Chock & Bates 2023-4 Freedance & Interview

I absolutely love it! Music choice, Choreography and Performance. Endlessly interesting and innovative.

Brilliant choice of music!! Executed perfectly!!

[@sallydaniel1023]

This is their best program ever❤ Perfect choreography and their lifts are so original

[@jquibbler]

Madison is absolutely stunning

[@Valentina-mx3rl]

😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥💖💖💖

[@zona999]

Good god Madison is gorgeous.

[@ThePeyton301]

Great song. Amazing. Thank you for using Floyd

[@conversationswithkat5710]

Gorgeous performance! I disagree with the comment of being too slow on the ice. That song was perfectly synced to their rhythm, and their rhythm to the song as well. Fantastic!!!

[@larhumba4233]

I agree, but the current trend in competition icedance is to skate fast around the rink as it's considered technically more difficult. But as a famous icedancer once said, "it's Ice Dance not downhill skiing!"

[@sallydaniel1023]

It's not a "fast" song, and the choreography fits it perfectly. The Russians always have a very frenetic pace to their programs, and it works for them. It doesn't mean it has to work for everyone

[@marisolgarcia3123]

Yes is slow, but the song requires deep eyes and with slow movement ❤

[@ffff-qq2cu]

Well done. Acrobatics rather than A dance.

thank you so much for sharing this!! i watched it on madison & bates channel so many times bc this performance is breathtaking but for some reason this performance is no longer on their channel! i wonder why!? would you mind if i shared your video? i’d love to share their beautiful performance for those who haven’t seen it. have a lovely week 💚

[@larhumba4233]

Thank you! 🥰 For copyright reasons, the holders can be ruthless. I still cannot upload videos from last season. This has gone under the radar thankfully. I don't mind you sharing but please do it discreetly. 😉

Love this too! You know something is terrific when 4 minutes goes by in a flash. Thank you for posting. Where did you get to see this? It wasn't on Eurosport nor on the UK ISU channel?! Do you have a VPN. By the way I am a huge fan of your channel (in case you hadn't noticed!)

[@larhumba4233]

Thank you so much! 🥰 Isn't this FD AMAZING! I got the same chills I used to get watching TorvillandDean in their heyday, when they'd create new moves and Choreography and I'd just sit transfixed! 😎 It pays to be 31 & 33, with that performance experience. So exciting! 👏👏 I'm interested to hear you say it wasn't on Eurosport, as UK was geoblocked from the ISU channel because it supposedly was? I gave up my Eurosport subscription last year as ISU were allowing UK viewing. Then this season it has all changed again. When I couldn't see the livestream videos ready to be counted down, I got really worried and installed the Opera browser with VPN, it was free. Just turn on VPN in settings. I only use the browser to watch the skating. Sadly on the night of the FD the picture and sound quality was poorer but still watchable. You might have to fiddle with the VPN country as when I tried to rewatch I was geoblocked as it had gone back to default America setting as I didn’t buy the trial. But that had it's compensations as I could see the NBC videos so you would've had that instead. But Johnny Weir talked all over it and I couldn't bear it! You could barely hear the music. But thankfully I tinkered with the VPN and then got access back to ISU. I left it a day or two before uploading incase of copyright. 🙏

Looks like gliding through the clouds. Or flying. Either way, looks like a glorious time! Personally, idk if i could be an ice dancer and deal with the political maneuvering and backroom dealing; it would make me anxious and upset to know that.
