Many of the couples just skate the steps roughly to the beat of the music, but these two are right on with all of the steps! I LOVE it! I really miss the compulsory dances :( but I understand why they were done away with. Unfortunately, it also messed up the original dances! However, since I am just a spectator I no doubt don't understand the intricacies of such decisions (and no, I'm not being sarcastic). Oh well.
@lovewalk9 i agree with you! But unfortunately figure skating is not a very popular sport in italy, like in North America, or even in Europe, also because there is very little interest in it from the media and national television, especially, and the coverage of the events of figure skating is very poor, almost always, the events are broadcast late at night, deferred, and often only on satellite or digital terrestrial. Only the competitions during the Olympics usually are broadcast live so
@lovewalk9: And it IS the compulsories. Sorry to say, but it's just not that interesting for the viewer, though sometimes the entire event can be determined by this segment. The new short dance variant, however, might a good compromise between the compulsories and the original dance. We'll see...
