JGP Courchevel I

I think that being late in watching a figure skating event, let alone writing about it, is a constant with me so let’s get back to August! 

I watched some men, some ladies and of course ice dance. It should be noted that - probably because of high altitude - it was a challenging event for some skaters, mainly in the free program. 

Men

In men, I was the most impressed by Corey Circelli. He’s skating to Io ci saro by Andrea Bocelli in the SP and to the Nutcracker in the FP and I don’t know if there’s an even more dreamy combination of programs for me. He’s soft, elegant, great spinner, the spread eagle 3A, rippon jumps, such soothing skating. In the free it wasn’t his day, unfortunately, but he fought until the end of the program. 

I saw Ilia Malinin (Billie Jean / Nobody knows) properly for the first time here. He’s also a mature skater, completely different from Corey. His jumps in the SP were great. In the free he planned to do quads but wasn’t that successful. I liked his skating in the free program more, though. 

I liked Lucas Broussard with such a fun SP to Gin Tonic and then showing his more lyrical side with Yellow Moon in the FP. I’ll keep an eye on him. 

And now two French boys I’m especially happy for them that this JGP went well. The thing is I saw Francois Pitot first at senior French nationals in 2020 and Ian Vauclin (Fly me to the moon / ? ) maybe even a year before and the nationals ... didn’t go well for them. They were very young, competing with much stronger skaters so it’s understandable. But I’m very happy French public saw better performances now. 

Francois is so committed to the performance and I think he has a good relationship with his coach, Florent Amodio. I can even see Flo’s influence on Francois’ costumes ;) I love it that he’s skating to Rocketman in the free. He’s so into it that he almost fell in the step sequence ;)

Ladies

This time, I’ll talk very briefly about ladies because I focused on them more in my Courchevel II  post. I liked Kaiya Ruiter (Opportunity / Mulan), I hope she, Emily and Madelein will bring Canadian ladies back into the spotlight! 

Lindsay Thorngren has great jumps and I loved her Queen’s Gambit FP, with a 2A from an Ina Bauer and with a great spin at the end. 

Then there were two Korean ladies and one lady who switched from Korea to the USA fighting for the podium. Seoyeon Ji (Danse macabre / Piano concerto No 2), Ashun Yun (Smells like teen spirit / Mummy return) and Clare Seo (Rain in your black eyes / Cirque du soleil). They all had beautiful costumes and such nice skating skills. 

 Ice dance

There were twelve teams and yes, I’ll talk about all of them! At least one thing I liked about one of their dances.

Hailey Yu/Brendan Giang (River / Magical thinker)  Their complete stylization into the fairy tale ballet FP. 

Maya Benkiewicz/Nicolas Henault (No diggity / Russian sailors dance) The way they incorporated real Russian Kozachok dance into their choreography.

Daria Grimm/Michail Savitskiy (Going crazy with the blues / Sarabande) Nice, calm RD. Jazzy all the way. And their twizzles in the FP. The way they are smooth and quick at the same time. 

Miku Makita/Tayler Gunara (Leave the door open / Attack) They go full out, party on the ice!

Celina Fradji/Jean-Hannes Fourneaux (Ain’t no sunshine / Matrix) Just generally how they are getting better and mature I’ve been following them for some time. 

Hannah Lim/Ye Quan (Gangnam style/Cats) Are those my fave programs ever? No. But their choreographers are geniuses because now everybody would remember them. Also the acrobatic lift in the RD! And the paws in the FD ;)

Katarina Wolfkostin/Jeffrey Chan (MJ medley / Rain in your black eyes) They are awesome in general, especially the FD is breath-taking.

Tatjana Bunina/Ivan Kuznetsov (Imma Be/Writing on the wall) Amazing FP! The choreography is great. It matches the James Bond theme so well, there is always something going on, some action. 

Louise Bordet/Thomas Ghipoulou (California soul/Taranta) The character steps in the FD! The lifts and combo spins!

Kateřina Mrázková/Daniel Mrázek (Danny Cool/Poeta en el mar) The fire that is the FD! The power, the character steps. And a fun RD, that’s always a plus.

Vasilisa Akhramenka/Alessio Surenkov-Gultchev (Summertime / Tango) Nice sliding move and a lift while Alessio is skating backwards. 

Lika Bodnar/Artem Koval (Virtual insanity, Uptown Funk / Bedroom hymns) Great twizzles and the fact that they really enjoy their RD.

[macaroni-rascal]

Have you seen the top 2 RDs from the Riga JGP? Ted said Gauthier/Thieren's looked polished but easier or basic? And the US judge gave them really low PCS compared to the other judges. The German team had more consistent marks but had a lift deduction and a small error-- do you see what Ted's talking about regarding G/T?

So I just went and watched these programs.

My thoughts after one single watch, and just off the cuff my general impressions. (Also, I didn't listen to the actual commentary because Ted's voice is worse than nails on a chalkboard to me.)

I think the German team had a really solid and and interesting beginning, and then the program sort of faded and fizzled. The music isn't enough to carry them, and there were moments where they were waiting for one another. It wasn't as cohesive as the Canadian's program, that's for sure. G/T also had better sustained speed, I felt their pattern was strong as well, though still not the best. Grimm and Savitskiy really lost momentum in their pattern. The ending was far stronger for the Canadians as well, and they sold it better, you could see the German team really thinking through things, especially in the pattern.

I think with more training, a different music cut, and a better pattern, the German team could have over taken the Canadians, but it didn't shake out that way.

I think Ted saw a lot of flash and intricacy in the first part of G/S's program and based it off that, but G/T had some lovely transition all in close hold, and were far more together, matching, and in sync. In juniors that is what I would rather see. I'd rather really well done basics than flashy yet messy complex stuff. Because the well done basics are actually far more difficult to do. It's easy to kick your leg out, it's not easy to lift and hold your leg and keep your toes pointed, you know?

Feels like we're all collectively hate watching ice dance. I'm not sure who among skaters at GPF could skate Grimm/Savitskiy's Carmen and yet...
