2017 GP NHK Trophy Pairs SP

And well, considering they are behind A/R in TES, they could use some beating.
I dunno what else could help, I suppose they are training hard already, maybe a spank will motivate them to go for that Oly gold.

You know Fedor was okayed to resume training lifts&throws etc only in September, right?

They've already showed a LOT of improvement since their first comp (Finlandia) so I wouldn't say it's a lack of motivation that's been the problem...

Sarah... one more we need to get rid of

She never learned her lesson last season.

I missed Kristina and Alexei - looks like they pushed some envelope there, finally, hope 'La la land' will be successful also!

They were really good!

Interesting...it was the combo spin that got a level 2 for S/H not the steps...S/K still have some levels they can improve

 

[GGFan]

I love how Ksenia and Aliona manage to singlehandedly pull in 9s for interpretation

 

[LadyB]

Klimov is too gorgeous for this world

Now that's a statement I wholeheartedly support!

 

[4everchan]

Oh no.. OH NO. He's not even in Japan.

I might have to take custody of Poje just to preserve his virtue. He could come to my house and reach all the things on my highest shelves and help me change lightbulbs.

his virtue or moir's?

I'm on the other side of the planet, you know? Not going to scare me

Interesting that their StSq GOE is all over the place too...

Hmmm. They had spin level issues in CoC, too.

i heard sarah's daughter was lost somewhere in eastern europe or russia. i guess that may be more dangerous...

Seems like the weird entry feature thing they do doesn't always catch on.

It's got to be his virtue. Moir's mine.

I kind of like it; it looks cool :agree: but maybe the judge don't ...

Lovely to see S/K getting better. I love love love Ksenia poise and dramatic movement. I loved her smile at the end. I think from the all programs i saw for the pairs this year, their has the most Oly feeling to me. They have to work a lot, a lot to be medal contenders and i don't see them getting near Sui/Han in such a short time, but i hope they will do their best at the Oly.

Sui/ Han are so great, really, no pair is so great as them the last couple of year, but i don't feel their programs this year and they let me cold... Last year they were so special, i had probably too big expectations from them.

K it is timeeeee to get rid of that spin... too risky to be losing points left and right.

Don't worry they are going to be performing some sort of flesh sacrifice!

Maybe S/H should go back to their previous spins because ever since they started to do this new one I could think of four times it messed them up already. Even if they do not lose level that first position seems notoriously hard to center and maintain for long. They always either lose GOE for travelling or lose levels for not enough revolutions.

I wouldn't trust Moir's virtue with you around

Too bad. I like it, but if that is what's causing the lost levels, they're probably gonna change it...
