I have been a huge of these two since 2008-2009 season with their Cinema Paradiso free skate. However, I feel entering the new Olympic cycle that it's time to find other partners to take their skating to a whole new level. Their programs are becoming one dimensional and uninteresting mostly in due to the fact they are siblings. I would like them to explore more mature, romantic roles that both are capable of portraying. Alex in particular is a good looking, masculine guy with amazing skating skills and he has potential to be that leading guy like Scott, Charlie, Andrew, etc. And Maia is growing to a beautiful young lady with amazing expression of sensitivity and warmth. I don't see them progressing further together and their PCS are showing that. Their sibling partnership was cute but they're getting older and I think its not going to work in their favor in the future. I mean yes, there have been successful sibling teams such as the Duchennay's but I don't think their style is innovative and quirky enough to pull it off. They're styles are lyrical and soft and it would be wonderful for them to have partners to counteract it. What do you think?
