On the other hand, if I were the parent of a 12- to 15-year-old female pair skater who was ready to start learning triple twists and triple throws and lasso lifts, I'd rather have her learn them with a young man who is more physically and emotionally mature than with a boy close to her own age.
True.
And I think we sometimes forget how dangerous pair skating is for the male partner. The men need strong nerves, maturity can certainly help.

I would never think of "crazy differences" about them, because of their programs :). He's like her older brother, both protective and challenging. And their height difference is average, 32 cm. Dmitrii is rather short for a pair skater (175 cm) so it's quite possible that in two years time she will be too tall to continue together. Hopefully not...

I definitely didn’t mean crazy difference in a bad way at all, they’re actually my favorite junior pairs team. I honestly think they’re height difference is pretty cute and I also get that older brother vibe.
