i dont like neither the sp nor the lp from v/t. Why cannot they get a decent program? Something original but not cheesy that would showcase their positions, lines, her delicacy and maturity?

Thanks for all the replies! Yes, he didn't look like a happy camper - and it seemed to me as if he looked like he was angry with himself.

Well, that's a... bizarre end to the GPF, I must say...

And for all the talk about the audience, this audience applauded louder when he fell the first time than when she nailed the first throw (which was terrific)

:eek:

V/T's fall on the throw was really scary! I'm so glad that nobody was hurt. She could have stepped on him, and he saved her from falling by grabbing her leg I guess. But that being said, their score is a real joke. How could they get 130+ with that skate? I think P/T was robbed. Both Russian team had sub-par skate. V/T did great other than the falls, but those are solid major falls. B/L were messy throughout although they did almost everything. Can't understand the score any more.

K/S were robbed big time! After watching their program I believe more and more that it is very important which team(s) the federation promote. K/S's program is superior in choreography, that last lift alone is to die for, and they executed it cleanly and nicely. Definitely the best among the three Russian pair today.

I would score:
V/T: 56+62-2=116
B/L: 63+63=126
P/T: 60+66=126

I can't stand this game anymore. 8.82 8.54 8.64 8.82 8.86 for V/T's PCS really? 8.82 for choreogrphy? are you kidding me? 8.64 for peformance?? 8.86 for interprtation?? just wanna slap on the judges' faces.

I don't know what to say but holy cow, how could they win. There was a long break during the program because of that scary fall. Their PE was still higher than the chinese pairs. What the ??? No second throw element. I thought it was enough for them to finish 3rd in the LP. RIDICULOUS!

Yet another highly dubious result. Bazarova & Larionov were the real winners and deserved the Gold. V&T's FS was a mess and how the judges could award those kind of marks for the that program is beyond me

I love B/L's short but the long just OK. B/L really need to improve the SBS jumps, no unision at all.
I used to love V and dislike T but now I started to hate them. What they received was just not right.

It's a bad program in all sences for V/T. There was no clean skate of it yet.The score was huge. I hope they find out what's the matter. Maybe this program is TOO difficult for them to skate:(

Very over marked - doubling jumps at a Sr Grand Prix ? He is injured and waiting for surgery, however, D/R did highest degree of jumping. Lovely program, yes, but did they deserve bronze ? I think not.

You see, I can believe a skater should win because of huge PCS. A complex program full of choreography, performance and musical interpretation with glorious skate language should be commended. Just that this wasn't it.

no one is saying D/R deserve bronze but V/T should have been silver or bronze
B/L should have won this

I wish the other couples wouldn't go to Sochi 2014 and each of the Russians were medaled, in any kind of order the Russian Fedration wanted.
