Grand Prix Final: Pairs LP

[magicalwords]

Despite early mistakes, that was a beautiful program

[Kinga]

Really nice skate from M/T! Out of unison on the SBS spins, but the rest was very secure. Impressive! I just don't like that program though. There's not much choreography at all, and they do nothing with that music.

I agree.
Also their pair spin is veryyyyyyyyy slow

[madibe]

Really enjoyed S/S. This is much better than their previous lp. They had some minor problems though, and won't overtake a clean S/Z with this.

And they go behind Pang/Tong!

[hikki]

What a beautiful program from S/S... Too bad about the first 2 jumps.

[mishieru07]

Solid skate by M/T, but didn't quite have the emotional impact of P/T for me.

Ow, rough skate for S/S. 2nd behind P/T

[gold12345]

I agree.
Also their pair spin is veryyyyyyyyy slow

Yes, I thought so, too.



I really like S/S's program. The blown 3T-3T sequence was a really big problem though. They are behind Pang/Tong!

spread eagles into 3tw
spread eagle into lift one arm and down so easy
pull through axel entry lasso lift change of air position carry down into his arms
very nice
dance lift into death spiral ugly position with cocked leg
spiral sequence change of edge then biellmann spiral
dance lift into hip lift and down
besti squat into 3S throw.

Shen / Zhao !!!!!!!!
Standing O for them

[madibe]

Shen/Zhao: as usual. They are just legends. Wonder if they'll break 140 for this?

[newvie]

Wonderful performance from S/Z!
No doubt they will win

[Kinga]

I liked S/S LP, but it does not bring me to my knees.. I don't know... It definitely does not deserve few 10s they got in SC for it.

S/Z- wow! They are so consistent! And she is marvellous... The posture, the positions, the finishing movements... Wow.

[magicalwords]

A HUGE SCORE for S/Z.
Well Deserved

Shen/Zhao!!!!!! Her star lift position totally makes me cringe, but their performance was so exciting!!! Ahhh, this was totally worth staying up until 3:30 am!

[jeanettetan]

S/Z broke the short, long and overall world record here!!
