Such amazing pictures!! Rivendare do you think it would be okay if I'd use some of them for the website? Could you ask? Prawn and NS said yes. I believe others will also say so anytime soon. Please let me know whose picture you want, Renee!

Please let me know whose picture you want, Renee! that's great! maybe also some by zzikssa, sb+ and vgl... it takes up too much server space to use all of the pictures, but as it's a fansite it's good to have pictures from fans too instead of just from professional photographers!

www.iceskatingintnl.com/current/content/2008%20gpf.htm2. 152.95 FD 93.62 (46.30+47.32) Domnina and Shabalin used Khatchaturian’s Adagio for the ballet Spartacus which has been interpreted by many singles skaters. This was a significant work in the development of ballet and became hugely popular in the Soviet Union. Instead of the focus being on the ballerina, the choreography concentrated on the male star’s strength in spectacular lifts, carries and gravity defying leaps. This translates into pair skating but does not work so well for ice dancers. The story is of the ultimately doomed Spartacus, the slave who leads a rebellion of his peers against the Romans. Shabalin said he enjoys this music because, "I like to be the hero even if it is only on the ice. The most important thing is that I feel much better. I have no pain from my knee injury. Now we can work at 100%. With each day, each week, it gets better and this competition proved that we are getting there. We went out in a fighting move and we are happy with our second marks and with the way we expressed the character of the program. We were happy with our component marks but, technically, we could have had higher levels on some elements." Domnina was less enthused. "It was still only 50% of what we have to do. However, at the end I thought it was surprisingly easy to skate. I could have continued. It was one of the easiest performances for me for some reason." Five of their elements received Level 4: the twizzles (+0.50); the circular steps (+1.20); the curve lift (+0.30); the rotational lift (+0.50); and their combination spin (+0.40). Their other moves: the long lift which went from straight line to rotational (+1.0); the diagonal steps (+0.80) and the straight line lift (+0.80) were Level 3. They left previous partners to team up in 2002 and won the 2003 world junior championship. Shortly afterwards and then made their debut in the 2003 world senior championships finishing 15th. They have made constant progression since then and, until injury took them out of the running, they were definite contenders for the gold in Gothenburg.

SB+, vgl, Gachini and Rzabln said yes. I'll ask zzikssa about the usage. And there are still more pictures taken by Korean fans...

It is really nice to hear that Maxim now feels no pain in his knees.
