I'm getting nervous for Aliona and Robin.

I thought M-T-M were better and cleaner.

Agree, I hope they keep their lead!

Same. For me D/R lack a certain je ne sais quoi.

Count me in!

I know chances of that happening are 1% but imagine S/S land throw 3axel as their last element. Imagine! Roof would come off (in my head anyway ).

i'm dying to see this happen!

I also prefer MT/M to D/R - some of the big tricks that D/R do just seem so awkward. But points-wise, I respect what D/R are doing and should they win a medal, I'd be a proud Canadian.

tulosai · Mar 15, 2013

Fair enough *sighs*

Very strong skate but I prefer the other Canadian couple. Just my personal preference

So difficilut D and R techincally do more difficult jumps and throws but M T and M have more chemistry so close

Rachmaninoff · Mar 15, 2013

Hmm, three really close scores in the FP. This is tight.

Skater Boy · Mar 15, 2013

that being said Canada has just won one medal at least in pairs. I can't see K and S being able to garner enough points to beat these two teams.

WeakAnkles · Mar 15, 2013

Their short program is MUCH better.

I also prefer M-T/M's performance but D/R outskated the competition elements-wise and deserve a medal. The hardest jump content ever performed at Worlds

Germans are imploding now...

samson · Mar 15, 2013

Hmmmmm so far the Germans feel rather lackluster to me. I wasn't a fan of Pina last year but at least they were committed to that. This routine....

Violet Bliss · Mar 15, 2013

The top 3 so far are so close it's their SPs that determine the final placements.

CanadianSkaterGuy · Mar 15, 2013

M-T/M should be well ahead of the Germans in the FS with the errors... but I imagine the Germans will be held up on PCS to continue to be ahead of them. Door is wide open for V/T to win now.

Aliona SAVCHENKO / Robin SZOLKOWY (GER)

Music: Flamenco Bolero by Gustavo Montesano

3FTh - very big!
3T+3T+SEQ - she only does 2T+2T+SEQ
FiDs
FCCoSp - unison good
ChSq
3Tw
3S - he falls, she doubles (credit: 2S and fall)
Li
Li
PCoSp
Li
3ATh - wow, low but landed. Twofooted and hand down

Far from their best, big mistakes on the sbs jumps. They did throw triple axel, though!

FS: 64.18 + 68.91 - 1.00 = 132.09
Tot: 205.56, in 1st (out of 14)

aniela · Mar 15, 2013

OMG, they did it! they tried 3A in a last second! WOW

Jammers · Mar 15, 2013

Every team and skater goes through a rough year. Maybe its good that S/S have there's a year before the Olympics unlike last time when they struggled the year of the Olympics.

Skater Boy · Mar 15, 2013

I would have s and s in fourth in the free; maybe even fifth but the judges won't do that to them. Really disappointing blah skating I think the 3A was just to scare the other teams. I hate when it is mind games.

samson · Mar 15, 2013

Whoa. OK did they just pull a throw 3axel? Do you think it was rotated?

blue_idealist · Mar 15, 2013

Definitely not the best from S/S. I wonder where this will place. I honestly don't know, especially since they threw in the landed 3A at the end.
