are judges dropping my fav I/M? She is such a joy to watch and i love their new lp; I want them to go to euros this season and i dont see it happening :no:

I don't think I/M have been dropped, she's just been making mistakes on the jump elements. I've started liking them more.. there is a chance they could still go to Euros. Bazarova and Larionov haven't been skating superbly lately, although there are Gerboldt and Enbert to consider too.

I'm wondering if you watched Castile/Okolski skating to the same music before?

I am still scratching my head how K/S could win 2 world medals while C/O was never able to crack into top 8.

Thank you for the link. I still think that Moskvina's program is much more interesting in terms of choreography and mood. Also, as much as I am NOT K/S fan, I think they interpreted this music much better. C/O had a lot of great qualities, I admit they displayed great lines and smoothness in this piece, they also have nice lifts, but to me they were just skating fast to this enchanting music, with a lot of cross-overs and two-foot skating.
Any way, I was not arguing that K/S are the best ever deserving all the medals, I just made a point that this program suits them and it is the only program so far from them that I enjoy. And most of all, that it hides their weaknesses. Or diminishes the meaning of some quality deficiencies K/S suffers from.
