4th place by not even a point...It's a shame but at the same time they have new PB's from this competition and as I wrote yesterday they keep improving every year...maybe by a little steps but they do...They should medal in the future, I'm pretty sure.

I'm PinkCircleO8 on the YouTube chat. Lol. Yeah YouTube was my first social media account. Hence the juvenile-sounding username.

And on the plus note, I get to hear the Ukrainian national anthem for the first time....via livestream of course.

Well, we had Kovaříková and Novotný, they are world champions from 1995. At the Olympics they were 4th in 1992 and 6th in 1994. Then there was Kadlecová/Bidař(older brother of Martin Bidař). They unfortunately split up. It wasn't so hopeful, she didn't really had triples, IIRC. Their best results are 7th at the Euro 2011, year before they finished at the 8th place in the Junior Worlds. I think the big difference between them and Dušková/Bidař was SBS jumps. While Kadlecová performed just doubles in competition, Dušková still competes in singles and she can land pretty solid 3Lz. Not the quality of Tuktamysheva or Yuna, not so consistent but she she can land it (as well as toeloop, salchow, not sure about flip and loop but for sure they're working on it).
I'm not saying it will be easy for them, but they have some potential.
