Slavik Kryklyvyy and Karina Smirnoff samba

[NaughtGinger]

Still my favorite samba video-no body beats these 2 at this stage of their partnership-group is even better than their samba solo on this same night-when comparing-check it out.

[Irinasdaddy]

Thumbs up if you liked the woman in the red clowning Slavik at the 44 second mark!

[NaughtGinger]

This is by far the best samba ever! watched hundreds others but these 2 nail the dance 2 perfection-so hot together-rocked it outta the park!

[BiscuiteRontaitor]

I AM NOT SURE BUT NUMER 168 IS MY BEST FRIEND!!!!

[suwaheli]

@BiscuiteRontaitor nr 168 is slavik kryklyvyy :D

[MrTenoros]

why did they stop dancing together? About the song: Ricky Martin- Maria

[BBOYDIMA1]

This is the best SAMBA i have seen :-O otschin horoscho

[BBOYDIMA1]

OOOOMMMMGGGGG TRAUM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[donesmoothly]

how do you pronounce the name kryklyvyy, does anyone know the phonetic?

[gingermist21]

@donesmoothly you asked how to say Slavik's last name? Split up it would be Crick-Lee-vi, or just pronounce the "v" instead of "vi" for the last part. That's how I've heard it pronounced over the years.

[6981487]

I don't like Elena's hair. She don't looks like a professional like Karina or Carmen.

[gingermist21]

@6981487 that's Karina not Elena.

[6981487]

@gingermist21 lol !!! I know, but look in the back , you can see Elena Grinenko. You can also see her clearly at 0:43

[gingermist21]

@6981487 oh I see what you mean. Yeah not very classy.

[Beatleschick1]

that girl in the peach at 0.45 was obviously taking some time out to flirt with Slavik. Focus woman! and focus on your partner.

[cherika35]

wow

[koki4encetyyy]

hiPer g0tinii :):)

[Rybosomak]

Maybe i'm wrong, but i can't see samba bounce in Karinas dance

[Caskader]

The choreography doesn't call for at lot of bounce, but her knees do seem a bit lazy at times

[BabyDe111]

what's with 0:44? the other dancer was touching Slavik.....right?

[aikenemmanuel]

i think that's yulia touching slavik. was it her?

[BabyDe111]

can't be sure.

[chamcham212]

No. That's Elena Grienko, not Yulia.

[emkeytube]

im not sure but I think number 11 was my teacher

[lastnightfridaynight]

They are Mr & Mrs Ohmura from Japan.

[sbulut77]

Haha. Did you what Slavik did at around 32sec? He put his hand behind him, meaning that his opponents are not worthy of his full effort!!! :)

[tboyka1]

0:15

[tbomit]

I like :45. That is so cool!

[araikldanceb]

ah...Karina...beautiful as always...and Slavik...such a man!

[pamela2888]

Damm...Slavik's new partnerships with Elena and Hanna aren't working out to be nearly as good as his with Karina.

They are fantastic together.

I know there's no way of them getting back together, but the beauty they created together will be remembered for a long time.

[araikldanceb]

agree

[catanthia]

Were they dating?

[carinebhg]

@pamela2888, i totally agree with u. When they where dancing togeghether, it was like if the belong together, in the sense on dance of course!!!!

[swidanza]

The song is Maria- Ricky Martin

[jckrypton]

Its one of Ricky Martins songs...Un dos tres, i think...

[BD3V354P]

what's the name of the song?

someone tell me plz..

[ashwee63]

yes thats elena grinenko and thats back when she danced latin with maksim she then switched over to american rhythm with tony d

[sandydee2001]

Looks like Maksim's partner got cheeky with Slavik at the 0:44 mark. Karina quickly pulled him away, good for her.

[sandydee2001]

Is that Elena? Is she not Tony Dovolani's partner? If it is Elena, then it is obvious that she was joking. Elena and Karina are good friends.

[gingermist21]

That's funny! Karina was like, get your own :)!

[araikldanceb]

she did not pull him over away that was simply the next step of their coreography...dancers just flirt with each other sometimes i flirt with dance males at competition sometimes as well but that doesn't mean i wanna steel them from their partners

[Hello945]

lol I love 00:43

[latinized]

which competition is it?

[DancerSanco]

Japan Championship.

[yourhotness]

I wish they were still dancing together. They would totally take Blackpool this year
