Yes I'm also reading this I already saw this idea somewhere on the goldenskate, IIRC. The idea is nice, but I don't think it would help somehow. There are already so many good pairs in Russia(V/T as the number 1, then K/S and S/K and then young couples-Tarasova/Morozov, Astakhova/Rogonov, Fedorova/Miroshkin(altough Max is injured now).

Bit of a disaster skate. Ambitious difficulty, but they weren't succesful with any

that too
+ if more & more pairs go ala Duhamel/Radford & try ultra C it would be even more difficult for a girl who recovered from an injury

ugh poor chinese
Its so unusual to see a chn pair that make mistakes:hopelessness:

V/T and K/S most likely will reture after Korea and Lina can't jump sooo...
And Proklova can do lutz if you know what i mean)

I get it...if you think to the future after 2018, then it really isn't a bad idea at all
