It's because they both fell.

Can't believe they're behind M/B

right!!!

It was a beautiful lift but he lost his balance with Yuko still in his arms during the exit. She fell on him.

59.59 in 4th place. How much does such a fall cost?

 

[jcoates]

It looked like Yuko was slightly ahead of Sasha in exiting the lift and he got slightly backward on his heel. The combination of the two just seemed to pull him down and she crashed on top of him. A freak accident to my eye.

 

[blue_idealist]

Holy crap, and B/L fall at the end of the program!!

 

[snowflake]

Another fall

Well, not funny if it costs them deductions?

 

[tulosai]

OMG. Wow. Another fall. Far from B/L's best anyway. Their placement will be interesting.

 

[paircheck]

hey whats up on the ice L fell @ the end

was the music over????

 

[Mirunna]

This is ridiculous. B/L both fell on their ending pose. Russian couples are doomed tonight. Come on V/T! Break the jinx!

 

[Spun Silver]

Oh my goodness, Russians are jinxed today. So weird!

 

[treeloving]

B/L's fall

 

[Nadine]

I honestly haven't liked any of the Russian Pairs since the 90's; this generation is blah. And not just them, they're all soul-less, robots, automons.

 

[Violet Bliss]

Another Russian freak fall. At least they had finished their program. Similar to Sale/Pelltier's fall on ending pose.

I would have B/L in front of K/S...I'm not sure by how much.
No penalty. Hmmm...

 

[skatinginbc]

What's going on with the Russian teams, falling at the most unexpected places? Alexander SMIRNOV is sexy. He has Daisuke-like dancing quality.

I guess it was deemed that the fall was after the music/program had stopped. It was the corect call in my opinion. They hit the pose, he wobbled, the music stopped, he went down.
