I have the same prayer... poklon

Because if they will to FGP, it is because they have a good rank at TEB !!! :vo:

By the way, I am looking for "On s'tourne autour" for you (I read on another thread you want it) I thought I have more chances to find it in France than in Russia, but nothing at all for the moment... nooo

Isa and Olivier have not had the results they should have because the French Federation is still 'paying' for the win of Marina and Gwendal in SLC 2002. Shocked

For sure A&P were the best in 2002 anyway, but the FFSG will be made to pay for several more years. I would be very surprised if Isa/Olivier EVER get the results they deserve - I hope I am wrong, but I think this is true pale

Ice dancing is an incredibly complicated sport behind-the-scenes, and nothing will ever change. It always will be as it is. We just have to enjoy what we see and not worry too much I think. lol!

As for the gloves I don't know specifically, but Muriel B-Z had had ideas about this program for several years.

It's time for me too to say something about them Very Happy

I think Isa & Olivier deserved a medal at the Worlds, I don't know why the judges left them 5th. But there were so many concurrents ...
This idea with the gloves was very original. If I remember well, our comentators said it was Isa's idea, or her sister's Very Happy

I bet you agree with me on this one. Very Happy

Any doubts??? Suspect

Ice-dancing is a special kind of figure skating.. it's amazing itself.. :stari:

that's why there are so many adorable couples.. :dube:

You can just enjoy watching the competition.. :stari:

Awww..

So true!! I agree. When I was little I was mesmerized by ice-dancing. I was very impressed. I remember some rock'n'roll dances. I remember the exact moment. I was at my grandparents and I was watching tv. I asked them very nicely not to be angry on me cause I don't spend that time with them. poklon

And then... Sad

I forgot about figure-skating Sad

Not sure why :cryy:

I re-discovered this sport many years after. And from then on, I had priority in january, february or march. Everyone knows that I'm absolutely in love with this sport (even if it's not fair all the time) and that I can't really do something else..I have to watch

It's very beautiful!! :stari:

I'm just sad that I have so little years "experience" but very happy that I got to know Albena and Maxim.

I wish you all a beautiful day/evening

Those were the best parts..very interesting and original. Very poetic and artistic... :vo:

I liked that a lot. Of course, the performance was also great. Yes, they could have been on a higher place..

Ohhh...Rachel, you are back!! I haven't heard from you for a while. I was actually wondering what happend and where are you...
I'm not sure if this is the first message you wrote after a while..but this is (I think, maybe I wasn't very attentive Embarassed

) the first I see.

I'm glad you're back..

About Isabel and Olivier, you think so?!? I mean, I know there are ugly games behind the scenes but could this be the reason. It wouldn't be surprising though?!?

AAaahh...I'm so mad!! What if Bulgaria wins? what if Lithuania?? What if France!?? Does it actually matters the country?! It's the talent, the love, the eomotions, the moves and elements, the artistry and the music, the passion...Are we the only ones who apreciate this!? affraid

I think that Rachel is right, I read it too in a French site.
I think that the country really matters. Do you think that Navka and Kostomarov won in Turin if they were not Russians ? I'm not sure about it... Albena and Maxim talked about it in an article if I remember...

Anyway, we can't change anything in ice dancing, there are too much scandals so I don't think it's a good idea to speak about it again and again.
But don't worry Alex, I'm like you, I want to believe that the best will always win (like in SLC, or Calgary...) and I find this sport wonderful, it will make me dream forever ! heart2

I know, I know it matters...We talked about this so many times that I think we covred every aspect of the problem. I even argued with my mom and friends when trying to explain all this injustice.
I know it matters and that we can't change a thing but I'd like things to be different Sad

I'm sure that Navka and Kostomarov woudn't have won!! He once triped and they were not synchronised, the other 2-3 couples made all perfectly. Guess who had the highest score?! affraid

Remember 2004?!? I do... :cryy:

But who cares except the skaters that were undermarked and the fans?!? They are happy with their full pockets and messy souls.

Ohhh.. that is really frustrating.. :blink:

I could never understand ISU and the judges.

"'paying' for the win of Marina and Gwendal" It sounds like a delirium..

Actually, France must be stronger than Bulgaria and Lithuania. France has some traditions in figure skating and it always has some brilliant skaters. It's not really the case with Bulgaria and Lithuania who have only one couple ever.
I sincerly hope Isa and Olivier will get what they deserve. And very soon. If Albena and Maxim retire.. Sad

(please, please, don't do it! poklon

) I'll be happy to hear only one another national anthem. French. Embarassed

Yes I know Wink

but I was saying these specific countries because these are the ones that had couples who were undermarked. And I also wanted to underline that the country matters in your preparation as a skater, but if you manage to proove your value eitherway, you should be allowed to win.

Yes, France has some nice tradition, very strong one and beautiful I might add.

yes it was the first post for a while from me!!! Alex you are so observant!!!! lol!

Yes I am 100% certain about what I said about Isa/Olivier (unfortunately Crying or Very sad

) ~ the French Federation is very weird too, it is not a good atmosphere I think silent

I hope the French get their true marks too, but I think it is a dream. But also I think Isa and Olivier *knew* that the past 2 seasons they woudl be made to suffer for Marina and Gwendal's win... Of course that doesn't make it ok, far from it, but all the skaters know how ice dance is saaad

a "Wanted" section! lol!

I am so glad to be back too zvet

But yes, the French Federation has been troubled with internal tensions and the atmosphere has not been good for the skaters sometimes. :| Perhaps things will get better, I don't know. I hope so pale
