FP/M really surprised me. Was not expecting that quality from especially Maurizio. Maurizio is a perfect example of how you may not have the talent but if you put the hard work in, you can improve.
I am personally puzzled at how Lobacheva & Averbukh placed so high in the compulsories here at SLC. I personally had them much lower in the standings. All I can see when I watch them are their tense handholds and flat edges.
@@clay9360 Very laboured indeed. I had A&P in a clear first, either the Italians or the Canadians in second, the Lithuanians or Bulgarians in fourth with L&A way down in the rankings. I remember watching a comparison video of L&A skating this compulsory dance at the 2002 Worlds with some of the teams ranked outside of the top 5 (specifically Navka & Kostomarov, Grushina & Goncharov, and Winkler & Lohse) and L&A were definitely the worst of the bunch.
L/A had very poor matching free legs, and very poor timing, and edges. God. How did they manage to medal at all in their career. It's almost insufferable to watch.

Wow. You’re right. Not much toe point, flat edges and not as fast as others. As a result, it looked labored.

They are lucky that they competed for Russia. Otherwise, they would have never seen any sort of medal of any kind.
