now i really like this couple. so much potential, and i like their technical skills and musicality. but like what one commentator said, there's something missing in this couple, and that something could break their chances of taking olympic or worlds gold.
they have the confidence in their performances, but they dont seem to have that champions' aura or sophistication. sometimes, they even come off a little too bland. take tessa's expression. i find her smile in FDs to be lacking in the dynamics department. not like katia gordeeva. katia may smile a lot in her programs (both in pairs and singles), but she has more than enough repertoire in her expressions that she keeps her programs well beyond the charm of just the smile.
then there's their costumes. they do have very elegant costumes, but sometimes they come off as too simple. zoueva does have that ethic, as evidenced by her work with g&g, but g&g's costumes have had more detailing to command such attention to themselves as champions.
all these may not overtly affect their standings, but somehow, as what one british commentator has remarked, that little ooomph could go a long way for them.

I myself really DO love them!!! As a matter of fact..they were the ones that inspired me to want to learn to Ice-Dance. I sure hope they continue as a Partnership for years.
