2015 JGP Riga Cup Pairs SP Aug 27

The cheerleader in me is coming out and saying, "WHY ARE YOU WEARING THOSE EARRINGS?! THEY'RE A SAFETY HAZARD!!!"
 
Lindsey & Jacob remind me of Seguin & Bilodeau a bit! Shame about the bobbles, but overall very elegant :)
 
Lindsay WEINSTEIN / Jacob SIMON (USA)

Music: Symphony No. 6

Dark blue costume w/ stones

PCoSp3p
2Tw
3STh - twofoot, stepout/hand down
2F - 'Rippon
StSq - she stumbles/hand down
4Li
BoDs

Most elegant so far, but some jarring mistakes

SP: 21.61+19.17 = 40.78, 4/5
 
Same! I was so sad when he broke up with Zhang Mingyang. They had so much potential!

That's the annoying part of it. When a couple that you think has potential only lasts one season.

One season is rarely enough to know if a partnership is going to go places or not. For me, you need at least two.

So, I wonder if Xie Zhong is impatient and expects success straight away. Or if he is just hard to work with, and the girls can't put up with him!

My junior pairs preciouses! :cheer.

Really hope they can stay in the medals...

Imagine if those two pairs develop well and go head to head as favourites in 2022 or something!? I'd still have to pull for S/B, because Wes Anderson :biggrin:
 
very good from 2nd Chinese team!! :cheer: but i am afraid she might be taller than him in the future :biggrin:

Solid debut, but some little mistakes

SP: 23.88+18.65 = 42.53, 3/6
 
Have to say, I was underwhelmed with Zhao / Xie.

She's happy with the score, but he isn't.

Perhaps he IS the type that expects instant success! :eek:

Rediculous that we are already having a resurfacing after only 6 competitors. And with only 3 to go!

With the Chinese pairs, it would be hard to imagine that the federation/powers that be don't have a lot to do with forming and breaking up pairs...

Probably should have stuck with Zhang Mingyang. :biggrin:

Needless to say, I have a feeling Zhao's height is probably going to become a major problem in the future. And she's only 15!
