Also Gleb with smoky eye… this is like Russian ChatGPT show me 90s alternative. Just weird from Davis/Smolkin. #GPFRA better than #FinlandaTrophy

🇮🇹 skating with intensity and fierceness not seen at #GPFRA They were flying into those twizzles and Marco stumbled. That will be costly despite intensity #NHK2025 #NHKTrophy

After watching the ice dance segment at #CupOfChina and #GPFRA, I am so tired of the Bock strategy of acrobatic ice dance to juice the GOEs. As a result, very few teams with quality skating skills can compete (like L/B), and it's just boring to watch the women get thrown around like jr-pairs.

And while DUNE wasn't heard at #GPFRA, its composer Hans Zimmer was still represented by the likes of Luc Economides and Francois Pitot:

QUESTION: What skating music (or artists of skating music) should I write about this Olympic season? ⛸️🤔

Also, watch Ilia's exhibition, it's a hoot! The girls screamed, I laughed my head off. He clearly got my memo saying he should lean into his heartthrob era instead of trying to sell niche merch #GPFRA ⛸️

Also, the french audience is not much into plushies but the ONE plushie on the ice after Andrew Torgashev's FS was a pizza slice 😀🍕🍕 #GPFRA ⛸️

Yeah I'm curious how much "Italian program" representation we'll have by the end of the GP series! I've heard of at least a couple other GODFATHER programs... to name just one possibility. #GPFRA #GPFigure

From a music perspective, one takeaway from #GPFRA is that the Hans Zimmer programs just keep on coming! (Even if the ones we saw last weekend were DUNE-free.) Come read this I wrote about The Zimmer Effect last year...

An Appreciation of Ilia Malinin The two-time reigning world champion opened the Grand Prix season with the kind of dominant performance we've come to expect from him.

After his dominant performance this weekend, I had to write about Ilia Malinin #GPFRA #figureskating adamreisinger.substack.com/p/an-appreci...

Some folks have FEELINGS about Angers but i just had a good time. My 3 highlights: 1) getting a selfie with Ilia. We had to be pretty shameless to acost him but we reckoned we needed to do it before he fully embraces his rockstar era #GPFRA ⛸️

To add insult to injury, Charlene & Marco are only about 1pt BETTER than The Daughter??? #GPFRA

ISU seems to have chosen violence in this Olympic season.

Sorry Lilah and Lewis just look juniorish with that FD. She's barely pushing with her skates and their overall score is just 1pt BEHIND FB/C, 9pt AHEAD of R/A? And Charlene & Marco are off the podium at #GPFRA and won't make the Grand Prix Final??? 😱

Allison & Saulius just have a cool factor and smoothness you can't teach. That said, not sure I agree that their EDM FD is better than Charlene & Marco's -- they do have the superior RD tho. #GPFRA

Catching up on the #GPFRA free dance...and tbh I lowkey get why G/F were lowballed. Their program is very one note, no wow moments or elements

I see the vision for Charlene and Marco's Diamanti FD. By the Milano Olympics, I think it can bring the house down. Just give me more Italian drama! #GPFRA

Finally watching the Free Dances at #GPFRA. I'm also fangirling France's Natacha Lagouge & Arnaud Caffa. They have beautiful classic ice dance skating skills and connection.

Imagine if Maurizio Margaglio gave this 'In the Mood for Love's FD to Charlene and Marco...

So I’ve learned more about music violation deduction.. Guignard and Fabbri did NOT get a deduction on their tempo violation because more than 50% of referee and judges need to flag it. In this case it was 30%. #GPFRA

Les Supporteurs really got behind the French team in Angers over the weekend so much so that they gave their skaters big heads! 🤯
