You know I would love to see K and S make a huge jump artistically and technically but I doubt it will happen this year. I think if this team could spend some time working on a real concept and relationship and work on some additional bigger tricks. She is a fighter so more difficult triple jumps; riskier lifts that create oos and awes and better costumes - maybe this team could give Ssquared; V and T and Pang and Tong a run for their money ( I really do not want to see and S and Z type come back just to go for Oly gold - though I don't think it will be so easy for p and t if they want gold at Sochi. I kind of feel Ssquared and P and T had their chance so now I am cheering for a russian team. But I do beqieve the Germans are the team to beat looking at the fact V and T have not improved technically with more difficult elements - they are being beaten tes wise by the Americans almost.
