@LLLLutz Please. B&S had a horrible triple twist where they crashed together. G&G have much more slid throws, B&S have quite unsteady ones. G&G also have more consistent jumps. B&S were dominated by S&P, and you think they are better than G&G haha.

@LLLLutz I say to you in italian: MA NON DICIAMO CAZZATE......

I still think what I thought in 1994. M&D should have won gold. I think M&D had a lot of negative press around their partnership and that hurt them more than anything else. People wanted to buy into G&G's fairy-tale and they did. While they had glorious lifts and a whopping 3twist at the opening, I didn't feel so much passion as much as just checking the elements off.

@LLLLutz "I find". That's your interpretation. Get over it.

i like how they skate as if they were one and at the same time so into each other. such love like their seems so pure and untouchable especially in today's generation.

wow. their jumps are SO STRONG. that throw triple sal was seriously perfect.

I like that the ending of their romeo and julet program is the beginning of their moonlight sonato program

@LLLLutz Well, I'm not sure. B&S were a different pair than G&G. The former being faster and had more difficulty. The later were perfect at what they did. Just compare the way Anton used to throw Elena: lack of form, wild throws, and tight lands by Elena. G&G had even more passion, something we did not see from B&S in 2001-2002
@oravaskvirel There's no different interpretations to flow and lines and I find B&S being better at those, including the edging. The fact that they were able to skate as fast as G&G and sometimes faster, doing far more difficult transitions and skating in closer holds, means they did have better flow. Technical difficulty is sbs triples vs axels, loop throw vs axel throw, and yes - difficult transitions/choreography always make the skating more difficult .

I`m not agree! How you can compare B&S with G&G who was the best pair ever existed? Nobody could glide like G&G, nobody did such difficult jumps and throws. Watch B&S programs: she always had a fall on her jumps. And G&G was always flawless. Their Moonlight sonata - it`s not a program. It`s an art. If G&G competed now, they would beat everybody, even Savchenko/Szolkowy.
G&G - the best pair in a skating history.
