2012 Skate America Pairs SP

[Dots]

Very interesting scores for V/T... even with the fall P/T are not that far behind imo. Good. This should provide a good showdown!

Just saw D/C. They are never going to be one of my favorites but they are as consistent and as energetic as any team out there and I do see that they are improving. Good for them. An excellent skate.

Trankov's mustache just makes the SP look 10x tackier.

It's very porn 1970.

I agree.
And hey, she actually doesn't look super tanned. Much better. Good for her.

That program and those looks just didn't suit them at all. Very awkwardly packaged this season and they seem very uncomfortable with what they've been given.

Umm..Maxim's moustache and hairstyle makes him look a little Adolf Hitleri-ish

You know what? I was about to post exactly the same thought as you. I don't like that look at all. Reminds me of neo-nazis :(

I can never like this SP by V/T, the music is too screechy, its really terrible to the ears to listen to !

Only one word for PT's program. "WOW"


Hope they can get the jumps back later on

I don't like V/T's program, it just seems unnatural for them, like if they were playing characters they do not feel at all, just acting, no real emotion... And there were a couple of technical mistakes, so 65 is even too high, for me!
I didn't like Pang-Tong a lot: they are one of my favourite couples, but this Tango-Flamenco theme doesn't suit them a lot (like in 2009) and they looked a bit unconfortable with the elements, I hope the FS is better!
I am probably the only one here who loved Denney-Coughlin: I really liked their program, I think it deserved something more than 27 for the PCS: speed, cleaness, determination, calmness, (a bit of) interpretation, it was the best of the night, for me...

V/T are so unpolished. Every elements have problem. Even their skating seemed scratchy and labored. They shouldn't even hit 60 with that skate. Minus point for tackiness.
P/T, P looks more and more like that sick stickly girl from Russia. These two will have so much problem with their health by the time they hit 40. Sad to watch.
D/C, especially D, huge improvement. No more garish make-up. Tasteful outfit. Speed, power, should get highest PE, CH, IN.
