Matt went high on relevé in that second set of fouetté turns, but he was on time. Other than that, I have no clue what you are seeing. No points would be, or shall I say, should be deducted for that.

mrballoffur the girl on OSU in the center fell out of her turns quite obviously and they somehow beat this incredible performance where i see no “mistakes on turns” so idk what you’re watching. they were robbed. plain and simple and everyone knows it

@@averyjohnson1777 it was literally less than a 10th of a mark difference between them. And OSU had a higher root mark to begin with. Both teams were brilliant. It could have just as easily gone the other way.

One of the dancers on the right steps out of bounds at 1:57. That's one of the reasons for big deductions and is a huge hit to anyone saying this team is technically perfect. I found their turns and technique to be impressive but the choreography was lacking. Their formations were often cluttered and their lines not straight. They had a lot of transitions that did not flow smoothly where they simply walked in to place.

@mrs.monica91804 ай бұрын
By comparison, MN was technically great. The choreography, in my opinion was not he best match for the song. The difference between MN's and OSU's performances was the artistry. The OSU dancers really communicated the message of the song, dancing with passion and expression. MN dancers' choreography wouldn't allow them to show that level of artistry and style. Their extensions and turns were amazing, but musicality, presentation, and execution of choreography in OSU's performance outshines this one for me.
