romania.  Papadakis and Cizeron finished just off the podium in 4th in Poland.

This is another event with multiple qualification scenarios for the Junior Grand Prix Final.  Papadakis/Cizeron, Kosigina/Moroshkin, Yankovskaia/Mozgov and Bent/MacKeen can all qualify with a gold medal.  Kosigina/Moroshkin can also qualify with a silver.  Any other color medal requires a set of circumstances to be met.

If Papadakis and Cizeron win, Kosigina/Moroshkin can qualify with a silver medal.  They can also qualify with a bronze medal if anyone besides Yankovskaia/Mozgov or Bent/Mackeen win silver AND they score above 135.80 points.  Yankovskaia/Mozgov can qualify with a silver medal AND a score above 133.32.  Bent/MacKeen can qualify with a silver medal AND a score above 134.35.

If Kosigina and Moroshkin win, Yankovskaia/Mozgov can qualify with a silver medal AND a score above 133.32.  Bent/MacKeen can qualify with a silver medal AND a score above 134.35.

If Yankovskaia and Mozgov win, Kosigina and Moroshkin can qualify with a silver medal.  Bent/MacKeen can qualify with a silver medal AND a score above 134.35.

If Bent and MacKeen win,  Kosigina and Moroshkin can qualify with a silver medal.  Bent/MacKeen can qualify with a silver medal AND a score above 134.35.

If someone else besides these four teams wins gold, Kosignina/Moroshkin can qualify with a silver medal.  They can also qualify with a bronze medal if anyone besides Yankovskaia/Mozgov or Bent/Mackeen win silver AND they score above 135.80 points.  Yankovskaia/Mozgov and Bent/MacKeen can both qualify with a silver.

Sinitsina and Zhiganshin of Russia, Stepanova and Bukin of Russia, Nosulia and Kholoniuk of Ukraine and Galyeta and Shumski of Ukraine have already qualified.  If one of the teams competing do not meet the point or medal requirements, Aldridge and Eaton of the United States will get the spot.

My podium predictions:
Gold: Yankovskaia/Mozgov
Silver: Papadakis/Cizeron
Bronze: Kosigina/Miroshkin
