Highest pair SP score for V/T? Their PCS is just crazy. It was definitely not a champions' performance.
Since Nebelhorn scores count toward Season's Best scores, does that mean V/T's score would officially be a world record in the ISU's eyes?
(this is exactly how you dream to begin your Olympic season!)
No, I actually think it wasn't: for me, there were some minor (REALLY minor) flaws that can be improved, especially in the StSq and in the spin... But I agree that having a performance that is too good too early in the season (especially in the SP) can be a problem later (see Hanyu last season): mistakes, in the first half of the season, can be useful...I don't know about that. I mean, you do want to be good, but do you really want to start out perfect? That puts a lot of pressure on yourselves so to continually get better. You want to build throughout the season. I'm not a fan (I really do do not like Trankov), but I hope for their sakes, this wasn't their peak.
