Albena and Maxim in IceAge 3, season 2008/2009

Thanks to Laurie from Yagudin forum for this info :

Quote from Laurie: "Taping continues tomorrow. This will be the beginning of the competition, and nine pairs will perform (which is good 'cause I don't think the audience would survive seeing all the pairs along with the judges' remarks ). (...) but I'm sure we'll hear which were the nine from the taping reports. I believe the theme is "Dances from the nations of the world," something like that. Laurie "

Me neither, I don't know because not only me, but Piemontesina can't see them either. I hope now she'll be able to.

Anyway, it's not so important now

According to the official forum of LP2 today begins the shooting at 14.00 o´clock Moscow time.
It will participate Babenko and Kostomarov, Alferova and Vanagas, Arntgolts and Staviski, Gordeeva and Beroev, Strizhenova and Tikhonov, Lanskaya and Yagudin, Sedakova and Hvalyko. I could not find out till now what are the other two couples who will participate today. Maybe Albena and Timur?

And maybe we can find a pic!

Just found an info about the new dance from Maxi and Tatiana:

The poster in LP-forum writes that it was a great dance, but that they received not so much points as they deserved . They received only 11,84 points, and I don´t know how much this is worth . But according to the poster in LP-forum it´s a very low rate . The poster writes it was a difficult and beautiful programm, and that both were dressed in white. Maxi as Tatar-Mongolian and Tatiana as Russian Princess, as far as I understood the translation. And if I understand it right, Maxi with black hair and beard...

I also read that.That's strange. The girls in the forum are wondering why only Yagudin and his partner got 6.0...hmmm

A 6,0??? In the first show? Ufffff!

P.S.: Maxi´s and Tatianas dance was "Prince Igor" ...

I am sure the dance was great:)

Why Yagudin have 6,0? Because it's Yagudin You'll see - Navka will have 6,0 as well (I hope I'm wrong!)

Btw, he may really deserves this - let's wait till saturday and we'll see.

No ! If possible, Navka will receive a 7,0!!!

Yagudin's partner was a professional figure skater for 7 years so it's not a big surprise that he has 6.0. Plus Tarasova is still in the jury

Petra ,don't worry about the pics it is not a big deal


[quote="Vania"]Why Yagudin have 6,0? Because it's Yagudin [quote]


Yags is Yags , i am happy for him and maybe the dance was really good .Max was helping them with one of the lifts ,according to some of the girls : "Сложная поддержка, он в присяде. ее нога у него между колен. как в профайле. Макс им показывал "


I am not sure why Max and Tania got 11.84 but is still the begining .It is to early to be worried , i am sure it was beautiful & original and they were appreciated :" Зал орет Ставу "молодец"

Ähmmmmm.... and I thought the partners are all non-professional skaters...

Hi,

Didn't have the chance to log in for some time.
I am glad Ice age is back. I only watched Albena and Maxim with their partners. I am impressed by Timur. He is doing quite well for anovice. All these slaloms, skating backward, turns and rotations that he does on his own are not that easy for a novice to master in a short time.

Hi Evgenia! It´s sooooo good you found the way back to us !

And: Yes, you´re right: Timur is really skating very well! And he is skating alone, without support from Albie !! If one considers that he began skating only some weeks ago, this is really a great result! It must be really difficult to learn all this in only some weeks...
