Pairs FS

I remember I only made two predictions, that K&S and Kerrs would place higher than everyone expects.. I am right with the first, here's to hoping for Kerrs!

If S/S had just kept the throw 3flip or the sbs 3sal together, they would've won. That said, I do think K/S is overscored in the PCS, considering her wretched unpointed feet. The woman seems to have doorstoppers for hamstrings.

I wish flags were made from silk like in the good old days, not polyester

Slightly OT: will we be hearing Marseillaise tomorrow?

Smirnov has a woman for a hat:

I've seen a lot of hideous death spiral variations since the advent of the COP, but K/S takes the cake... the urinal cake with theirs:

She carried and on looked fine after. Still smiling away. Hopefully there is not a problem. I was looking forward to the men the most but i really found the top 4 all wonderful. D/D also looked strong in their nationals and liked their free, adore S/Z of china too,it will be an exciting Olympic event.

It was thrilling.

I am a fan of beautiful, liquid dismounts from lifts, and in that respect, S&S are not enough for me, although I greatly respect their skating skills and the speed and certainty of which they are capable.

I am quite happy to see how well Russian pairs have developed, and I look forward in the future to the further development of Bazarova-Larionov; they look *very* promising to me.

I am a Kavaguti-Smirnov fan, so naturally, I am pleased by their win. I should like to see them improve on the transition between the two sections of their programme, before the Olympics. There seemed to be an awkward space in there.

Pairs are really getting to be good to watch again. What a pleasure!
