when will the Russian Fed stop promoting M/K , see their results the international judges dont agree with their national inflated marks, lol
they are leaving S/Z and S/B not to mention M/K taking S/B or S/Z host picks at CoR
S/Z should have competed here, I really hope they remove M/K as host pics
as I have said a Million Times a Couple with Similar Height will Never have a Great Future !!!
Monko's taller than Khaliavin is very disturbing to look at and not to mention cannot even do proper twizzles
give me S/Z and S/B anyday

then you need to get your eyes checked, the video clearly shows she is taller
they are like Agnes Zawadzki of US Federation being promoted with the dislike of international judges
can't believe they even competed here Sinitsina/Zhiganshin and Stepanova/Bukin are miles better than this two
and I'm not just talking about their lack of height difference

When they are stood side by side, Ksenia Monko is clearly shorter than Khaliavin!
I've seen them in the flesh and she is a good couple of inches shorter than him.
If you watch sky_fly20, she sometimes looks taller than him, as he bends his knees more than her at times.
It was a solid early season performance. A bit of an error on the twizzles, but I thought they some nice finnstep sequences. The music cuts worked pretty well too.

Just got back to the feed. What happened to the Ukranian couple Heekin-Canedy/Dun? That score is way lower than they normally get--TES is almost the lowest of the competition so far. :-O

you call a 56 a good score ?
horrible twizzles, she over the years is the weak link of the two ( and no personality )
its better for Khaliavin to dump Monko

they are a mismatched couple
Ksenia got thinner
but too bad height doesn't decrease
They can't do any decent lifts
Monko Khaliavin were great, WOW.
I totally agree some couples are Russ Fed favourites... two dance couples....I/K and R/T. The rest of couples must be not just 50 % better but 100 % better.
Btw WHY got Monko Khalivin deduction? For what? If it was lift over time, it would be obvious right after their program.. same with too long program....what was wrong??? Anyone who probably don't like them must protest against something in their program...which really don't look like Russ Fed is propagating them....

IIRC, she had a stumble of some sort..
And ack, Irina Shtork fell almost flat on her face! :no:
