Love it. This is what you call dance. V/M all tye way.

[cahmilllex]

such deceptively difficult transitions. full stop right before a spin and so many changes of hold while showing the character of the music

Yeah, I think Davis and White have them beat in the FD, but Virtue/Moir have an edge in the SD. When do they compete against each other this season? Should be exciting!

Очень артистичная пара. Особенно партнёр. Постоянно по-актёрски находится "в образе". Это дорогого стоит. А катание необычайно слаженное, синхронное. Смотрела с удовольствием.

@SuperSamahan Yep. DANCE. Moving the body gracefully and in harmony with the rhythm of the music, the heartbeat of dance. This sport calls itself ice dance and if a sport dares to associate itself with the art of dance, it better bring on the dance, or at least 50% into it. :) If choosing a less audience-friendly music will cost VM the title, I still love the fact that it is their dancing that is drawing the audience into their music instead of using the music to carry them to the audience.

Davis and White's program is better this year.

@Neejaqueen lol no

Aw, it's so sweet they went with Funny Face =D! V/M move so effortlessly  together because of of their technique and skating with deep edges. So glad to see them back and lined up to do Grand Prix circuits, Nationals and Worlds.

It's easy for some to criticize V/M because they're currently one of the biggest known ice dancing pairs and won Olympic Gold. They forget how tough V/M's road has been because of Tessa's injuries and rather talk about how "overrated" they are.

@waihibeach09 IA. D/W's program was kind of generic. They skated it very well but still don't connect to the music and to each other. They skate very fast but aren't graceful.
