And even if they were close, the music choice would be my tie breaker. Seriously, I can't stand another Bolero (that includes you, Carolina Kostner), unless you can top Torvill and Dean. If you can't, don't even bother.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6387050766907671577.post-83230944420105547772013-01-26T06:00:49.606-08:002013-01-26T06:00:49.606-08:00There is more to pairs skating than side by side t...There is more to pairs skating than side by side triple lutzs. I like D/R but I think overall S/S and V/T are better skaters.

Clean program with side-by-side triple lutzes and triple salchows.
