Q: It seemed like it was a struggle this season to find the right material or look for them with the programs. They replaced their first short program with another new program, and also later gave up on their new free skate and went back to their “Woman” free skate. What do you see as their path in the future with programs and artistry?
Marcotte: It’s going to be important to push the envelope. It’s going to be important for them to try new styles. I know they should try new things–they know they should–everybody knows. But it’s also like, when you have success, it’s hard to really get out of the formula of what works. We tried a different short [program], early in the season. And it was really hard for Ryuichi to get himself into this mindset of this type of music [“I Put a Spell on You” by Kandace Springs]. I think they want to try something new; it’s just finding the right music, something that is different, but where they also feel comfortable. It’s hard. You look at the Italians [Sara Conti/Niccolo Macii]. They brought back their “Oblivion” tango program for Worlds, and it’s their fourth year doing the same short program. Because you try other music, and then you don’t feel comfortable, and you don’t get the points. So of course, it’s natural to go back to what you know. But I think we have an idea of which direction to go for next year. So we’ll see. 0266氷上の名無しさん@実況厳禁(みかか:千葉県)(ワッチョイW 1b62-QP3L)2024/06/21(金) 12:24:15.41ID:cO5sgGYB0>>255 自分もそっちだわ 0267氷上の名無しさん@実況厳禁(庭)(ワッチョイW 3f61-Tayp)2024/06/26(水) 15:35:25.29ID:NC8dUQ7R0 スケ連理事会が今日だったみたい 派遣予定大会にジョンニックス インターナショナル ペア コンペティションがありました りくりゅうはもちろんだけどゆなすみも派遣されますように 0268氷上の名無しさん@実況厳禁(庭)(ワッチョイW 3f61-Tayp)2024/06/26(水) 15:38:45.62ID:NC8dUQ7R0 ペア予選会は西日本でガイシ 0269氷上の名無しさん@実況厳禁(庭)(ワッチョイW 3f61-Tayp)2024/06/26(水) 15:57:55.17ID:NC8dUQ7R0>>268 西日本が11/1から11/4 NHK杯が11/8から11/10 NHK杯出場ペアは予選会免除だ
