Not me. . .I'm in total awe of people who have achieved that high of a test.

I'll be in Masters Novice I

I called them yesterday and left them a message. :-(

They were so good about getting me my event at MN State before I left the competition. Then again, I remember back to when it took 3 months (no returning messages either!) to get my ice show tape. And then there was a problem with the camera where the music wasn't playing in tune with the skaters and everyone was outlined in a horrible blurry hue. That had better not happen again this time!

My parents leave tomorrow, and I still have no DVD in hand.

Is this the same company for all these mishaps? It would be nice if they would at least return our calls.

Woohoo DVD arrived today.

Review -

My Chacha was hot!!! And I was spot on time. Gosh darn stupid non-step behinds!

Rhythm Blues didn't look so good. It seems like each new dance I work on I am better at that the previous ones.

Freestyle

What was not hot --

I hate how I look in my dress. It looks so good on a hanger but it makes me look like a big round fat tourquois ball! I am getting a more flattering dress before I do this program again.

Posture Posture Posture ---and why oh why does it feel like my leg is so high and straight and in reality it is not even close???

What was hot - my spins -- whoo hooo - 5 revolutions on my one foot spin and seven on my two foot. My two foot spin is supposed to be with my arms over my head but they are actually a little forward -- I need to relax my shoulders, arch my back more

You didn't get yours yet???? I'm in Iowa - four hours away! I'm sorry - didn't mean to rub it in, I was sure you'd have yours by now.

I'm not real happy with the quality of it. I have some other videos by this company and have not been real impressed.

Still no freaking DVD for me. I keep meaning to call them, but life gets in the way. I just really wanted to see my skate before Nationals (originally we were going to look at it and make changes accordingly but it's a little late for that now ). I know it's a family-run company, but this is ridiculous, especially when I was verbally promised that they would send my video to me on Monday 19 March, almost 3 weeks ago.

For shame, CG Video, for shame.

They'd just better get it to me soon, because I'm moving out of state pretty soon and I'll be ticked if I never get it!

Does anyone know why the MidWesterns is not up on IceNetwork?

Whisper,

The same thing happened to us with a local video company. We really needed the feedback after we did Ashburn, so that we could make some corrections for E. Sectionals, but the company never delivered...we didn't see our skate until after E. Sect! Very unprofessional. I really sympathize with you...they have no idea how important it is for us to have this feedback, and, as soon as possible after we've put it out there.

I called the Network, and after calling three times, and being on hold for over 40 minutes, before someone answered, they advised me that have the original source video and are rendering it. The person I spoke with mentioned they usually appear within a month of the event....so who knows when they will finally appear. Hopefully, before the subscription for the current year runs out!

Hey lovepairs,

What irks me most is their promise of sending it the Monday after the event (heck, that's when they cashed my check!). AND one of the owners is a skating coach, so she should know full well how important it is to have feedback before competing again.

I've only called once and they never returned my calls. I should do it again. It's just that things have been so hectic since I'm also trying to orchestrate a cross-country move for law school, that something this tiny has gotten put on the back-burner a bit.
