I remember
when Bourne and Kraatz first broke onto the international scene with their deep
knee bends, their long sweeping edges, and their hydroblading. After
four straight bronze medals at Worlds, they were poised to move up last season
when Krylova and Ovsyannikov retired; but an early-season injury took away their
opportunity.
This year they're back, but the judges seem to have lost interest,
placing them fourth. There was no doubt that the Canadian crowd thought
they deserved better, as did I. An incredibly fast-moving dance
couple, my blurry pictures attest to the difficulty of catching them on film and to their
flashy style.
