Tessa Virtue and Scott
Moir won the Canadian Championships with a fabulous free dance scored
111.61. After the struggle of the short dance, the Olympic champions
did not make a mistake and earned a level four for the curved lift
(that was changed after the grand prix final: in the early season
Scott used to lift Tessa staying on one foot, now he takes the spread
eagle position), twizzles, spin, and combo lift, and a level three
for step sequences and the rotational lift. Tessa and Scott had
decided to change some parts that were considered too static and now
the program seems even more detailed and beautifully on the music.
Weaver/Poje made a real
step forward this season and might give us some thrilling
performances at worlds. They scored 106.26, six points above their
season best, and collected a series of level four on twizzles, spin
and any of their lifts (they received a level three on steps).
Gilles/Poirier also had a
good skate, winning the bronze medal at their debut competition. They
were given level four on any of their elements except steps, but they
left some points on the artistic mark.
