Ice Dance Figure Skating Full Event - Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics

[@KdaSil5]

Tessa and Scott's Spanish Flamenco is amazing! Definitely my favourite and in my opinion the best. Go Canada Go!

[@starsmoon0216]

Wasn't very original though. Its been done countless times...

[@alinetheodoro6679]

ok, but their technique were amazing, don't be a hater just cause you like meryl and charlie, tessa and scott deserved it as meryl and charlie deserved in 2014. I love tessa and scott, they are the best for me, but i can admit that in Sochi Meryl and Charlie were better. It's ok.

[@starsmoon0216]

Aline Theodoro I never said that Tessa and Scott didn't have good technique, but I'll stand by my comment about the originality of the Flamenco dance. It has been done over and over for many years while Bollywood was new and fresh. I was referring to the OD, not the entire competition. I'm not hating on T/S. They deserved to win gold in Vancouver just as Meryl and Charlie deserved gold in Sochi.

[@alinetheodoro6679]

+starsmoon0216 yes, I agree about Sochi too 🤗

I didn't remember Evan Bates skating with anyone before Madison Chock.

[@cattycorner8]

My favorite event. I could watch these forever. They are such great all around athletes and of course fantastic skaters.

[@TheCrystal0817]

maybe its just me but the first dance absolutely took my breath away!!!! the dance was beautiful and the costumes were certainly unique (i wouldve gotten rid of those arm things on the woman though, they obscure her arm movements too much imo!!)

[@psychstudentrip]

TheCrystal0817 I feel you

[@lucia5227]

the hungary one was AMAZING

[@thebigl156]

I struggled with this one for years thinking Virtue and Moir beat out Davis and White simply by home advantage bias, but I concede I was wrong. When the program aired in the U.S., it was shown from different camera angles and it's clear from the the single distance shot her that Virtue and Moir gave the more complicated and best dance.

[@kathyteso9331]

That takes a big person to admit that.

Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir at 2:23:40 :D AMAZING

[@aly8950]

Tessa and Scott absolutely bodied their dance

[@gk891]

D/W's OD was fantastic no doubt but compared to V/M they don't skate as closely together, their edges are a shorter and choppier, their handholds aren't as soft and fluid, and they don't pay as close attention to their free legs (although they've improved upon that in recent years). And I thought V/M's choreography was more demanding and challenging. Yes the flamenco has done many times before but the judges have to rewards superior skating which they did.

[@nipaipo36100]

i disagree and i had the americans in front after this original dance

[@gk891]

@@nipaipo36100 For what reasons?

[@annalisa3109]

[@sy-ib2wm]

Rest in peace Chris Reed.

[@roycemints]

I agree that Davis and White's OD was great, but Virtue and Moir's OD was more intricate and difficult. They had closer hand holds which Davis and White have a hard time doing. The points for V/M's OD was from the difficulty of it.

[@e.i.3077]

In spite of the cultural appropriation controversies, I really enjoyed this segment. We got to see many people who got to share their culture in an international stage, many of whom are virtually unknown to the world. This is by far the most diverse segment in all of figure skating and it's a shame it got tarnished because of a few people who were unable to recognise their own limits.

[@DorEnErnil]

I have to say that in the OD, Virtue and Moir outskated Davis and White. That seems pretty clear. I love both of them and they're both great, but the judges did well here.

[@nipaipo36100]

totaly disagree

[@MrChaseBlue]

DorEnErnil I remembered clearly in the gpf that I was entranced by their Bollywood program and from memory, I believed they skated better than v/m there. However, here i agree that it’s clear V/M out skated the field in the OD (and FD) even with my biases love for the novelty of Davis/White’s program considered. D/W also look a little more nervous too throughout the competition.

[@kelseyhubbard2258]

The skaters from Great Britain SO should have gotten more than they did! On another note: WHAT a finale from the 2nd pair from Russia! My jaw dropped! Wow!

Sometimes I think that I enjoy the couples who are lower in the standings more than the leaders. Because they are not in medal contention, they are usually able to put more joy and energy into their performance. They probably enjoy their Olympic experience more too.

Meryl and Charlie's OD is masterpiece and was the best OD of the night, hands down. It was inspired and creative as all hell.

[@starsmoon0216]

+Troy Turner Meryl and Charlie hands down are the most original. No one came close.

[@troyaturner1979]

[@jodij6280]

I love that they put their whole heart into it. Including Meryl buying the material to make sure her costume is authentic.

I'm so happy that Davis and White are finally getting reward and not underscored like they have in the past.

