@singlemalt25 Wow! I guess arrogance & ignorance are alive and well. Please upload your achievements... They are retired, and not trying to prove anything to anyone. It was a wonderful performance for those who remember the art of ballroom and they deserve respect.
Singlemalt25, You are obvious a fashion lover, not an artist ! Because art is timeless ! you should never complain that Beethoven is 200 years old , therefore Beethoven is out of date ! Your showed that you like Riccardo. To me Riccardo dances everything as if he were doing the Jive ! So you probably are a poor dancer yourself and here you criticized Sinkinson. What nerve !

Partner dancing has progressed past them because they have not continued to reinvent themselves. It's actually a bit sad because they are more than enough talent to have grown with dance, but instead they have remained in place. Now what they do seems staid and stodgy compared to everyone from the Baricchis and after. Even their choice of music sounds old-fashioned now.
