Senior Pairs Short Program
Only Three Pairs are here. Stieglers and Magarian Guzman are in the
program but are not skating.
- Trisha Hayes & Richard Gillam
- Skated to Strictly Ballroom. Not much
height in their split twist but it was completed. Side by side double
jumps and only a double throw. Very slow pairs combo spin, slow and out
of synch side by side spins. Very slow all around, but nice line.
Marks were 4.2 - 4.5 technical and 4.3 - 4.5 presentation.
- Natalie Vlandis & James Peterson
- Gorgeous brown and greenish costumes, sort of pheasant style, some sort
of Celtic music. Good speed and line in their lift, a throw triple well
done. Side by side triple toes I think, she was a little shaky on the
landing but held it. He used both his hands to pull her out of the death
spiral. Oppegard trademark complicated circular steps sequence complete
with dance holds. Very ioce. The spins had good synch but weren't very
close together.

5.0 4.9 4.5 4.6 5.0 4.8 4.9 4.3 5.1
- Whitney Gaynor & David Delago
-
Some sort of Tango number, they started out the program doing a tango
down the center of the ice. He was wearing that ubiquitous toredore
costume. They have improved a lot, faster and with better line. There
twist just barely got up, but was completed. Throw triple and side by
side triple sals landed well. Nice posistions in their combo spins. He
fell out of the side by spins, stopped and then got back into synch with
her, which I didn't think was possible. Still with that glaring error I
don't think they should have been ahead of Natalie and Jim.