[@txgal2986]

Does anyone know why Penny Coomes and Nicholas Buckland scored so low? I thought they did well and included some difficult moves. I expected them to be in the top 5, as of the time they danced.

[@melanneydaw3572]

"What up Detroit" Tanith is so funny lol

[@LondonNano]

@Nongamblerpokerfan I believe most of it is from the Bollywood film "Devdas" that was a 2000s remake of the original.

[@MagicRia2]

come on meryl!!!love from greece!!!

[@ujfalusik1]

surely řessa and scott were the best, but the kerrs syblings from UK were great too and definietely the hungarian couple with czardash dance. Ukrainians zadoroshniuk and verbillo were also my favorite. also french natalie pechalat and fabio bourzat were far more better than the russians performing australian aboriginal dance- but i respect that they choose that dance so different from their coulture, but there was definitely a strong deficit of difficult figures. The americans with country dance did not impress me at all.

[@Kiltdon]

John Kerr put his foot down on the second twizzle. Big mistake. But they are enjoyable.

[@belensanchez6512]

2:30 look who is the ninth judge #Don'tForgetSochi2014

[@townfool4682]

I cannot get over how goofy the "American Country" dance by the two Great Britain skaters is. Can you imagine going to the Olympics and deciding that's a good idea??? Also seems very on-theme that they are brother and sister lol

[@jodij6280]

Coombs and Buckland got screwed. They were better than a LOT of the others that went before them.

[@MrChaseBlue]

Jodi J they didn’t have the skating skills compared to a bunch before them even if their program was more fun. However, Riverdance is one the most accessible and easiest pieces to get into, so its more the program choice than what they’re really doing on the ice to get that level of praise.

[@dannistyle6399]

+starsmoon0216 yep I agree. Meryl & Charlie's Bollywood was much more original than Tessa & Scott's OD. Its really a masterpiece and so difficult. I liked Tessa & Scott' Flamenco dance but not as good as Meryl & Charlie's.

Tessa virtue and Scott Moir is the best

[@Sneg8]

Reeds siblings, so elegant!

[@mlc2005]

I would have placed Virtue/Moir first overall for the Olympic gold, but for me, the winner of the Original dance was Davis/White. I just felt it was MUCH more original than the flamenco, which has been done countless times. These two teams are so even in talent it's almost impossible to judge, but the Canadians earned the gold for sure.

[@tinaloye2014]

Matthew C thought original dance was how best you did your own techniques??

1:56:30 can’t believe they were the favorite to win. Thank god vmes exists.

[@scoutz0rs]

I'd like to see an "Irish dance" routine (outside of actual Irish dance, that is) NOT be completely inspired by Riverdance or Lord of the Dance. There's other Irish music and costumes could be solo dresses like those worn in competition. And you could do something like a 2-hand reel. It'd be great.

[@Curiousever]

scoutz0rs do you think penny coombs and partner were a bit underscored?

[@FiveRiversCity]

I felt so sorry for Penny and Nick. It was a lovely programme but not without flaws. In my opinion the scoring was rather harsh, but I think Penny's spin over Nick's shoulders may have been classed as an illegal move in ice dancing hence the low score.

[@scoutz0rs]

@@Curiousever I think they were always underscored tbh. Not that they weren't vulnerable technically, but they would always get nailed more on the PCS than I think was fair.

[@rowwdycolt654]

In ice dancing/skating, the relationship takes no precedence. It is a matter of fulfilling the program requirements, artistic requirements and overall performance. Choreographers have a lot to do with program.

[@giana9261]

Also look closer- no intimate context or energy at all-

[@richardmurray4042]

Looking at this now, Charlie looks very tight in this, at least up until the twizzles where they both finally let go. His opening moves look very tentative and he doesn't really stretch. He's very good at performing for the judges but sometimes forgets he has a partner on the ice. Scott and Tessa never did this dance as well all year. Saved it for the Olympics.

[@val7149]

porque nao tem o completo feminino?

[@lynncraig6151]

The CZE guy....if he can't do a Twizzle at this level....he needs to keep his feet on the ground. His partner deserves better ....BTW, They say wearing green is bad luck on the Ice.... maybe he just needed to change the color of his pants.

[@claireboyle7151]

What is a compulsory dance?

[@alfredmeneses5496]

it's a set dance pattern based on steps and characteristics of ballroom dances that the skaters have to perform. every skater will skate the same pattern and follow the same steps and leg extensions and direction on the ice. it's a way for the judges to actually see and compare the teams and see who has good clean edges and can skate controlled across the rink.

[@melandin101]
