Oy! The problem is that many technical specialists also work as coaches or they hold high positions in their federation. Seems totally preventing a conflict of interest is a futile task.

Sui/Han are absolutely ADORABLE! and this is the first use of lyrics that has worked for me.

However, their side-by-side spins- oh my goodness- how dreadfully off were they?!

and their lifts are just not that impressive because of how close in size they are.

Finally, they were off the music at the end. :(

What is it about Russian teams that make them so commanding on the ice? This team just looks world class despite this being their first year as Seniors.

Ditto this.

Loved Sui/Han - she is really a performer. Hope they are through all their growth related issues and have a good season.

That was a stunning triple twist. And I'm always glad for an entertaining routine!

65?! What? Why such a low score?

As I posted above:

I LOVE THEM, btw. But there is a lot to fix here.

Well you're right, a lot of situations could be argued as being a conflict of interest. But they aren't just familiar with each other professionally, Joshua skated with Peter's daughter, so that could be seen as more of an issue. It doesn't really matter to me though.
