The girl's awkwardness is strange for this level.There's no tension in her posture or elegance in the way she holds herself her transitions are strange her legs and feet always look loose.Her partner has much cleaner lines.Too bad cause they have great speed have the technical stuff down and technically work great together.Not much emotional connection though.And in an event where the man "presents" the woman for the most part, the sloppiness of her lines kind of spoils it, which is a pity.

All I can say is: This is SO damn boring.

I really don't mind if I get critisized for this, but what I've seen by all the american and canadian pairs and even elsewhere is nothing new, we've all seen programms like this before. Damn, people, these are the Olympics! Where is the spirit? Where is the innovaton? People don't pay those high ticket prizes to go to the opera! All I can see is the hunting for the next best high level. Damn, I really really hope that ice-dancing will change one day -.-

I wish they wore these costumes to the Olympics.

Ben is a very good skater. I don't care for Tanith much. That's why I am not in love with this pair.

@BeeVan19 I still don't think that the music is the real issue here: I love classical music, I'm simply saying that if I want to "just" listen to music I actually go to the opera, not to the rink. The music can be fine but I also want to see the skating. Ave Maria or Lady Gaga aren't a problem when the skating is a high level. Here, their skating is really not at high level, so I pay the ice dance ticket but I'm just listening to some good (or not) music, and it's not what I've paid for.

@AstridSGarcia Dube/Davidson are a pair skating team, not ice dancing couple

[BeeVan19]

@Porporinablu Why can't people just appreciate a classic art for what it is? Like, they obviously like the piece they are skating to and it is easier to get into a classical piece in ice dance than Lady Gaga...

@BeeVan19 I don't really think he was criticizing the opera. Just pointing out that are two different things: if I pay a high priced ticket to go to the opera I want to see the opera, but if I pay a high ticket to see ice dance, I want to see ice dance. Try to read before answering...
