Two fashion wrongs don't make a fashion right! OMG! Not a pretty sight.
You think this is bad? I just went out for an afternoon X-country ski in a local park and got approached by a photographer from one of my city's two major newspapers wainting to take a picture of me because "there's nothing really happening in the city."
You guys are killing me dead. (please keep posting)
You mean there's such a thing as killing someone alive?

Someone said Elizaveta Tuktamysheva/Mae Berenice Meite will be formidable!!! How I didn't think of this? Their huge SBS jumps would be FABULOUS!!!
The athleticism of this pair will be over the top!!
It was me. Yes, they could do SBS monster lutzes and maybe even 3axels! Plus they are both so fierce and gorgeous.

I really wish I hadn't read this thread before going to bed last night. Because I woke up at 3 this morning, and couldn't get back to sleep because I was thinking about who I could pair up with who! 
I have come up with a few partnerships that I could only dream of, but they are just wrong on so many levels!
Firstly, I would like to see these two girls form a pairs partnership. Purely because I fancy them! (OK, so I know it would never work, given that there is only a 2 inch difference in height between them! But, I can still fantasize!)
During the Gala at Europeans, we saw an ingenious routine where Viktoria and Joshi Helgesson were trying to beat each other at doing particular moves. But, I would quite like to see them do an actual Pairs routine together. Given their different styles of skating, it would be interesting to see how each of them adjust to doing a joint routine. And, if one of them did something wrong, how the other would react!
Over the years, we have seen many sibling partnerships in Dance and Pairs. But, I would like to see what twin partnerships are like. So, for example, we could have Anne-Line and Camilla Gjersem, or Vanessa and Melyssa James, or Piper and Alexe Gilles. (I deliberately did not mention Gracie and Carly Gold – that would just be overloading on the cute factor having them skating together!)
Pairs would probably be better for doing this than Dance. I don’t want to see twins playing a couple – that would just be weird. But, it would be fascinating to see what the synchronicity is like.
Having seen them messing about to music together off-ice, I would also like to see Vanessa James do a proper routine on-ice with Mae-Berenice Meite. Given that they are total eejits when they get together, it would be interesting to see how this would translate into a skating partnership. Although, I think they would be better doing Gala routines than competition routines!
Moving onto Ice Dance, and the evil streak in me would love to see Elena Ilinykh and Viktoria Sinitsina skating together. Partly because they are both stunningly beautiful, but mainly because I want to see what they would be like towards each other, given the events of the past year!
Oh, stop me now!

With all the early talk of Jason, surprised that his single, double and triple throw Salchows session with Simon Shnapir has not shown up.
As for how to do this, I like Moxiejan idea that it might be a good idea to keep partners of similar size and explore what they can do. I think each should have to do some of each roll. For instance Jason could throw Hanyu in throw quad Salchow and Hanyu could throw Jason in a twist throw. Each does some of each role.
If overhead twists are too demanding on same size couples, maybe allow for more of a hit a position throw then a focus on revolutions. Imagine Hanyu throwing Jason up into a Russian split jump and catching him. That might be more doable than twists and would still look great and be comparable. Maybe skaters could look at positions ballet dancers hit in leaps for instance and the focus could be a beautiful artful position that is then caught.

After watching this I'm sure Meite can throw Liza for even a quad. http://instagram.com/p/zzvfriyj4J/

I think it would be lovely to see Evan and Johnny Weir skate together after all their bickering - maybe some theme that love conquers all. Perhaps Johnny in a white almost bridal/chiffony look and Evan in a dark (Vera Wang of course) no. with ombre done vertically so they would have grey on one side of their costume as the two meld together to become one and put aside their past fighting.

I believe there is some former porn star who skated in the gay or whatever they call the m games and he was an ex skater or an adult skater. I think he was from like Holland or something and he was quite lyrical and elegant. So some of them can skate for sure.
This would be amazing! But what about pairs? They have the height difference isn't? (I don't know how tall is Carolina but Tatiana is like 1.60).but now on a serious note.. I'd really love to see Volosozhar and kostner try ice dancing together.

Carolina is almost 1m70. So 10cm apart.
I thought Kostner was much taller (in my eyes she always looked taller
). I'll be ice dance I guess.And I'm all in for Javier/Yuzuru
1m70 is pretty tall for a female skater. She's one of the tallest ladies, so that probably makes her seem even taller than she is because others are shorter next to her.I thought Kostner was much taller (in my eyes she always looked taller

Try this on for size, Adam Rippon and Michelle Kwan! :yes:
And it's true that Nam's skating skill might look glaring beside Yuzuru. So maybe Javi/Nam.
It seems Javi and Nam are already training for pairs
