Savchenko & Szokolwy - the Mission - Throw triple flip with amazing height, clean. sbs triple toe, Robin falls out and they elect not to do the sequence. Flying into triple twist, well done. Pull through into toe overhead, and I do not like the position she does while he is in spread eagle. Spiral sequence. I know they're fast, their choreography is intricate and they're very technically good. But they leave me completely cold. Spread eagle into lasso lift. Besti squat into throw triple sal, clean. Spread eagle into sbs double axel double toe sequence, she singled. sbs spins with unison problems. Straight-line footwork, they seem to be in better shape than some of the teams in the last group, as they are keeping their speed up. Star lift right out of a dance position. They win for most uniqute lift entrances. Back outside death spiral. I think I'm actually sick of these "unique" death spirals. Pair spin. Definitely not going to challenge for gold, leaves the door wide open for Pang & Tong for silver.
