Thanks. It is working. Seems like Ptwist will be competing in couples which is scheduled to be the last on the program (2-2.25 hours from now).

Saw two performances in over 65 couple competitions. None of the participant appears to be over 65. On my small screen they look like 30s or 40s! May be salsa is the new anti-aging drug

 

[wildbill20056]

The combined age

The combined age

They still don't look like 30+35

Watching 4th performance in that category. I think if we market salsa as anti-aging, we can make a lot of money

Okay finally a guy in 5th performance who looks older due to grey hair and baldness.

And then.. I just watched the youth amateur category. Wow. The couple from Toronto impressed me most, I want to see them continue to perform and get better.

I'm watching this instead of dancing because my salsa night was cancelled last minute!

Liz lira and John narvaez will be competing in our heat ...

:shock: ya dont say. and here i thought cristian would have been the one to go for the on2 title. but liz? lira??? i utubed for liz and jhon and found their rough draft from SF. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEWEToMnNAY risky move for her. wish them the best.

and of course, i wish you and kimberly the best x10!!!! hope you learn and grow a lot from this experience. here's hoping you knock it out of the ball park for this first round!! :banana:

On2 starting now. Can see both on stage now. Total 9 couples.

 

[wildbill20056]

Awesome dude! That was truly accomplished and musical! You have done yourselves very proud, and SF is well represented truly!

 

[Offbeat]

Nice routine. Couldn't hear the audio for first half minute. They should make it to next round. Not sure if there was a little fumble at the very end.

Couldn't hear the audio for first half minute.

Yep, I was wondering if it was just my computer. :?

Anyway, great job by ptwist and Kimberly!!! Lots of good couples in this round, though, so I'll keep my fingers crossed....

 

[Offbeat]

I think it's David and Paulina, John and Liz Lira, our own Ptwist and Kimberly!

 

[Brownskin818]

okay, so i really did scream and holler at my monitor for you guys philly . AWESOME JOB!!

 

[Brownskin818]

He is dancing in on1 with Linda

oh i wasnt questioning where he was or who was with. i was questioning LIZ being the one to make a go for on2 when cristian's the one better known to dance on2. i expected her to be in on1 again with another partner, definitely not in on2. i dont think she'll fare well in this division.

any idea who's in the on2 semis tomorrow?

Thank you all for your amazing support it was an great experience although our number wasn't perfect... I got elbowed during an inside turn and I have a cut to show for it. Misconnected twice ... But thanks for enjoying the routine thanks for watching as well!!!
