Four Continents 2012 - Virtue/Moir & Davis/White Comparison

I sure wasn't expecting that. Wasn't expecting for Tessa and Scott to be this fascinating at all. They were striking in the transitions and turns and there is no doubt that this program has been edited tremendously. They added some transitions that were missing. Finally! I'm so happy that they've seen the missing parts that needed to be filled. The beginning of the program was just so boring now it has amazingly fluent movements that are enchanting. Tessa looks radiant. As much as Tessa and Scott's first 45 sec. of the program was eye-chatching Meryl and Charlie's program seemed so flat. I couldn't live that feeling which I usually have when I watch them. I believe as much as they are technically exellent when they don't have the energy to bring the dance alive the adjective magical flies away from the window or this program. All of the lifts were accomplished tremendously in Virtue & Moir's Funny face. Especially the long lift was best that I've ever seen from them. I used to think that there was always something wrong with this lift where she struggles in the transition of different positions but this time it was solid and flowing. They really risen up high and took the peak point of the music above with it then callobrate it. But somehow Meryl and Charlie struggled in their circular lift and they usually used to take the music where it belongs to when Meryl rises up and like I used to say "she flies and touches the blue sky" but she had difficult moment up there leaving her hands from Charlie's shoulders. What a shame to a wonderful lift. They were both great in footwork sequences but Charlie and Meryl were outstanding as always in the twizlles but they both unsynchronized just a little tiny
 bit so were both teams were equal to me in this segment. By the way, Meryl and Charlie were literally out of breath at the end of the program. I have never seen them like this. They both leaned foward and it was an awkward moment because performers usually doesn't aware the jury that they are exhausted especially Mery and Charlie. Just look at the picture. Something obviously didn't go well for them but they hold it together. Well done Mery and Charlie' Overall, just to make a quick summary their performances and timing were both in the right place but in terms of scoring Tesa and Scott deserved to be higher this time and they have +3,5 Base value so it was inevitable for them to win Gold.
