2017 Worlds Pairs SP

Qualification rule: The best 16 skaters after Short Program will advance to the next segment. ;)

I know the rule :D I was wondering how this threshold is set (16 out of 28 is less than 60%, for men we have 24 out of 35 more than 65%)
 
Wow 75.23! Totally didn't expect that! :shocked:

They will attack the medals. But I don't think they should, there better pairs.

They probably wont medal here unless at least one of the top pairs bombs (cleanish S/M, S/H, S/K, D/R and maybe even T/M with their new shiny medals may beat that). But still, it is impressive and a statement for next year.
 
The North Korean team did great too!! The pairs are looking good!!
 
I REALLY like these two, I wish we got to see them perform more! They seem to really enjoy it and honestly they're a lot better than a lot of the European teams we're forced to see over and over at Senior B's...

28 pairs is actually surprising.

They can't easily change the number qualifying for the FS due to a few issues, mainly the "4 pairs per warmup group" and "one ice resurfacing per FS" scheduling things
