I really believed that this was Stolbova/Klimov's to lose. They have really come into their own this season, are in incredible shape and the attack and confidence they are showing is just remarkable. Their triple twist didn't go so well this time but all of the other elements were executed to a very high standard. There was no hesitation and they really commanded the ice.
When I watched I did think Stolbova's twisting is more horizontal, more parallel to ice. Maybe its because of the TV angle. Also I suprised because I didn't see any GOE bullet for good air position of the lady. I read both positive aspects and errors.
