fingers crossed for P/T, S/S and P/Z. Want to see a good show from W/W again. She is just lovely. Hongbo did a good job to the young pairs.

This new pair especially the girl Wang can really perform. So sweet and adorable. Performance is up to 7. Good start!

Here's hoping for a good, strong result from SCIMECA/KNIERIM. They are the first US pair team this GP season to be in the final group for a LP. I'd love to see them build a strong case for themselves and go into Nationals as the pairs favorite for gold.

Some mistakes (pop, fall) but I think they have good potential. Nice lines, difficult elements, "pairness". Lets hope they stick together even after Sochi.

Score: 49.81+54.92-1=103.73, 161.72 and into 2nd out of 5

Low TES, maybe an element got invalidated
