as hard as i try to watch the left of the screen, i cant. virtue and moir have more raw emotion, are crisper, cleaner, closer together, etc.  virtue and moir are far more talented.

V&M also have better leg and arm lines as well as cleaner and more precise movement and positions.

V&M's performance looks more cleaner..its also sharper than B&A...Also V&M's outfits stood out more than B&A's...which practically blended w/ the ice floor..I liked B&A too actually..they are very swift in their skating & very presentable..yet I like the chemistry that V&M show more than that of V&M

@ChachouMiaou i agree with the camera angle, and obviously the black costumes. b/a blended more with the ice surface while v/m in black stood out more against the ice. i do have to say v/m was more consistent with their timing than b/a.

@tinymavy Thank you! I was trying to understand why I always felt that Belbin/Agosto skated very slowly and heavily sometimes and you're totally right, it's because they're slower in their movements

[Toreshichan]

@twilso96 black makes their lines look SO much better though :)

[tinymavy]

Virtue and Moir are quicker in their movements. With this comparison it is easy to see Tanith is the lesser of the four skaters, understandable since she switched to ice dance after doing pairs.

definetly virtue and moir ,, tanith and belbin seem like their missing something

[xProdigy]

Virtue and Moir definitely had a cleaner and more precise skate. Also, I found it neat that B&A wore white and V&M wore black. xD

[LOLyzel]

I completely forgot there was even a left screen the moment Virtue and Moir danced.

[munchkinthecat]

I give the edge to Virtue/Moir.

Really? What other similar-sounding Anglo-Saxon names are there?
