I watched these two at Nebelhorn and actually think they looked really good for having been together only about a year. I found out they did compete at Nationals last year but I don't have any memory of seeing them there at the time.
This is their current Free Skate to Malificent: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHKR8leSS-8
And their Short to 'Tiny Dancer': https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFOjR5Ja_kU
Some of the elements do still need work but they have some neat lifts and a really nice energy and dynamic on the ice.
