Tanith Belbin and Benjamin Agosto (USA)

Technical Elements = 23.40
Program Componants = 38.97

Total = 62.37

Currently 1st

[SailorGalaxia518]

Tatiana Navka and Roman Kostomarov (RUS)

Technical Elements = 23.50
Program Componants = 41.80

Total = 65.30

1st place

1. Navka/Kostomarov (RUS)
2. Belbin/Agosto (USA)
3. Chait/Sakhnovsky (ISR)

This is truly shocking not only is Denkova and Staviski finish 4th but the gap between Belbin and Agosto and Navka and Kostomarov are a little less than 3 points.

The question becomes: Can Belbin and Agosto win????????

 

[Ptichka]

Just looked at the detailed scores. PCS for Navka & Kostomarov seem suspicious at best. They have all components between 8.25 and 8.40 while no other team has theirs reach 8.0. That's bull! I like N&K, perhaps they do deserve to be in 1st, but there is no way their "moves in the field" can be 0.6 higher than anyone else.

 

[Piel]

Way to go B&A and C&S! Either of these teams winning would make me very happy.

 

[Antilles]

I'd like to see what happened to D&S. Very happy for B&A. I agree that N&K's scores seem suspicious. They don't do everything better than everyone else. Nice to see that D&L at least aren't in 6th. I hope they don't drop in the free.

 

[Eeyora]

I am also shocked about D/SWhat happened? I am happy for Belbin and Agosto. This does seem a little odd about N/K. I like their skating. But is far from perfect.
