They can't. Because they don't know anything about technique. That's why they are trying to insinuate that she should not have won because she is "fat".Comments re: skating are fine but comments about weight are disgusting. Pick the skating apart if you want.
Anyway, another thing that affects the Shibs' PCS probably is that they (still) skate small on the ice whereas V/M skate big.
Did V/M re-arrange their elements or place some of them earlier in the FD? I remember the elements being timed differently to the music which I think worked much better before. I don't remember that big pose section after the dance spin. It seemed like a big empty spot compared to what it was like previously. I preferred the FD during the GP series.
They have changed a few things especially in their diagonal step sequence and therefore the choreo twizzles are later than before, for example. Personally I preferred the older choreography and the previous version of the spin, and I think their interpretation at NHK was the best one up to now.
Anyway, I think Tessa and Scott never give their best when they aren't particularly challenged by their adversaries: which is why they usually aren't that great at Nationals, so I think it makes sense that their best performances these season have been the ones against Gabi and Guillaume.
Are you saying they don't see the Shibs as real challengers?
I always thought that Davis and White were ill-matched in their packaging. My daughter described it as "surfer/stoner dude" and "ice princess/ballerina".
... what you'd get if you matched Maia Shibutani with Cizeron...
Probably not as much as PapCiz... I mean it's totally possible that next month they end up winning Worlds, but I think in Tessa and Scott's mind their main competition is represented by the French and rightfully so, since they came into this season with a lot of momentum and they haven't lost a competition in more than a year except to V/M.
Also (I might be totally wrong though), but based on their VERY LONG history together, I think for Tessa and Scott Maia and Alex will always be the little kids who they used to tease all the time, therefore they might find it difficult to see the Shibs as real competition. That doesn't mean Maia and Alex have no chance at beating them (although it's not the most likely thing short-term)
Never cared much for Virtue and Moir's programs. They always seem the same to me and rather boring. What an ugly dress, it makes her look like she is overweight.
Jeez, I wish I was as overweight as Tessa Virtue...
I've never thought she looked overweight (even to be a figure skater), but this season she definitely looks thinner, so I don´t understand those previous comments about she looking fat.
and the comments about her dress being horrible, well, I don´t think is horrible but being she so pretty I was a little disappointed with her dresses this season, but her costume for SD

V/M have said all season that they see the Shibs as real challengers. Why not take them at their word?
V/M did not reached the top being confident and underestimating to their rivals. It would be very stupid of their part consider as only threate to P/C. And precisely because Tessa and Scott trained with Maia and Alex, they more than anyone should be surprised how far have Shibs come. The Shibs are gaining momentum while P/C are losing it, that is a fact.

Tessa is a gorgeous, thin and strong woman. And she would be gorgeous whether or not she was thin. I feel sorry for anyone who can't see that.

Let's here it for the slacker boy! Good thing he had his big sister, the princess-balerina to keep him in line.
In real life, Charlie can be as serious-minded as the next surfer dude. But oh well.
