2021 Worlds: Pairs' Free Skate

[moonvine]

Oh no a disaster. I feel bad for them.

Anastasiia reminds me a little of Amber Glenn

 

[rollerblade]

This music is unfortunately going to bring about unfavorable comparison

At least they aren't skating in the same group.

 

[s_parks]

Geez, whenever freak accidents happen I'm just reminded how freakin hard pairs is. And the mental hurdle for both partners to keep going and do the rest of the elements. Mistake aside, I really like their overall look and think they have great potential.

 

[Vilord]

Was this the pair that did so well at junior worlds one or two years ago?

 

[Seven Sisters]

Putting aside the scary bit for a minute, I thought that these two also look to be a pair to watch for the future. Both have some dramatic flair, and they interact nicely.

 

[CrazyKittenLady]

The jump would be too low.

Yeah, but would it be invalidated or just get negative GOE?

Agree! I feared it would be total disaster, it wasn't, but they're gonna be dissapointed

 

[SpiffySpiders]

You know what's a really bad idea for an up-and-coming skater/pair? Skating to music identified with a champion skater/pair. This is Sui/Han's music and these two, despite their good qualities, won't look as strong as they could by comparison.

Lift issue aside, these two seem like they have lots to build on. They're young too, so I expect to see them grow stronger.

 

[s_parks]

Well, checking their bio he's a '99er and her '05er. Very young pair, really promising. A learning experience; I remember the lift that didn't happen for S/H in 2012 worlds FS.

 

[litenkyckling]

could've been worse really - good for them

 

[Vilord]

Yeah, but would it be invalidated or just get negative GOE?

My guess is negative GOE but not sure

 

[SaraM]

Aliona was listed as theyre coach!

 

[flanker]

Huh, Zhuk/Bidar will finish 16th at worst, which means direct qualification for the olympics

 

[LadyB]

Was this the pair that did so well at junior worlds one or two years ago?

Yeah, the only non-Russian pair in the JGPFinal.

 

[cathlen]

The camrea work is not the best...

 

[EdgeCall]

A very nice, regal-looking outfit for Annika. And Robert's outfit barely avoids looking like a training dress ...

 

[ancientpeas]

The Hungarians are slowly moving up.

 

[Vilord]

Yeah, the only non-Russian pair in the JGPFinal.

Thanks. They did seem familiar but their ISU bio was empty so I was unsure

 

[Gourlie]

Yeah, but would it be invalidated or just get negative GOE?

Just negative GOE if they cheated it well.
