Everybody can make mistakes. But you need to forget it, stay in the moment and fight on. The problem with I/K is that time and time again they show that they can't do that. She just gives up and he sometimes loses his focus after one mistake. That's what really kills their scores.

Of course, they are still young and they can still improve. Who knows what will happen? But judging on all the past drama and their work ethic being questioned, it's hard to maintain hope.
It's just so frustrating... :/
And with their talent and the promise they have shown in Juniors, they could have been challenging or even maybe beating Virtue/Moir and Davis/White by now.
Their basic skating is absolutely incredible, their movement is elegant, fluid and refined, they present their programs really well - they have the whole package!
But it means jack if they can't perform the elements consistently. They have had so many opportunities now...

I am happy for Capellini & Lanotte. This might be the biggest thing they will ever achieve. They could win a World medal but they might also never win one with Weaver & Poje, Bobrova & Soloviev, and I&K all probably more favored than them for the next several Worlds assuming V&M, D&W, and P&B all retire after Sochi (and D&W might skate at the post Sochi Worlds). Although the European title in dance is probably bigger than say a World bronze anyway.

I am with you 100%. I was in love with them since I first saw them skate. I keep waiting for them to finally skate to their potential and start to dominate. Once in a blue moon they skate like they did in Paris and make me believe they can, but sadly they revert to their old habits. Something is not working in their preparation/team right now and they don't seem like they want to address it...
I can't blame her for giving up after a mistake like that. Continue to skate the program like nothing happened comes with experience and she is still young. I think she did an admirable job in smiling and keeping her composure quite well (despite tearing up in the K&C when she saw how close they were) but she composed herself well for the premiere.
I don't know what confidence they have now going to Sochi with their last 2 subpar competitions. The pressure there will be huge
That's the new age of total maturity in ice dance. I/k are just hopeless and need to go.
well S/Z are 18/20 and are even more in need of experience than I/K,
so I/K aren't no way done yet
They are not "awful". They're the European silver medalists, for crying out loud.
It will be a disgraceful embarrassment for I/k to be In Sochi.
well, it's a disgraceful embarrassment for you to be on this forum, and yet we still all get on with our lives pretty well, don't we?
B/a and p/b weren't even there. Silver would have been 4th place. They are in fact awful. They have fallen behind an older team. Ridiculous. Russia Sochi team should be b/s, r/t and s/z. I/k are too embarassing.

then one spot would be wasted then clearly you don't think R/T are better than I/K
Elena is prone to making silly mistakes and she did it again. Her partner put on a brave face but he really seemed annoyed with her. Hate to say this, but their inconsistencies make them the Mirai Nagasu of dance. You never know who is going to show up, the charismatic ice dancers or the oops! I did it again duo.
R/T over I/K?!?! Oh wow. You really hate I/K that much, eh.
