It is a hard choice. But I prefer S/K.
V/T skate very good as a pair. High speed, very good body interaction. They are a real couple and every element is well defined and with the maximum of power.
S/K are real artists. Brave, strong and big SBS jumps. They are progessive and I am really excited to see their programs the next two years. I like the cool atmosphere who is between them. She is a spectacular interpretator.
Can they take the gold medal in 2018?
Thanks for your opinion.
Is Fyodor a good match to Ksenia? Can he upgrade their lifts? It seems like she is better than him by a mile, how can he match her level?
I think what makes T/V golden is that they are a good match as a pair team. (sport related).

Can they take the gold medal in 2018?
I do not like to talk about 2018. There are two years left and we all do not know what will happen till then. All pairs can be injuried and the elements are so hard and risky that it can be a match for all pairs at this special day - including savchenko/massot and even Tarasova/Morozov.
I like Fedor very much. There are some girls who shine very bright (Ksenia and Aljona). And this type of women need partner´s who are much more calm and reserved. Robin made it very nice in the past.
S/K´s lift are not that strong. But IMO the lifts are not the most important thing in pairs. The throws and jumps are the crackers. Since Quads are not allowed at the SP, PCS and GOE in the SP is really important, too.
Probably, if they're going to compete. Mind you, they have it in them to skip the Olympics to prepare for the next Olympics.Can they take the gold medal in 2018?

The Bollywood still needs more polish imo. I love their big elements, especially that gorgeous twist, but that not-so-mirrored step sequence was kinda bad and messy. Now I don't expect pairs skaters to have the level of complexity and details in footwork, but the step sequence's choreo is not crisp/intricate enough for me.Kavaguti/Smirnov have the best material of all the Russian teams.
But anyway, going to have to go with V/T. I like their Bollywood SP a lot. While I think S/K have the more sophisticated LP (it really is a masterpiece), they just don't have the chemistry to carry it off as well as I"d like them to.
