Standing O for V/T.

Their program is blah choreographically but those elements are SUPERB. That 3twist! *fans self*
I agree. I can't wait until they get better programs.

I like V/T's SP quite a bit. The choreography is active and powerful in a classically appealing way. I do find their LP to be more blah, though.

Kavaguti/Smirnov have by far the best Pair's LP of the season, IMO. It's a travesty that they lost the European title after skating so well, especially with the massive mistake S/S made. This should really be their year to win. Unfortunately V/T are already looked upon more favorably, which is too bad. V/T and S/S are better technically but their LP's are far below what Kavaguti/Smirnov have this year.

Beautiful skate from B/L, the SBS jumps were not as good as usual but other than that it was really nice.

OMG, the noise. The Russian people really love Bazarova and Larionov (more than Volosozhar and Trankov, I guess?)

I would actually consider those SBS jumps their usual. :laugh:


I feel like they could have more expression, but it was a good skate.

I don't like K/S and I'm actually a huuuuuge S/S fan but I agree that this FS is magnificent and more interesting than S/S's Pink Panther one (although I saw that one live and it's really entertaining).

Great skate by B/L. Apart from the SBS jumps that was perfect. Went down very well with the crowd. New SB.

EEK! The Italian team - she needs to either have tights that cover the boots or tuck them in....none of this over-the-heel stuff! Sorry, it's silly really, but it doesn't look very nice.

Wow I really love this B/O program, it fits them very well and I adore the music ! Powerful interpretation.

I'm not sure what the judges are going to do between P/T and V/T. I think it's probably going to go to P/T by a hair.

WoW, Pang and Tong haven't skated this well all season long, just simply beautiful, even their sbs spins were in total synch, which usually are off

P/T : so beautiful, I very nearly cried. I shouldn't be surprised though, those two get me every time (as do V/M but that's another story).
