What I love about T&D is that they make these (what seem like) simple, easy connections and exchanges but you think, "whoa, how did they do that?" or "how did they come up with that?!"

My family looked forward to the Olympics too and we'd watch as much as we could, with animated debate (and booing) if we disagreed with the judges. <br /><br />I think there's more interesting background ... at the time, music of different rhythms were often pieced together so skaters could showcase command of different steps (I remember hating the jarring music changes). T&D chose music as themes and why they went to so much trouble to keep the integrity of Ravel's composition. Though their routine was not the most challenging, the way they meshed and flowed was magical. This video does not show the best angle of some of their moves but it was the best quality I could find. <br /><br />I love that they reveled in their Borevill and Clean reputation. ;)tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-43624635641947903662012-04-30T18:54:20.086-07:002012-04-30T18:54:20.086-07:00Growing up, I loved watching ice skating on TV too...Growing up, I loved watching ice skating on TV too. I had favorites for different reasons but you can count on the Russians for precision, technical difficulty and beautiful moves so I always looked forward to them. Did you like Gordeeva and Grinkov? Perfection on ice!<br /><br />I'm happy this post brought you nice memories and thanks so much for your advice about the Mona. I'll be trying some in the poppy color in my normal size. ;)tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-51584188162789416172012-04-30T11:15:53.172-07:002012-04-30T11:15:53.172-07:00Love, love, love this post.I grew up ice skating a...Love, love, love this post.I grew up ice skating and probably saw this routine as a child, as it unfolded. We get excited about the Olympics, no matter the country and I love the Winter Olympics in particular. I didn't know all the details about the music, choreography (brilliant about the blades) or their background. They truly set the gold standard in ice dancin. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, fun memories- thank you for bringing it back.<br />Re; Mona question-I tried to leave you a lengthy response on JCA and Blogger/iPhone ate it.:) In a nutshell, both leather and patent pairs were TTS for me length wise, a bit snug width wise but with a give in a leather- will stretch. Half size up in leather Monas slipped off my foot , so was no go.Slastenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11977562748740305040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-36634775002041771712012-04-29T23:17:43.152-07:002012-04-29T23:17:43.152-07:00Hi Jen, I'm delighted if you enjoyed this post...Hi Jen, I'm delighted if you enjoyed this post!tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-37804747035941471182012-04-29T22:02:48.798-07:002012-04-29T22:02:48.798-07:00Hi Andrea, thanks so much!
