There is no way, even with the fall, that DW are that far ahead. No disrespect to DW, since they are wonderful skaters, but 5 points better than Tessa and Scott? We are not watching the same competition.

Not sure why you guys are surprised. Tessa and Scott only got level 3 on 2 elements. . .and clearly it doesn't help when you help your competition by falling on your ass and give points away, What is surprising is how Tessa and Scott stayed above Natalie and Fabian by that much of a margin.

I absolutely love the look Scott gives Tessa at 0:28. Not only is it amazing, but it also shows just how great these two are into getting in character.

This is becoming so old! In response to the last (snide) commentary, V&M were scored above B/P due to many factors that anyone with skating knowledge & understanding of COP would be able to detect ... just as D&W stayed ahead of P&W even tho' he fell in COR. If you don't have this knowledge, why wade into the fray just to sound off?

[binkerrrrr]

@roycemints yes they are really creative in terms of choreography but the reason why P/B are scored too low is because they need to work on the technical aspects

honestly, this sport is becoming like pairs now it only cares about the technical elements

@gchardy She did not tripped him, he fell on his own. He switched hand, did a simple left crossed threeturn and fell because his weight was a bit too much on the heel. Scott has high heel boots (at least 2.5", much higher than freestyle). Sometimes, advanced ice dancers fall on silly things such as simple threeturns or mohawks, but not on choctaws or counters& rockers. FYI, high heel skates give ice dancers longer lines, better pointed toes...

I love both Virtue & Moir and Davis and White. However, I am quite astounded at the evaluation of difficulty of the DW routine. The difficulty is evaluated by a specialist. Up until the cup of Russia 3 weeks ago, 3 of the 5 elements from DW were level 3. Now, suddenly, they all get level 4. This is rather surprising. I have watched all the routines from DW but can't seem to see such an improvement. Can somebody help with this ?

[roycemints]

@binkerrrrr Who should P/B go to? Z/S are the only ones who really know the COP but they already have so many teams. Besides, I like the programs that Team Detroit has put out this year. very creative.

[roycemints]

@gchardy lol Theresa? You think you're so clever, don't you? Her name is on top of the video & it's even on the side videos. Scott fell cause his blade got caught w/ hers. They skate really close together. Tessa has already changed her stroking and she's feeling better this year. They became Olympic champions with her in pain so I'm sure they can do more now that she's healthy.

[binkerrrrr]

@roycemints yeah P/B are great skaters but they need to change coaches imo

[binkerrrrr]

@hiroismyhomeboy they should get an extra point for that tbh

Haha, I just laugh at the animosity b/w some Moir/Virtue and Davis/White fans. I love watching both of those teams as a neutral fan, so may the best come out on top this weekend! :)
