If anything saves them at this point, it is the PCS score. They are the only team in this group so far that has the look and skating ability of a senior team. Every other team looks really juniorish. The TES is going to kill them though.
Yes, there is no refinement or elegance in US pairs skating. It's like none of them have ever attended a ballet class in their life, save Caitlin Yankowskas.

Sandra keeps saying "imagine this team at their 5 year mark"
dude, it's US pairs skating - I can't imagine something that will never happen. We're lucky if a team sticks it out for 3 years.

Did you not watch Gretchen Donlan? She has some of the best lift positions in the world. She's more balletic then even Caitlin i think.
