So far I've seen Pang & Tong and Obertas & Slavnov. O & S made a few mistakes but I loved a couple of their spins in the air, very inventive! I'm getting excited again for pairs since I only liked S & Z prior to now. P & T reminded me of S & Z in the old days when they still had their rough edges to work out. They definitely are a future contender for gold. P & T did a good job. I wasn't really into their program until midway. They also had an impressive lift. Wow. Their program also flowed more than O & S with less mistakes even though I didn't really like the program 'til near the end. S & Z did a great job. Clearly they were the best but I didn't like the music much. I was a little disappointed with their program compared with past ones but it was nice to see the little fluff piece on them before they skated. And the crowd just loved them.

I am always amazed by the passion of S&Z. I think the ending of their program could use a bit more punch.
